My understanding is that next month, we will be able to start preordering the new CAB. Does anyone have any additional info on it?
I’m wondering how thick it’ll be since the Great Adventure Bible is already so thick; the notes from the CAB will make it a monster.
My boyfriends mom found this in a bin with some pretty old photos, prayer cards, and other religious type items from her grandparents (not sure whether they were her parents-great grandparents-or older).
We were wondering if there’s any way to tell the age of the book!
Thank you!
What I mean by "mish-mash" is a Bible that contains 2 or 3 translations, like the Douay-Confraternity, Douay-Westminister, etc. I mean, would it not be cool to have a Knox-Confraternity, or a NJB-JB, or NABRE-JB with the Grail Psalter, or NRSV-NABRE with the Abbey Psalms and Canticles, or the NLT-NCB, these would be very nice.
A few that have helped me along my journey.
"Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light to my path.” Psalm 119:105
When I was around 10, my dad had to attend a doctor's appointment after church, so he told us to try finding a ride (this was before Uber & before cellphones were common in town to allow you to call a taxi), so mom & I went around asking, but sadly no one was willing to do so we walked home where there are railroad tracks nearby. When mom & I were most of the way home, a train was approaching and mom wanted to hurry home, but I wanted to watch the train go by (as I was usually allowed to do once each month for good behaviour), so I jumped the track & nearly got hit by the train, but instead my bible fell out of my pocket & got run over instead while managing to stay stitched together. Thus, every now & then, I open this edition & perform some canticles using it as a way of thanking God for my survival.
P.S. I use Canadian grammar so please don't complain about spelling differences
It can be in multiple volumes (preferably the same size for storage reasons)
In no way am i a Bible elitist I just need to be able to access it for completion of a book I'm making on the history of the Bible in English prior to American indipendence. Thanks in advance & may God bless y'all
Edit: I am aware of this website (https://originaldouayrheims.com) but alas it remains incomplete for me to source from
Does anyone have this latest translation yet? It'll be interesting to see what kind of editions are published here in the United States. They have sample pages you can take a look at from the U.K.

Hello, experts! I hope you don't mind my post. I plan to buy this Bible on Internet and I simply wanted to ask if you consider this Bible durable enough for almost daily use?
Another question:
Based on the picture 2: Is the spine of this Bible sewn?
I'm afraid the pages will start to come apart.
Thanks in advance!
I'm trying to get a free Catholic Bible, im trying to get ahold of my local church to join the RCIA program and get involved in the church and it says to contact them by email but I have gotten no response. I don't have very much money and I'm trying to get my hands on a physical Catholic Bible and rosary for study, I'm currently in the process of converting to Catholicism. Any help is very much appreciated!
I'm currently deciding between Didache Bible : With Commentaries Based on the Catechism of the Catholic Church and the Ignatius study bible. I like in depth analysis which is why the Ignatius bible interests me a lot but also would like to learn more about Catholicism. Do you think the Ignatius bible would be good for that or is the Didache better?
This is my first Study Bible
I have about 7 Bibles and two of thos are protestant version, which is on the bottom left anf bottom right, the rest are Catholic Translations.
I found this nice looking NABRE edition that I have never seen before. It looks like it's a custom made option from a factory based out in China. I'm hoping we can get a nice edition like this for the upcoming CAB edition. I'm glad Ascension Press is going to produce the CAB edition and have high hopes for what they will be offering.
