To this question men and women from many different countries, continents, and languages have collaborated to supply an answer in The International Bible Commentary (IBC) - a one-volume Bible commentary for the Church of the twenty-first century. Initiated by international scholars as a Catholic and ecumenical, academic and pastoral enterprise, The International Bible Commentary brings together many voices speaking from different cultural perspectives to interpret God's word in the Bible. These voices, gathered from South America, Europe, Australia, Africa, North America, India, Asia, and the Philippines, have written their commentaries and articles from a variety of perspectives so that the spirit of many world cultures can be experienced in the celebration of the Bible today. A ground-breaking achievement for pastors and preachers across the globe, The International Bible Commentary enables people to read and teach the Bible by helping them to recover the ancient biblical truth in all its warmth and power, yet within modern contexts. The international strength of this work is confirmed by the participation of publishers who are committed to producing editions in English, Spanish, French, Italian, and Polish.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">William Reuben Farmer</note> <subject> <topic>Catholic Bible</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">220.7</classification> <classification authority="ddc">W716-F23</classification> <identifier type="isbn">0814624545</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/ImageCover/2022/1/27/_14397751_140.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/ImageCover/2022/1/27/_14397751_140.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2022-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119070502.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
