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.

Hopefully I will receive a great benefit from reading the Gospels in this format.

This is my first Bible. I was looking for something that would grab my attention and offer context, and also be a pretty object on its own. This Word on Fire edition perfectly fits what I was looking for. I received it within days of ordering, and it was really well packaged. Looking forward to dig into this beautiful book!

I am a life long Catholic and have never read a bible that even comes close to this one!! Simply amazing and hard to put down! (When have you heard that about a bible!!!).

This is a good start point for understanding a lot about the Bible. Highly suggested for Catholics who don’t know their Bible. I hope there will be another series for the other books in the Bible. The font could be larger for people with poor eyesight. A large font should be offered.

My wife and I read the gospels daily and think that it is a wonderful piece of work.
