<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Formally approved by Pope Francis, this present work is the contribution of the Pontifi cal Biblical Commission toward a more adequate understanding of the concepts of inspiration and truth that respects both the nature of the Bible and its signifi cance for the life of the Church. Drawing on a close reading of the Scriptures themselves, the document focuses on three main aspects: 1. The inspiration of Sacred Scripture and the exploration of its divine provenance 2. The truth of the Word of God, emphasizing the message about God and his project of salvation 3. Challenges that arise from the Bible itself, on account of certain aspects that seem inconsistent with its quality of being the Word of God<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>I thank the members of the Biblical Commission for their patient and competent effort, and I express my desire that their work may contribute to a more attentive, grateful, and joyful listening to Sacred Scripture in the Church as the Word coming from God and speaking of God for the life of the world. <p/> From the Foreword by His Eminence, Cardinal Gerhard Ludwig Müller<br><br>Kudos to the Liturgical Press for bringing this latest statement of the Pontifical Biblical Commission to the English-speaking world. . . . Teachers and theologians can find here valuable material for further reflection on the scared nature of the Bible within the community of faith. <p/> Timothy Radcliffe, <i>Stations of the Cross, The Bible Today</i><br><br>"This book is a very dense document due to the subject, but it is also remarkably accessible. It is neither excessively academic nor technical, though some background in biblical studies is necessary in order to assimilate its finer points. Nonetheless, any sincere layperson with a basic understanding of the historical context of the Bible and the Church's teaching on its proper interpretation will be able to make their way through it. If the reader views the book as an orthodox course in the Bible, and commits to a sustained reading of it, it will likely bear abundant fruits."Karl Schultz<br>
