Title:	The New Interpreter's Bible : general articles & introduction, commentary, & reflections for each book of the Bible, including the Apocryphal/Deuterocanonical books.
Publisher, Date:	Nashville : Abingdon Press, ©1994-<c2004>
Description:	volumes <1-2, 4-12 pages, 13 unnumbered pages> : illustrations, maps ; 27 cm
Summary:	A completely new commentary in twelve volumes. The New Interpreter's Bible continues the tradition established by its predecessor, the Interpreter's Bible, as an invaluable tool for everyone who studies, preaches, and teaches scripture -- including Bible scholars, pastors, Sunday school and Bible school teachers, and interested laypeople. Each volume of the New Interpreter's Bible includes two complete translations of selected books of the Bible, commentary, and reflections. The New Interpreter's Bible incorporates several other key strengths: the exegetical commentary and the theological reflections for each biblical book are written by one individual, ensuring consistency of perspective; the ecumenical roster of contributors includes top scholars and emerging new voices; the biblical text is divided into coherent and manageable units, such as pericopes, which allows discussion of important issues that are overlooked in a verse-by-verse treatment. - Jacket.

Full texts and critical notes of the New International Version and the New Revised Standard Version of the Bible in parallel columns - (Baker & Taylor)

We've waited some 40 years for a new edition of the admirable Interpreter's Bible, 1951-1957 (cited in BCL3 ). The New IB is disappointing: the King James text is absent; do not dispose of the original set. It was the KJV that made the first edition so useful for those with a purely literary interest in the Bible. The KJV was the Bible for many centuries of English language readers & writers. That text was splendidly clarified by inclusion of the RSV and commentary. The NIB's obvious readership is reduced to theologians and other serious students of religion. This new edition contains full texts and critical notes of the New International Version and the New Revised Standard Version of the Bible in parallel columns. Lovely page design in two colors with headings, and text background in a gentle green. Text & Commentary are set in two-columns of crisp, highly legible type, on good, opaque, acid-free paper. The 12 volumes to be completed in the year 2000. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or. - (Book News)
