re: the “What Bible” question.

Currently what is common in the Mass is the New American Bible, revised edition. I don’t think it’s very good. It is too often a paraphrase more than a translation.

Personally I use the RSV Catholic Edition. I check the worrisome parts with the Koine and the MT Hebrew. When I win the lottery I’m going to get the LXX.

Bibleworks is a great program.

Do you read, speak and understand ancient Koine Greek??? I'm impressed! ;o)
