Commentary In Favor Of Books The Ignatius Bible: Revised Standard Version, Second Catholic Edition
We did it! Dear husband and I took our pastor's challenge to ‘read the Bible and the Catechism in a year’. We began on the 4th of February last year and we followed this guide a handy little fold-out which you mark off as you go. We would read a couple chapters from the Old Testament, something from the Wisdom literature, followed by the New Testament and several paragraphs from the Catechism each night. In the beginning we doubled up in hopes of doing it in a 1/2 year. It ended up we missed more days than we read for various reasons, but the important thing is we did NOT quit! Yay! We think we are gonna do a Bible study next.Declare Books To The Ignatius Bible: Revised Standard Version, Second Catholic Edition

Isaiah 7:14 is accurately translated according to the Septuagint: "Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel."
This is supposed to be a Catholic version of the Bible, but I found several problems with this, such as mistranslating what the Bible actually says. The booklet Which Bible Should You Read? goes into more detail about the various (serious) problems this translation has. For example, it mistranslates Genesis 3:15 as "he shall bruise your head and you shall bruise his heel", when the pronoun should be "she/her". It also leaves out thirteen verses of Ecclesiasticus (Sirach) chapter 24. The
Read the Revised Standard Version of the Bible (yes, the whole thing) when I was about thirteen. Had read parts of the New Testament previously and, like many of my generation, grew up hearing Bible stories everywhere. Remember being impressed by the huge flow of history found in the first half of the Old Testament. Didn't realize that Genesis to Esther was one continuous narrative.A very good read.
I just finished reading through the NT again so now I'm starting at the beginning, the very beginning; Genesis and am going to read through the OT again.
Read through the Bible for the very first time, did a thoroughly scholarly approach insofar as I took notes on all the aspects that interested me beyond a strictly religious matter (results not to be regurgitated here). (Although I did plenty of note-taking on all the ways the Old Testament parallels the New Testament, too.) Suffice to say, very interesting results. Along the way I discovered some truly good reading hidden within this massive collection that most people probably would never even
