Caveat Theophilus
I bought this for the Revised English Bible upon which it is based. The added theological content is intended to be a plus. As a translation, the "REB" is very useful, being truly ecumenical, and striving to avoid denominational bias. To that end, it succeeds rather well. While I would prefer that the grammatical level were a bit higher, it is nevertheless a good, fluid read. It retains a few odd spots (Genesis 14:18 Melchizedek brought out FOOD and wine" ???), it can generally be relied upon as trustworthy. The Apocrypha. The word itself is a judgment. Being Catholic, a bible which lacks the Deuterocanonical books is 91% of Sacred Scripture - incomplete. I must point out that no ecclesial authority has ever judged the seven Deuterocanonical books as being "apocryphal." Quite the opposite, actually. However, included here are other books which the Catholic Church does not admit as canonical, so one must be judicious in their approach to them. Now, as to that theological content, some of it is modernist and tends toward the natural over the supernatural and the etymological over the traditional. Without the exercise of care, one may risk losing their footing in such an environment. Yet, a good percentage of the background material is useful and does contribute to the overall value of the book. So, with a careful approach and reading, I recommend this translation.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
