Commentary
on the Four Gospels
Sale Price: $255.00 ORDER HERE - ORDER INFORMATION
Cornelius a Lapide
STK# 8284
THE GREAT
SCRIPTURE COMMENTARY OF FR. CORNELIUS A LAPIDE, S.J.
The Holy Gospels According to Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, in Four
Volumes
With this new edition, the full genius of Jesuit Fr. Cornelius a Lapide
is available in English for the first time. Over the last 400 years
this has been the most complete commentary in use by the Catholic
Church, known for successfully combining piety and practicality. His
age was that of the Counter Reformation, so Fr. a Lapide included
plenty of apologetics. His vast scholarship is equaled, however, by
his piety, giving freshness and power to his commentary which lacks
in others. He was so known for his zealous holiness that he was buried
in a separate place in order to find him more easily when eventually,
it was hoped, he would be beatified. He is responsible for receiving
St. John Ogilvie (hanged in 1615) into the Church and for administering
Extreme Unction to St. John Berchmans.
For nearly thirty years I suffer with and for Thee with gladness the
continual martyrdom of religious life, the martyrdom of illness, the
martyrdom of study and writing. Obtain for me also, I beseech Thee,
to crown all, the fourth martyrdom of blood. For Thee I have spent
my vital and animal spirits. I will spend my blood, too.
This is a line-by-line reading of all the Gospels, applying history
and the richness of the Church Fathers, with from a half-page to two
pages of commentary for each line. A Catholic powerhouse. It is known
to have made converts.
• St. Louis de Montfort spoke of Fr. a Lapide's commentary as
the basis of his "slavery to Mary" when he wrote:
Fr. Cornelius de Lapide, as praiseworthy for his piety as for his
profound erudition, having been commissioned by several bishops and
theologians to examine this devotion, did so with great thoroughness
and deliberation, and praised it in a manner which we might nave expected
from his well-known piety; and many other distinguished persons have
followed his example? [St. Louis Mary de Montfort in his True Devotion
to Mary].
• Used heavily by St. Gaspar Bertoni, founder of the Stigmatine
Fathers and Biblical scholar.
• Favorite of St. Anthony Mary Claret, great missionary to Cuba,
founder of the Claretian Fathers.
• Utilized by St. Robert Bellarmine, Doctor of the Church and
Patron Saint of Catechists.
• Praised by Dom Gueranger, author of The Liturgical Year, who
made available to the faithful the treasures of the Missal as had
Fr. a Lapide made available the treasures of Scripture.
• Preferred by Fr. Denis Fahey, the greatest expositor of the
Church's social doctrine in the English language.
• An essential library selection of priests for sermon-writing,
catechism classes, and convert instructions.
• Well within the grasp of laypeople desiring to study the traditional
Catholic interpretation of the Gospels.
• Understand symbolism, cultural accents, mystical and allegorical
meanings, and historical context. Know God in order to love God in
order to serve God.
• Material for substantive and picturesque meditations for laypeople,
especially Third Order members and resolute Ignatian retreatants.
• Heirloom look and feel. Indestructible sewn bindings. Red
leather, gold-embossed, 6" x 9" hardcover with satin ribbon.
• Almost 3,000 pages in four volumes. A Catholic family's greatest
Scripture resource.
• Never fully translated before
• First four of over 30+ volumes to come
• Extensive discussion of Greek and Hebrew word meanings

Divine
Office
Sale Price: $39.75 ORDER HERE - ORDER INFORMATION
Compiled by Angelus Press
STK# 6597
What
does it gain a man to have his whole life perfectly organized but
to lose his soul?
It's so easy to lose sight of God in our busy world. But the Church
gave us the answer from the very beginning when she structured her
official prayer around a framework of the psalms prayed eight times
a day so that within one week, all 150 psalms are said.
Here you have the most critical hours of the Divine Office for the
layman in the world. Prime is the perfect Morning Prayer, Compline
the perfect night prayer, and Sext is for the middle of the day.
This is better than private prayer; it's the prayer of the entire
Mystical Body because you pray with one heart with the millions of
other clerics, religious and laymen around the world who have prayed
and are praying these exact same prayers, AND because you adopt the
intentions of the psalmist as you pray.
When understood correctly (this edition has a short explanation preceding
each psalm), these are the intentions for which Holy Mother Church
wants us to pray for ourselves, for the Church and for all the members
of the Mystical Body of Christ.
Our Lord, our Lady, and the Saints prayed these psalms.
Includes:
•An 11-page Introduction explaining the Divine Office and how
to pray it, including guidelines on how to interpret the psalms in
a Catholic manner
•Table of Contents
•The prayers to be said before and after reciting the Divine
Office
•Melodies in Gregorian notation for those who chant the office
in common.
•In timeless Latin with parallel English translations.
•Beautiful edition with sewn binding
•Leatherette cover
•Rounded edges
•Black text with rubrics in red
•Two ribbons
Includes everything for the Hours of Sunday Lauds, Prime, Sext, Vespers,
and Compline; Prime, Sext, and Compline for each other day of the
week.
Individually shrink-wrapped. Latin pronunciation guide bookmarker
included.
221pp, leatherette sewn hardcover, 2 ribbons.

Practical
Commentary
Sale Price: $42.45 ORDER HERE - ORDER INFORMATION
Bp. Frederick Justus Knecht
STK# 7093
A great
introductory Bible study that shows that the early Church was the
Catholic Church and that the Bible is a Catholic book. Received recommendations
from 14 bishops when first published and went through at least 16
editions.
This commentary is not for scholars, but rather for the "ordinary"
Catholic. It hands on to new generations the classic Scriptural teachings
on faith and morals - from both Old Testament and New Testament -
in a manner that is easy to understand.
A typical chapter will first tell the Bible story, based on the Douay-Rheims
Bible, with many fascinating explanations of particular words and
phrases. Then follow many brief explanations of topics in the Scripture
passage, showing clearly the Catholic doctrines that are contained
there. These include teachings on the Church, the Mass, the Sacraments
- especially the Holy Eucharist - Sanctifying Grace, intercessory
prayer, Mortal Sin and Venial Sin, Forgiveness, the Will of God, Heaven,
Hell, Purgatory, the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and much more.
Finally, a brief "application" to daily life is given in
each chapter. (Some of these are aimed at youth, yet overall they
apply to everyone.) Every Catholic family, every classroom, every
home school, every catechist and every priest should have a well -
used copy of A Practical Commentary on Holy Scripture.
844 pp, softcover, Includes a special 30 page index.
