How does the Bible form our worship practices? How does liturgy incorporate the Bible?
The Liturgy and Life Study Bible explores these questions and provides answers for today's church. This indispensable guide includes essays from the world's top liturgical and biblical scholars on a variety of subjects, including Jewish liturgical traditions, Psalms as liturgical prayer, early church worship, social justice, sacraments, the Last Supper, and more.
Each book of the Bible has an introduction that includes background information and sets the stage for the reader to discern the liturgical content of each book. Throughout the biblical text, brief comments flag passages that contain something of liturgical or personal prayer interest. A correlation chart highlights the intersection between biblical passages and the Catholic liturgy, listing every place where a verse of the Bible appears in any liturgical book: the Missal, the orders of sacramental rites, even the Roman Gradual and the Martyrology. This one-of-a-kind tool will serve researchers, catechists, preachers, and anyone studying the Bible for the purposes of prayer and meditation. The Liturgy and Life Study Bible is a comprehensive resource that will help the reader engage worship and the Bible anew. Uses the New American Bible, Revised Edition. Cover art by Jan Richardson. Contributors:John W. Martens is professor of theology and director of the Centre for Christian Engagement at St. Mark's College at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. For four years he wrote the Scripture column "The Word" at America Magazine. These columns have been published in three volumes by Liturgical Press, The Word on the Street, Years A, B, and C.
