Verbum Domini

| 1 Comment

The Holy Father's post-synodal apostolic exhortation Verbum Domini is an important document, perhaps the most comprehensive official synthesis ever from the Church on the subjects of Scripture and Divine Revelation. It addresses the inspiration of Scripture, the various "senses" in its interpretation, the need for biblical preaching, the place of "private revelation", the relation of biblical studies and the interpretation of Scripture, the need for thorough training in Scripture for seminarians, and numerous other topics.

You can download the text from the Vatican website as a 208-page PDF, formatted as a pocket-sized book. For convenience in printing, I've reformatted it in a more compact 90-page document. (PDF)
