Bible changes

A new edition of the Old Testament will soon be released.

Known as the “New American Bible Revised Edition”, this revision will replace some words in favor of more modern vocabulary.

Words such as “booty” and “virgin” no longer bear the same meaning as when the last edition of the New American Bible was released 40 years ago.

The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops approved the New Bible’s changes.

It will soon be available on paper, digitally, and as a cellphone app.
