In
conformity with the Church's translation guidelines, the New Catholic
Version (NCV) is intended to be used by Catholics for daily prayer
and meditation, as well as private devotion and group study as an
alternative to other translations currently available. This faithful,
reader-friendly translation of the New Testament was prepared by the
same team that prepared the NCV Psalms released in 2002 and has been
widely acclaimed for its readability and copious, well-written, and
informative footnotes. The volume offers many recognizable St. Joseph
Edition features, including easy-to-read type, nearly 40
black-and-white photos and full-page illustrations, an Analytical
Index, a Liturgical Index of the Sunday Gospels, Readings for the
Major Feasts of the Year, the Miracles of Jesus, the Parables of
Jesus, and a map of the Journeys of St. Paul. This is a convenient
New Testament for those who wish to carry a copy in a pocket or
purse. Set in 10-pt. type, this New Catholic Version edition measures
4” x 6-1/4” and is bound in supple black and brown Dura-Lux.
