Description

The New Community Bible (NCB) is a revised edition of the popular Christian Community Bible translated by Late Bernardo Hurault. One of the strong points of The Christian Community Bible was the Commentary that ran all along the text of the Bible. A group of Indian Bible scholars came together in 1990 under the leadership of the SOCIETY OF ST PAUL (ST PAULS) to revise and adapt The Christian Community Bible for India. They carried out a careful revision of the text.
After the initial first release of the New Community Bible, it was once again revised by the scholars who worked on the first edition.
A brief but accurate and authoritative Introduction opens each of the major divisions of both the Old and the New Testaments – the Pentateuch, the Historical Books, the Wisdom Books, the Prophetic Books in the Old Testament, and the Gospels, and the Letters of Paul, in the New Testament. In addition, a brief Introduction concluding with the structure of the Book itself is given for selected Books of the Bible.
Sub-titles are provided throughout the text.
Imprimatur: The NCB carries the Imprimatur from 5 bishops representing the three different rites in India.
International Editions: St Paul Publications, Australia, published an international edition of the NCB which became an instant best-seller. Various other editions in different types of binding followed. Today, it is the fastest selling bible in Australia, Nigeria, and other African countries.
