Paulist Biblical Commentary, The

The volume consists of a commentary on each of the seventy-three books of the Catholic canon of the Bible along with twelve general articles. While based on classical approaches to Scripture, the commentaries and articles are not limited to historical-literary issues, but draw upon relevant theological and pastoral ideas found in the text. The Paulist Biblical Commentary presents: · Solid exegesis of the biblical text. · A useful tool for preaching and spiritual nourishment. · An essential aid to deepen the understanding of Scripture. · Current biblical research that is relevant to pastoral or spiritual ministry. The Commentary brings together the collaboration of more than seventy international biblical scholars, each with expertise in their area of study drawn from their experience and interest in pastoral or spiritual ministry.
Saint Pierre of New York
This exquisitely illustrated graphic novel tells how Pierre went from being a house slave to being an independent businessman, a hairdresser to wealthy socialites in New York City--to having a cause for sainthood, for his faith, prayer, and loving service to others.

This fascinating telling of Pierre's life story, starting from his birth in Saint Domingue (now Haiti), will engage the interest of children and young people who otherwise might never hear about a leading Black New Yorker in the first half of 1800s. Pierre Toussaint was the first layperson to be buried beneath the main altar of St. Patrick's Cathedral, usually reserved for bishops of the Archdiocese of New York. He was declared "Venerable" by Pope John Paul II in 1996. +
