This Catholic commentary on Sirach interprets Scripture from within the living tradition of the Church for pastoral ministers, lay readers, and students.
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.
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.
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
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).
