| Based on the Revised Standard Version — Catholic Edition, this 12th volume leads readers through a penetrating study of the Letter of St. James, the First and Second Letters of St. Peter, and the Letter of St. Jude, using the biblical text itself and the Church’s own guidelines for understanding the Bible. Ample notes accompany each page, providing fresh insights and commentary by renowned Scripture scholars Scott Hahn and Curtis Mitch, as well as time-tested interpretations from the Fathers of the Church. These helpful study notes make explicit what the Letter of St. James, the First and Second Letters of St. Peter and the Letter of St. Jude often assume. They also provide rich historical, cultural, geographical, and theological information pertinent to the Letters.
The Ignatius Study Bible also includes Topical Essays, Word Studies and Charts. Each page includes an easy-to-use Cross- Reference Section. Study Questions are provided for the Letter of St. James, the First and Second Letters of St. Peter and the Letter of St. Jude. These can deepen your personal study of God’s Holy Word. There is also an introductory essay covering questions of authorship, date, destination, structure, and themes. An outline of the Letters and a map are also included.
“With copious historical and theological notes, incisive commentary and tools for study, the The Letter of St. James, the First and Second Letters of St. Peter and the Letter of St. Jude come alive in its historical setting and contemporary application. The wisdom of the Fathers and the teaching of the Church illuminate its every page. Hahn and Mitch have done much of the work for us. Unabashedly Catholic, this series will assist the scholar as well as the beginner to study of the Bible.” ~Stephen Ray, Author, Upon This Rock |
