The African Bible

The Bible wants to be “African” as much as possible. It is a Bible with a study-guide for prayer, reflection and sharing according to the expressed wish of the African bishops. In the introductions, notes and comments, parallels have been drawn from the African experience while using the latest insights of scholars from many disciplines in interpreting the message of the Bible.
The illustrations aim at making the historical and geographical background easier to understand, and they offer an artist’s insight into some texts. The Bible is also enriched with: cross references, the 3-year cycle of liturgical readings, the chronology and the glossary/thematic index.

SWAHILI AFRICAN BIBLE
This publication of The African Bible in Swahili is the answer to the Pope’s call and to the African Synod’s invitation: “In order that the Word of God may be known, loved, pondered and preserved in the hearts of the faithful (cf. Lk 2:19.51), greater efforts must be made to provide access to the Sacred Scriptures,
especially through full or partial translations of the Bible... accompanied by study guides for use in prayer and for study in the family and community” (The Church in Africa, No. 58).
