Study Tools

This Catholic Study Bible is designed to lead the reader through Scripture according to the Church’s guidelines—faithful to the canon, the tradition, and the creeds. The Church’s interpretive principles have thus shaped the component parts of this book, and they are designed to make the reader’s study as effective and rewarding as possible.

book-icon

Relate to the content and unity of Scripture

Connecting Old Testament passages to New Testament mysteries, these notes highlight their relevance to Christ and the Church, fostering appreciation for God’s unified plan.

dove-icon

Examine particular passages in light of the Church’s living tradition

These annotations draw from the Holy Spirit’s guidance of the Magisterium and Scripture’s spiritual senses. They encompass Church teachings from popes, creeds, and councils, as well as interpretations from Fathers, Doctors, and saints.

keys-icon

Pertain to the analogy of faith

Explore how the mysteries of faith, revealed in Scripture and defined by the Church, clarify and connect with one another in a coherent and unified way.

Outlines and Introductions

Each biblical book is introduced with an outline and an essay focusing on authorship, date of composition, purpose, and leading themes.

Numerous Cross References to Related Scriptural Passages

References are listed to point readers to other scriptural passages related to the one being studied. This follow-up is an essential part of any serious study. It is also an excellent way to discover how the content of Scripture “hangs together” in a providential unity.

1,700+ references to the Catechism of the Catholic Church

Along with biblical cross-references, the annotations refer to select paragraphs from the Catechism of the Catholic Church to help the reader interpret the Bible in accordance with the mind of the Church.

25+ charts

Over 25 charts covering chronology, kings, parables, and other features of the Bible summarize key biblical information at a glance.

Topical Essays

The 20+ topical essays take up major themes and explain them more thoroughly and theologically than the annotations, often relating them to the doctrines of the Church.

Word Studies

The extensive annotations are supplemented by over 140 word studies that put readers in touch with the ancient languages of Scripture. These help readers understand better and appreciate the inspired terminology that runs throughout the sacred books.
