Excellent and Extensive
Excellent and Understandable material, there's a Whole Lot in there for One of a Two Volume set of the Whole Bible. The font size is not very big, but if you have your glasses on it's so worth all the extra content.

Ottimo sussidio
Finalmente ho tra le mani un sussidio per la lettura delle Sacre Scritture che non si allunga nelle interpretazioni fantasiose ma riporta per terra, al quel background, nel quale si muoveva Gesu'. Consiglio vivamente a tutti. L'inglese e' molto facile nella sua lettura.
