 The Catholic Study Bible October 13, 2008
I have multiple Bibles at home but this is beats them all. Very easy to read, Notes are extremely helpful, as well as the reading guide in the front of the book which helps you put what you are reading into a historlical perspective, making it easier to understand.
I highly reccomend this Bible to all that are starting their studies of the Sacred Book.
Awesome Study Bible May 7, 2008
It is so great to have a study Bible that has historical information and liturgal information that the Protestant Church is missing out on so much of today.
 Is this really an update? April 16, 2008

I am not going to get into the discussion about the positive and negative features of the NAB, but rather focus on a couple things about this 2nd Edition of the Catholic Study Bible.
Two things stand out to me:
1) I really don't see the need in revising the older edition. To be honest, much of the material remains the same as in older versions. The textual notes, which come with all NAB's, is exactly the same. In addition, the inclusion of expanded reading guides and the terribly bland looking in-text maps seems to be hastly arranged.
2) I dislike the visual format of this edition. Personally, the original 1990 version of the Catholic Study Bible is much better. Does anyone else find the print too light? Also, the cross-referencing apparatus I think is not helpful, as well as the divide between the Sacred Text and the notes, which seems to similar.
While there are other study Bibles for Catholics in the process of being developed, like the Ignatius Study Bible, I am not sure this version is going to stand the test of time. I would rather use an older edition of The Catholic Study Bible or the much better HaperCollins Study Bible.
