Navarre Bible: Psalms And Song of Solomon

One of the best references to understanding the psalms

Part of the Navarre Bible Commentary Set. Very easy to read and understand. Recommended for anyone who is engaged in personal Bible study without a university background in Theology.

I used this for personal prayer and meditation as well as in prison ministry. It has study notes explaining how the psalms fit together.

This is a wonderful book, and I was blessed to be able to find it throught Amazon. Highly reccomended. I just hope the there will be other titles on the Navarre Bible available soon.

The Navarre College's new translation of sacred scripture, in this case the Psalms and Song of Solomon is a fantastic edition that leaves one searching for words of recommendation. Written in a clean, cogent style, the book divides itself by page into the original scripture passages with accompanying biblical commentary, from prominent Catholic saints (noteably Josemaria Escrivá). This particular edition is in impressive hardcover format, feels sturdy and is well constructed. A word of note to those who have been collecting the other Navarre Bibles: this particular edition does not include the original Latin Vulgate text, unlike some of the New Testament editions. It's a little disappointing, but understandable, for if the edition did include the Latin it would be a massive tome, indeed! Thus, to maintain affordable costs and size of the book it is not present. A must for the serious Bible scholar, student of "Lectio Divina", or the casual Bible student. Collect them all!
