Sinopsis

Examine the Old Testament from within the living tradition of the Catholic Church

The seventeen New Testament volumes in the successful Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture series have been widely acclaimed. The series recently expanded to include readable yet substantive Old Testament commentaries that integrate the best of contemporary biblical scholarship with the traditional understanding of the Old Testament books as prophesying and prefiguring Christ.

Commentary features include:
● Careful exegesis of the biblical text from the perspective of Catholic faith
● In the Light of Christ feature that considers how Old Testament passages are fulfilled in Christ and the New Covenant
● Reflection and Application sections for daily Christian living
● Biblical Background and Living Tradition sidebars that include quotations from Church Fathers, saints, and Church documents
● Biblical, Catechism, and Lectionary cross-references
● Suggested resources and an index of pastoral subjects
● Biblical text from the RSV-2CE

In Sirach, André Villeneuve makes a lesser-known deuterocanonical book accessible to readers. Drawing connections between Sirach, ancient Jewish and Christian commentaries, the theology of St. Thomas Aquinas, and the Catechism of the Catholic Church, Villeneuve demonstrates that Sirach is a treasure trove of enduring wisdom that continues to speak to every age.

Written from a standpoint of faith in the Holy Spirit's inspiration of Scripture, CCSS Old Testament commentaries are designed for preaching, teaching, and applying Scripture to Christian life today. They are packed with features that make them particularly useful to those doing ministry in Catholic parishes. General editors for the series are Mary Healy (Sacred Heart Major Seminary), Mark Giszczak (Augustine Institute), and Peter S. Williamson (Sacred Heart Major Seminary).

De la contraportada

In Sirach, André Villeneuve makes a lesser-known deuterocanonical book accessible to readers. Drawing connections between Sirach, ancient Jewish and Christian commentaries, the theology of St. Thomas Aquinas, and the Catechism of the Catholic Church, Villeneuve demonstrates that Sirach continues to speak to every age.

"This commentary is a gift to the Church, drawing from the best scholarship but communicating Sirach's enduring value to contemporary disciples in understandable language. Dr. Villeneuve respects Sirach as an inspired book while emphasizing that its teaching needs to be understood in light of its Christian fulfillment. He shows in very helpful ways how the enduring wisdom of Sirach is relevant for believers today. An impressive work indeed."
--Ralph Martin, STD, Sacred Heart Major Seminary

"More than certainly brilliant biblical scholarship, this book is also beautiful and accessible. Reading it felt more like worship than study."
--Barbara Nicolosi, columnist, National Catholic Register

"Years ago, Villeneuve taught me about the nuptial origins of the Church in the covenant with Israel. His love for Israel and for the Church is evident again in this marvelous commentary on Sirach, or Ecclesiasticus, the book of the Church. From questions of liturgy (temple worship) to politics (foreign domination), Villeneuve is a trustworthy guide to Sirach's wisdom for today."
--Fr. Raymond J. de Souza, National Catholic Register

Praise for the Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture

"The New Testament volumes in this series have served me as a constant resource: deeply scholarly, firmly in touch with the Catholic tradition, and impressively readable and teachable. But among Christians today, the Old Testament often is neglected or treated as unintelligible--with the result being a tragic impoverishment of faith. All Catholics should have these trustworthy volumes at hand."
--Matthew Levering, Mundelein Seminary
