DESCRIPTIONS

The Cambridge Cornerstone Bible uses the ESV Catholic Edition Bible text, produced by a team of more than 80 leading scholars. It includes all 73 books of the Bible accepted by the Roman Catholic Church, including the Greek texts of Tobit, Judith, 1-2 Maccabees, Wisdom of Solomon, Sirach and Baruch, as well as the additions to the texts of Daniel and Esther. All the books appear in Septuagint order. This high quality Bible is robustly bound in luxurious black cowhide leather with two ribbon markers, and is finished with gilt edges for a traditional look. It includes a presentation page and a 6-page family record section at the front, for personalisation, and would make a beautiful gift. The Bible is built to last and has a fully sewn binding which allows the pages to lie flat when open and gives strength and durability. A large format Bible, the Cornerstone Edition uses a contemporary font in a generous size for ease of reading. Presented in a double-column paragraph format, there are explanatory notes and section headings to aid understanding and navigation. At the back, there is a section of maps and plans detailing the Biblical world.
