Ignatius Press presents a completely new design and typeset edition of the popular Ignatius Revised Standard Version-Catholic Edition Bible, with minor revisions to some of the archaic language used in the first edition.

This Revised Standard Version of the Bible is a contemporary Catholic English translation without dumbing-down the text. This second edition of the RSV doesn't put the biblical text through a filter to make it acceptable to current tastes and prejudices, and it retains the beauty of the RSV language that has made it such a joy to read and reflect on the Word of God, as well as the perfect choice for academic study and biblical exegesis.

With features that include a completely re-designed and newly typeset with 6 point font size (small print), wider margins and improved line-spacing for comfortable reading, as well as the notes and cross-references that sets the Ignatius Revised Standard Version, Catholic Edition apart, this Bible is perfect for personal use or study.

This Compact edition also includes Catholic prayers and devotions, a presentation section, and a Miraculous Medal on the zipper pull.

Zipper leather cover. Gold leaf page edges. Gift boxed.
