Bevil Bramwell, OMI’s Well-Researched Book “Catholics read the Scriptures: Commentary on Benedict XVI’s Verbum Domini” Pleases Book Critics

Many Christians read the Bible, others don’t even read God’s Word. As reading the Scripture is a spiritual discipline, people must be disciplined in how they grasp its contents. The Letter to the Romans details what people can know about God from general revelation. Without the Scripture, one cannot know God’s power and divine nature (Romans 1:20). It is good to try to understand them in light of their immediate context to avoid misunderstanding Biblical texts, especially when they touches on the Church’s understanding and teachings.

Bevil Bramwell, OMI’s “Catholics Read the Scriptures: Commentary on Benedict XVI’s Verbum Domini” is an excellent text that discusses Pope Benedict XVI’s Verbum Domini and was written to provide a concise exposition of the Catholic Church’s doctrine on Scripture. In his book, Bramwell, OMI offers a graduate-level critique of Benedict’s exhortation discussion of the Catholic use of Scripture in prayer, liturgy, and theology.

Critics praised father Bramwell’s commentary on Verbum Domini. An article in the Kirkus Review described his book as a well-research explanation of Pope Benedict XVI’s work. Similarly, the Blue Ink Review commended its writing. “Well-researched and expertly footnoted, Bramwell’s book is erudite, helpful, and impressive. He takes a dense document, unfolds its complexity, and keeps his explanations straightforward and focused,” an article from the Blue Ink Review stated.

In his honest criticism of Father Bramwell’s book, Matt Benzing from the Foreword Reviews is pleased with its citations, calling it thorough and relevant. Benzing acclaimed its capacity to encourage further study.
