Overview

The Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture (CCSS) implements the theological principles taught by Vatican II for interpreting Scripture “in accord with the same Spirit by which it was written”—that is, interpreting Scripture in its canonical context and in the light of Catholic Tradition and the analogy of faith.

CCSS is packed with features that help readers use the Bible more effectively in teaching, preaching, evangelization, and other forms of ministry. This upgrade provides sound exegesis of the Gospel of John and Revelation, as well as spiritual reflection and application. A set of cross-references links each passage to the Catechism, the Lectionary, and related biblical texts. Sidebars present information on the background of the text and on how the text has been interpreted by the Church. Abundant quotations from saints and Church Fathers enable readers to glimpse the continuity of Catholic tradition.

In the Logos editions, these volumes are enhanced by amazing functionality. Important terms link to dictionaries, encyclopedias, and a wealth of other resources in your digital library. Perform powerful searches to find exactly what you’re looking for. Take the discussion with you using tablet and mobile apps. With Logos Bible Software, the most efficient and comprehensive research tools are in one place, so you get the most out of your study.

    This series of commentaries is exceptionally well done in all aspects. Though soundly scholarly, It is comprehensive--very readable and understandable. The format is good and user/reader friendly. While currently studying Revelation, this has become my favorite go to resource.
