I just ran across the following footnote in a student paper. After citing a biblical text the author provided this bibliographic information, being sure to cite the author:Holy Spirit. The New American Bible. Grand Rapids, Michigan: Catholic World Press, 1970.

Hey, if the student can still say with a straight face that the Holy Spirit is the author of Sacred Scripture (after reading the introductory notes in the NAB), then DEO GRATIAS!
I would have deducted a mark for an incomplete citation since he didn't also include the name of the human author (Dei Verbum, paragraph 11).
And yes, I'm mean like that :-D
While the NAB is not as precise as the RSV, at least they translate 'Amen' literally in the 'Amen, Amen I say to you...' sayings in the Gospels. A hardy Amen to that! :)
That is awesome! =)
Whoa, saying the translation's inspired? I think I'd take off a point ... as much as I prefer the NAB to your other English Bibles.
(the picture works for people? Angel == Holy Spirit? Doesn't work for me. Too muse-like, no offense.)
