NRSV CATHOLIC XL BIBLE LARGE PRINT - 9780061946547

The XL Catholic Bible in the New Revised Standard Version (NRSV) is a large-print Catholic Bible with extra-large text in a square-shaped trim, bound in black imitation leather. It is a complete Catholic Bible containing all 73 books of the Catholic canon, and it carries the official imprimatur of the Catholic Church. It is designed for readers who want larger, easier-to-see print in a distinctive square format, for personal reading, prayer, and study.

The NRSV continues the tradition of the King James Version and the Revised Standard Version, and it is used by mainline Protestant and Orthodox churches as well as by many Catholics. This edition uses Anglicized text, with British English spelling and grammar, and prints the words of Christ in black rather than red, so the whole page reads in a single color. The Smyth-sewn binding lies flat in your hand or on a desk. A double-sided satin ribbon marker keeps your place, and a concordance at the back helps you find where key words appear throughout the Bible.

Use & care: Suited to reading at home or in a chapel, where the larger print and lay-flat binding let it rest open on a table or lap. Wipe the black imitation leather cover with a soft, dry cloth and store the Bible away from heat and direct sunlight.
