The New Community Bible (NCB) is a Catholic Bible published by The Society of Saint Paul. It is the revised edition of the popular Christian Community Bible, which was translated by the late Bernardo Hurault, a French Priest and biblical scholar, from original languages to Spanish in 1971, and that was then translated into many languages.
 
The New Community Bible provides a new version of the Bible in English, in a language that is adapted and understandable to all English-speaking readers. It makes available a Bible that provides also the necessary and sufficiently adequate introductions, explanations and commentaries, so that the believers can safely grow familiar with the Sacred Scripture and read them fruitfully and experience a transformation of life.
 
The NCB is a great resource for all those who wish to have a deeper understanding of the scriptures and a great help for all those who make use of Scripture in daily prayer, in Bible study groups in schools and parishes and in small communities.
