Have you ever been so immersed in a book that you couldn’t put it down?
Now imagine that this same book had tiny font, countless small numbers peppered throughout the text, and narrow, tightly-aligned columns.
It would be a whole different reading experience, would it not?
Yet, this is what it’s like to read the Bible.
To help you immerse yourself in the Word of God like never before . . .
. . . Sophia Institute Press has reformatted the New Testament.
We’ve increased the font size, removed the chapter and verse numbers, and expanded the spacing for ease of use and minimal distraction.
Introducing . . . the first ever Catholic Reader’s Bible!
Experience Holy Scripture the way it was meant to be read.
The most prized translation, the Challoner-Rheims, is presented here in the form in which the Scriptures were originally written — without all the organizational distractions.
And what a difference it makes to one’s reading experience!
With this Catholic Reader’s Bible, you can, for the first time, read the inspired Word of God as the early Christians did.
Instead of double columns that squeeze narrow lines of text up against each other, here you’ll find generous, single-column pages graced with handsome, readable type.
For navigation purposes, the top of each page notes the range of verses on that page.
This venerable translation by Bishop Richard Challoner derives from the long-revered Douay-Rheims Bible and employs language that is more intelligible and familiar today while remaining accurate to St. Jerome’s original.
A boon for those who open their Bibles not as scholars but as seekers of an interior experience, the Catholic Reader’s Bible is ideal for both brief devotional moments and lengthier periods of extended reading.
If you’ve never read God’s Word in this way — as it was written — then you’re in for an exciting and inspiring experience.
