Product Description
•••••
Read the Bible like never before, wrapped in 2,000 years of insight, art, and tradition.
Four years in the making, The Word on Fire Bible is a groundbreaking new series introducing readers to the strange, colorful world of the Bible.
It was designed to appeal not just to Christians but to non-believers, searchers, and those with far more questions than answers. It doesn't presume any experience with the Bible, catering to those unfamiliar with its many events and characters, while still providing rich insights to even the most biblically literate.
It's a cathedral in print, the highest-quality Catholic Bible ever produced for mass distribution.
Inside this first volume of the series, you'll find the four Gospels surrounded by illuminating artwork and helpful commentary from Bishop Robert Barron, the Church Fathers, and some of the greatest saints, mystics, artists, and scholars throughout history, allowing the story of Jesus Christ to shine with new clarity and splendor.
You'll discover insights from John Chrysostom, Augustine, Thomas Aquinas, John Henry Newman, G.K. Chesterton, Thérèse of Lisieux, Fulton Sheen, John Paul II, and many other teachers in the way of the Spirit.
The translation used in The Word on Fire Bible is the New Revised Standard Version: Catholic Edition (NRSV-CE), which has received wide acclaim from academics and Church leaders. It stands out because of its accuracy and readability, being as literal as possible yet as free as necessary to make the meaning clear in graceful, understandable English. It’s a wonderful translation—both for those who have never read the Bible and for those who have studied it for years.

This is a very beautifully produced bible. I have several different types of Bibles and I believe this one will soon take pride of place for my New Testament studies and reflection.
Christine (Whitby) | November 15th, 2020
This Bible is exquisite. The quality of the book is superb: the leather cover, the high quality of paper and the very beautiful artwork make it a treasure. The commentary that accompanies the scriptures themselves adds a dimension that elevates the Bible to another level for me. This is because we hear the voices of others that have studied and loved the scriptures, adding a depth of knowledge to the sacred word. I find this Bible to be a true gem.
