I actually HAVE to obtain a copy of the New Jerusalem Bible "Regular Edition", not the Readers' edition. It actually says, "It is important that the student obtain this "regular Edition", not the "REader's Edition" or the "Standard Edition" or the older 1966 Jerusalem Bible. <BR/><BR/>Uh, oh. Gotta buy that for sure. <BR/><BR/>The good news is that I was mistaken and my RSV-CE IS the recommended version for the class.<BR/><BR/>So I need 2 Bibles, and I HAVE one of the required texts. Yay! <BR/><BR/>I need a coupel other books, too. I bet I can find the New Jerusalem Bible, Regular Edition used somewhere. <BR/><BR/>There are other supplemental books I have to track down, too.Adorohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02853244433854822731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15170815.post-66081643070555874082007-07-13T18:52:00.000-05:002007-07-13T18:52:00.000-05:00altough, the Oxford RSV is great for critical stud...altough, the Oxford RSV is great for critical study.

I have the Jerusalem Bible (Reader's Edition), the NAB, and the Ignatius RSV-CE. The Prof is asking for the RSV. If what I have is sufficient, I'd rather not buy another! (Not that it would be bad to have yet another Bible around! LOL!) <BR/><BR/>God bless!Adorohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02853244433854822731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15170815.post-43657908553709203412007-07-12T21:20:00.000-05:002007-07-12T21:20:00.000-05:00Please know one thing (from someone who has done c...Please know one thing (from someone who has done coursework for an MA in theology). Oftentimes professors ASK for a specific biblical translation, but actually don't mind. I had a professor state that we had to have the Oxford RSV, but actually he didn't mind the Jerusalem Bible, or any other type of RSV, just not the NRSV or a non-Catholic translation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
