Synopsis

The New Oxford Annotated Bible is a well-established and highly respected study tool used by numerous clergy, students, and academics from a wide range of backgrounds. The Third Edition builds on the strengths of the earlier versions to bring NOAB fully up to date for a new generation of readers. The editorial committee is entirely new, and involves some of the best names in contemporary biblical studies. This team reflects not only breadth of scholarship, but also a broad ecumenical base, ensuring that the notes avoid any denominational or theological bias. The on-page annotations run across the foot of each page, and separate essays are also included, covering such topics as the biblical canon, and an introduction to the various types of biblical criticism.
