Mary Jo,
Please note the RSV-CE and the NRSV are seperate translations. The NRSV was given an imprimatur by an American bishop but was subsequently rejected by Rome for liturgical use due to inappropriate inclusive language and other PC changes. For exmaple the Messianic title Son of Man is changed to "child of a human being" in the NRSV. And that about says it all does it not?

Hi Rose, Would you believe I still have a copy of the 1966 Jerusalem Bible? It is a very beautiful translation and I remember how much we relied on it in the prayer groups during the seventies. You are right I think there isn't a compact copy out of that version. Mary Jo >in the rain forest where the sun is shining today!

Deacon Lance,
You are right! Obviously I meant the RSV-CE with the Orthodox Canon.

Someone has just reprinted the Douay-Rheims English Bible, for those who are interested (I already have one from Pius XII's time). I don't know the publisher, but no doubt most of you are better at using the Internet than I am and can find out.
Meanwhile, those who think that an edition of the Bible encourging fornication is a modern development should look up the famous - or infamous - "Wicked Bible". Now that would be a guaranteed best-selling reprint - the original sold out in a matter of days. Alas, the times were less tolerant and the publisher was severely penalized by King James I of England (who was not exactly a paragon of moral rectitude, but never mind).

I am still using mine but I think it is a 1968, but it is paperback. It is so marked up, highlighted, and written in that I have a hard time reading it. But, everytime I decide to try a different Bible, nothing fits queit right. So I just mark it up some more and go on. It is well taped together. Marcus Grodi showed Scott Hahns Bible one night on Journey Home. It was sooo taped together, and the inside markings could propably not be replaced easily. Pani Rose
