Overview

Considered by many the best Catholic commentary on the Bible available today, the Navarre Bible series presents seven volumes on the Old Testament. These volumes, compiled by members of the Faculty of Theology at the University of Navarre, Spain, draw on such sources as Church documents, the writings of the Fathers and Doctors of the Church, and the works of contemporary spiritual writers—particularly St. Josemaría Escrivá, who initiated the Navarre Bible project.

Each volume in the Navarre Bible Old Testament, Standard Edition provides extensive commentary on the Scripture. The commentaries include introductions and notes designed to bring clarity to the spiritual and theological message of Scripture. They are both scholarly and readable, presenting an intellectual, historical, and applicable survey of the riches of the Old Testament. With the Logos edition, each Scripture passage is linked with your favorite translation, and is easy to study side-by-side with your other commentaries. You can search by topic or Scripture with lightning fast results!
