Thank you š
I actually really appreciate typological readings of the bible. Of course things can go too far, but i think if we can trust scripture is inspired by God, we can trust it speaks on way more levels than we will ever fully understand
Great review as I do think the Western and Eastern Church will like this Bible as they both have authority of the Holy Scriptures for sure. Nothing new is good as the Church is not new maybe some today may claim but we know it does not change. Holy Tradition also aligns with Holy Scripture.
Thank you! I enjoyed listening to this review. The Catholic faith has a cross with Jesus crucified on it because it is a symbol of his victory over sin and how much he Loves us.
Thank you for this review! I am now convinced that I need to get a copy of this. š

Thank you for providing the non-Catholic and Catholic views of the Study Bible.
I got my Bible a few weeks ago! Love it so far!
Excellent review, I like the depth of information it offers, just added it to my list of possibilities.
Please review Luke 1 as well and notes about Mary cause I know notes about her will come up in Revelation as well. Thank you
Thank you for your review. Ordered a copy from amazon a while back and is likely to arrive next year Feb about month's wait away.
Right now all I have is the orthodox study bible which I got as a gift from a visit to an orthodox church last week.
Ultimately decided to stay catholic so not sure if I wanna hold on until the ignatius bible arrives or just go ahead with the nkjv orthodox bible I've got on hand š
The crucifix memorializes the most important event in human history. Why would one make an idol of the wood upon which the messiah was crucified?
What's your favorite Catholic study Bible?
Thats interesting that you say its uncommon for Catholics to use ancient near east context in understanding scripture.
When I was converting out if atheism and deciding where to go, it was the Catholics who seemed to bring that type of context to their interpretations, and ultimately convinced me. I didn't really see any convincing mastery of historical context from the ancient near east or in any sense from anyone else.
Interesting detailed review. Thank you
Thank you for the fine review. God Bless.
The Romans crucified many people, the cross is a symbol of a tortuous death, but only 1 crucifixion atones for our sins,The one on which Pilate put the sign Iesu Nazarene Rex Iudeorum (INRI) Jesus of Nazareth king of the Jews.1 Cor 2:2.
As a mathematical physicist (being into General Relativity, theoretical cosmology, quantum mechanics and such like), it strikes me again and again when reading Genesis that the first verses may well be not just about the past and the Beginning—but also very much about the present and the Persistence of Creation, enveloped in Our Lord's enduring and all-encompassing Word, carried, cherished and sustained by It, culminating in and through Jesus and saved by Him. At all times and unto the ages of ages. "Vayomer Elohim…" Without Whose Word (the cosmos left to its own void devices, so to speak), chaos would reign, "until" (indicating finality rather than time) only ultimate devasted and devastating nothingness would remain. The snake indeed. (Not a heretic line of thinking, I dare hope?)
Mine came a couple of days brother ! And wow š® itās amazing!! My fellow jiujitsu brother thank you for the essays i actually highlighted the same stuff you mentioned š
Thank you for the review. I like your approach of completely covering several sections. I did see that you highlighted some text. Can you comment on page thickness, and bleed thru of pen or highlighter? I find some paper selections are more resistant to impression and bleed thru than others.
If most Protestants could be more like you (and Catholics too!), the world would be a much nicer place. God bless you and may He keep you from falling into temptation.
Depiction of God is paganism.
When are you getting scott hahn on to discuss your review and ask him questions?
Thanks, JM. Great review, as always! I'm familiar with the Bible from years ago when they started printing the individual books with notes. I can't wait to get the completed Study Bible! Have a Merry and Blessed Christmas!
This is great content. Thank you. Merry Christmas
The story of the curse of Ham was writen after the event so Noah could have cursed the child without a name but for future readers, mainly the isrsilites of the day of the conquest the story is written as cursing the child by name, Canaan.
What are all those idols behind you on the set. Are you allowed to have those but a Catholic can't have something similar for saints our Lord and TBVM? Also whos word is more credible yours or the church fathers?
Thanks for the comprehensive review! Iām getting a lot out of my copy!
As a Catholic, this review was super fair and gracious, thank you sir! Great channel

Does anyone know what Old Testament translation they are using? Masoretic? Septuagint?
Excellent master class in ecumenical theology. I have many study bible and commentaries, but I never thought this new study bible would sit on the top shelf of premium study bibles. Now that I own it and have been going through it, I realize it also has a first place position on my desktop for comprehensive reading. I want to see an Ignatius New and Old Testaments Study Bible in the Kindle version to carry on my phone and tablet. This is turning out to be a serious contender for best primary study bible and and a solid weight lifting free weight for the gym. Love your reviews of this bible your dedication to helping find the Word.
As a Catholic, I truly appreciate the review. It was very straight forward, acknowledging what it does well while also not compromising on where you disagree. Bravo
I love the New Testament edition and plan on getting this Old & New Testament. Amazing how many views you are getting for these reviews of this Bible. It shows how meaningful the New Testament edition was for so many people and how hungry people were to see the completed study Bible. Tremendous blend of scholarship and devotion.
Once again, an excellent review on an aspect of the St. Ignatius Catholic Study Bible.
Sadly, I will have to wait until February to order a copy! This is a good way to learn patience. š
I really appreciate your study bible reviews! I've purchased a few of your recommended books. As a sidenote, along with Matthew Thomas, it would be great to hear a conversation between yourself and John Bergsma. I'm sure it would be another great conversation.
I appreciated your noting of the Catholic take on depictions of created things and the Divine image. Coming from a Reformed and Presbyterian background, this tidbit really intrigued me. I really appreciate their noting of Scripture and (less so, obviously) a council's declaration on graven images.
You've really been selling me on this Bible. Keep up the good work and God bless!
What a superb presentation! I learned a lot, thank you. Subscribed. As an RC, I'm tripping on whether to go for this or the one (new 2nd ed.) from Ascension Press…
We must unite brethren as followers of Jesus Christ and All Holy Trinity.
Martin Luther followed the Jews in removing books of the Bible including the very important Book of the Macabees that has the crucial prophecy of the Covenant & its revelation is found to Contradict Zionism & the violent Zionist gathering in a land, any wonder why the two most holy ones are desecrated in their Talmud ?
Catholic here, instantly subscribed. Thank you for your content.
Do the gospels please
Yet another fair expose`. Ignatius Press say they are awaiting a further delivery by the end of December. Unfortunately, that looks like I'm unlikely to receive my copy here in the UK until late January/early February 2025 even though Amazon were told the release date was 22 December 2024. A lot of disappointed customers. The wait goes on!! š®
Love that you are engaging Catholic Bible and Catholic teachings from Catholic scholars. I think you are being fair while respectfully disagreeing.
I wanted to point out that there is a full size map in the back that gives the alternate path that the Israelites may have walked during the Exodus.
Peace be with you this Christmas and new year.
Hi! Out of topic. While watching your video I noticed there's a yellow high light in the pages and it did not bleed, hope you can share what you used. Thanks and God bless!
On the early writing of the Pentateuch. There are two issues. When were the books laid down, and when were they written down. They could have been passed down for a thousand years by people orally.
Many thanks for your review which is helpful. On the issue of "graven images" there is a lot more that could be said and should have been said, for example the statues on the Ark of The Covenant, and later in The Temple in Jerusalem. It is disappointing that it was not mentioned here.
Thanks! Loving the feel of the newly arrived leather Ignatius I saw on sale at Church bookstore. Also, the NIV Archaeological Study Bible is $9 Cdn (maybe $6 US) on Apple Books app right now. (Christmas 2024)
