The Bible is the book of the Lord’s people, who, in listening to it, move from dispersion and division towards unity. The word of God unites believers and makes them one people. That is the importance and mission of biblical scholarship at the service of the community of faith, the type of scholarship exhibited in this volume of biblical commentaries. * Pope Francis, Vatican City * [A] splendid book ... readers should keep open and ready to hand when they are reading any part of the Bible. This is good and reliable scholarship, made accessible for contemporary readers. The list of contributors is a distinguished one. * The Pastoral Review * … It is overwhelmingly a gift to the Church, just as was its grandparent in 1968. * Irish Theological Quarterly * This scholarly, single-volume, biblical commentary will be a valuable asset for any Preacher. * Theology * [T]his impressive production is lucidly presented, favourably priced for its quantity and quality, and indicates that Catholic Bible scholarship is in a vibrant state. * The Society for Old Testament Study * Jerome Biblical Commentary for the Twenty-First Century represents the complete and final vindication of their predecessors whose work was sometimes considered irrelevant and even detrimental to the Catholic community of faith. * Review of Biblical Literature * This book is a work of creative and skilled biblical interpretation. ... [A]ll those interested in biblical interpretation will profit from this volume. It is highly recommended. * The Bible Today *
