4 Catholic Study Bibles You Need (And How to Use Them) | LITTLE BY LITTLE | Fr Columba Jordan CFR

[@ctmcatholic]

Which other study bibles and commentaries do you like to use? In addition to the ones Fr Columba mentions, we're fans of The Great Adventure Bible by Ascension Press and The Word on Fire Bibles.

[@christinastanley2944]

Thank you for this Father! I started the The Bible in a Year w/ Fr. Mike. It helps to start there if you are intimidated by the bible. You realize it is God telling us his story, which is our story. Once you get that it is God telling us how much he loves you, studying the Bible becomes a real joy! 😍😍😍

[@skittles3791]

During my time in college, I discovered that as I researched I gained more insight by making it into a conversation. I would "pretend" that I was sitting at a table with these authors from hundreds of years ago drinking coffee. During these sessions of reading (and drinking coffee), I would simply have a conversation with them. I would question what I read and say something like, "good point, but according to this guy over here..." and so forth. I would then interject with my own thoughts. After a while, I would have my research papers written. My professor loved this idea when she discovered that I did this and said that she would recommend it to her future students. (Sorry for the long post). I think I will apply this when studying the Bible and commentaries. God Bless!!

[@ctmcatholic]

Haha I love that, thanks for sharing Samantha :)

[@MrCheesywaffles]

That's a grand suggestion, many might find that helpful.

[@Forester-]

You should read some of the Catena Aurea, the text followed by a variety of excerpts from Church Fathers. The format has always given me that feeling of sitting at a table listening to them go back and forth with each other.

[@mikeweller2124]

My personal favorite is the Jerusalem Study Bible (our of print). I bought the Ignatius Study Bible due to the respect I have for Ignatius Press and a few KZbin recommendations. I found the text very readable. Unfortunately, the commentaries and notes didn't seem to add much. Many notes essentially re-iterated the text; other notes tried to inject theological debates that were not supported by the literal text; other notes seemed to be one side of an argument the editors were having with an unknown opponent. One useful note pointed out that in Romans, St Paul used the term "works" for ritual religious practices such as circumcision or animal sacrifices, unlike St James use of works to indicate works of mercy. This may be a good first study bible for Catholics beginning to read the scripture. Ignatus Press also publishes the Didache Bible with all the notes referring back to the Catholic Catechism. I wish Ignatius press would come out with a bible commentary on the Fathers interpretation of the scripture.

[@PadraigTomas]

I have an app which has the commentary of the Haydock Bible, which is in print. The Haydock Bible uses the Douai Rheims translation. I've found the Haydock commentary to be useful.

[@loveisall5520]

As someone old enough to be your father, my love affair with the Holy Bible stretches well over a half century. As a teenager a half century ago, reading the Bible in a year did more for me than anything else. I just bought a new translation (for me) and am reading it cover to cover. It's rather like hearing a familiar symphony, only with a new orchestra and new conductor. Best wishes from a guy in Texas and may God bless you.

On the last day of my wife's RCIA class, our parish was giving away books. I couldn't believe that they had the Ignatius Study Bible! I also have it in my Verbum software. I have a few printed Navarre commentaries from the New Testament and have the entire Old Testament in verbum. You can markup verbum as much as you want and if you get tired of it, just delete the highlights. My study of scripture is how I converted to Catholicism after being Presbyterian over 50 years.

[@glennlanham6309]

How expensive is Verbum?

[@JesusfoundedCatholicChurch]

@@glennlanham6309 As cheap or as expensive as you want it to be. You can start off with the free version then add the paid versions or content you want. I started with the free Logos version and bought the NIV and nrsv when I was Protestant then after conversion, upgraded to Verbum and bought the Catholic Bible.

[@MomHarper]

I have the Ignatius Study Bible and love it. I just purchased The Catholic Study Bible Third Edition based on recommendation. I also take my own notes. I currently reading The Gospel of Luke.

[@ctmcatholic]

Wonderful! Bless you in your studying of scripture.

[@ateam388]

I recommend the Great adventure: A Catholic Guide to the Old Testament book. So good! Along with the great adventure Bible. The way they break down the Bible into twelve color coded periods along with the Bible in a year with Father Mike is so good. I grew up catholic and in my forties now. It’s a shame it’s taken this long for the Bible to finally make sense, but a blessing to finally have a good Bible study program. I have the Ignatius New Testament study Bible and really enjoy it too. I’m also looking forward to an Ignatius Old Testament study bible. I hope they make one. Anyways, God bless!!!

Thank you for this video Fr Columba! Especially for what you said about having concerns about interpretation. I will remember this, 'so long as it's not contrary to charity and church teaching and other scripture then it's fine'. That's a big relief! :)

[@adrianaansaldi9248]

COVID lock downs was wonderful for us in many ways because we were forced to slow down and though the most NO churches closed their doors we found that the old rites churches didn’t, amazing how God works His ways and shows us the path of truth, anyway, we started to read the Bible with my husband on Sundays, and though I thought the Bible was complicated and full of symbolisms that wasn’t our experience at all, everything uncover before our eyes in a manner that we are surprised really, and the Bible is pretty literal actually, Jesus talks through parables but those are very easy to see what He is referring about, and then the OT is very straightforward, the problem I see now it is that Modernism is the one who has to conciliar the theory of Evolution or Darwin with Creation so there is when the “ symbolic part” start, trying to concise two different and opposite world views. Summarizing, OT very straightforward, the history of Creation and the Jew people as the first people who stayed faithful to God, or Al least they came back to the God of Abraham time to time, really they forgot God very fast. New Testament, the history and teachings of the Messiah or God incarnation in humanity. If it is something I found lacking in the Bible is that we don’t have more information of Jesus but as our priest said once, God provided the info we need to know not what we want per se. What gospel is the more significant to me? St John, he converted me, I cry still when I read him and in English, I needed to understand who is God in order to follow Him and then go deeper, and John did that to me, he gave the dimension of the Divine, it’s hard in a relativist world where all the supernatural phenomena is reduced to cristal stones and Reiki and we had lost sense of the Sacred and Divine world.

[@donaldmartineau8176]

I've deeply studied the Ignatius New Testament! Love it! I also cannot wait for the rest to be published! I really enjoy your videos.

[@ctmcatholic]

That’s great to hear, thank you. Very excited for the rest of the Ignatius Bible as well.

[@KatherineWeasley]

My current go-to for just reading scripture is the NRSV-CE. For deeper studying I've been using Catholic Publishing Company's St. Joseph Edition-- New Catholic Bible. Its Imprimatur and Nihil Obstat are from the Bishops Conference in the Philippines and Fr. Jude Winkler, OFM did major contributions to the book intros and notes.

[@ctmcatholic]

Amazing, thanks for sharing 🙏

[@twilliams4768]

I also have the St. Joseph Edition “New Catholic Bible”. The notes are excellent, more “pastoral” and helpful for gaining spiritual insight. They contrast with the notes in the New American Bible which can be more “literary analysis” and less helpful in bringing the soul closer to God.

Thanks Fr Columba, As you said, there is so few Catholic study Bibles, our Protestant brothers and sisters are so lucky to the like of the ESV and NIV study bibles which have so much notes and details and pictures and diagrams. (The ICSB NT, the Navarre and the commentary on SS, that you reviewed is great) and so is the Didache Bible or the Little Rock study Bible. Again many thanks Father.

Here are some recommendations: - Commentaries on the Gospels of St. Matthew and St. John; Pauline Commentaries; Old Testament Commentaries (by St. Thomas Aquinas, O.P. Volumes available through St. Paul Center in the U.S.) - The Great Commentaries of Cornelius a Lapide (Old and New Testament Commentaries) - Catena Aurea Gospel Commentaries (compiled by St. Thomas Aquinas, O.P. Concise sayings of the Church Fathers for the Gospels. Incomparable resource for Patristic Scriptural studies.) - Commentary on St. John; Expositions on the Psalms (by St. Augustine - Nicene Church Father) - Commentaries on St. Matthew; Acts; Romans; Minor Pauline Epistles (by St. John Chrysostom - Nicene Church Father) - Old and New Testament Commentaries by St. Albert the Great, O.P. These are among the best and most orthodox of Scriptural Commentaries. In particular, you can't go wrong with St. Thomas Aquinas' Commentaries.

Father yes you give us wonderful insights, I look forward to all the sound effects. It’s delightful! Father I love your idea of how to study scripture. I often feel conflicted with focusing on the daily readings versus studying a particular book. For example Matthew will be the focus coming December. I would love to focus on his book. I’m wondering if I should focus just on that or the daily readings because I have to admit I only have so much time. If you have a comment I’d appreciate it, I also know you’re busy. Bless you, Father.😊

[@ctmcatholic]

Hi Esther, thank you so much for your question. It’s Katie here, I work directly with Fr Columba and answer comments for him. It’s a great question, and a tough one because it’s choosing between two great things. The honest and best answer is that it’s something you need to discern for yourself and possibly bring to a spiritual director, depending on where you are spiritually and what works best for you, but personally I think nothing can beat going through a book start to finish to really get the full picture. If that feeds your prayer then great, but if daily readings help you connect with God better then go with that. Bless you and praying for you!

There are so many bibles it's hard to pick the right one.

Not sure by your meaning of "faithful"... the translation itself is considered to be one of the most scholarly. the annotations and articles don't push a specific denominational or devotional agenda if that's what you might mean? They are academic and apart from doctrinal bias, which is partly what makes it objectively ecumenical.

Unfortunately the only way to avoid ads on KZbin is to pay the monthly membership fee for KZbin premium.
