Reader ReviewsThe Ignatius Catholic Study Bible is a great tool for small groups seeking to understand the Bible from a Catholic perspective. This knowledge-packed, 82-page paperback, is composed of five major sections: - Introduction to the Ignatius Study Bible - Introduction to the Gospel according to Luke - Outline of the Gospel According to Luke - Gospel with Commentary by Scott Hahn and Curtis Mitch - Study Questions by Dennis Walters The commentary includes historical background, with maps, and categorized notes. The notes have symbols next to them indicating whether they are: - content and unity - living tradition - analogy of faith The study questions are grouped by chapter, and then broken down into two sections per chapter: "For understanding" and "For application." The understanding questions are textual analysis questions. " The application questions are pertinent for the spiritual lives of Catholics. However, space was not provided within the questions themselves for notes. There are several notes pages at the end of the book, but white space was not allotted within the questions themselves. Overall, the organization of this study guide makes it an effective tool for novices, and challenging for for more knowledgeable Catholics.
