Can anyone offer advice on a Catholic version of the Interlinear Greek/English New Testament?

I have it, but what makes it "Catholic?"

Loyal Catholic,

Are you on my ping list? Would you like to be?

Hello, it's good to see another Catholic here.

A very good website to go to is EWTN to find the most ancient Bible writen type context. The Jerusalem Bible is probably the one you want.

This might be good:

The New Greek-English Interlinear New Testament (Personal Size)
by Robert K. Brown

I don't know what translation you're accustomed to, but this one is Revised Standard Version/New International Version. It is based on the very well known Nestle Aland interlinear Greek NT.

I think you'd find the English pretty standard and familiar. It's available at Amazon for under $20.

There is no Catholic interlinear Greek/English New Testament.

No Catholic publisher has thought this important enough to produce, which is truly a shame.

The closest anyone has ever come is the "Greek, Latin, English New Testament Student's Workbook" published by Liturgical Press of Collegeville, MN waaaay back in 1963, and long since out of print. Hunt for a copy at used bookstores and good luck finding one.

What it is, is a book of large pages (c. 9" x 12") with a page of the Greek text and a page of the Vulgate Latin translation from the Nestle Gr./Lat. facing-pages Catholic NT, along with a page from the Confraternity NT English translation current in '63. Each page looks like a xerox of pages from 3 other books, with a lot of white space for students to make marginal notes. N.B. It is big and heavy and rather cumbersome.

Best I can recommend is to use the Green or one of the Zondervon interlinears on one knee, and to have one of the Catholic NTs on your other knee.

Trust me -- if there were a Catholic interlinear out there, I'd know it.
