Fr
Henry Wansbrough’s
Sunday Gospel Reflection
Dom Henry
Wansbrough, General Editor of the New Jerusalem Bible
who, for many years, was a member of the Pontifical Biblical
Commission, writes the weekly Sunday Gospel reflection/commentary
for the parish
Wednesday Word.
"This is a splendid
and imaginative initiative, to bring the message of the gospel
to Christians at home. Even those who don’t go to church
have the right to hear and think about the gospel, and The
Wednesday Word gives them a chance to do just that. It
will also be a great support to know that others all over
the country are joining in this reflection”
Dom Henry Wansbrough OSB
Fr Henry is a monk
of Ampleforth
Abbey and a world renowned biblical
scholar. He was General
Editor of the New
Jerusalem Bible. Fr Henry recently prepared the CTS Catholic
Bible in which he has written an introductory article to each
book of the Bible, and has prepared footnotes on the text.
He has written twenty books,
more than sixty articles, over a thousand book reviews, and
produced an edition of the Synoptic
Gospels.
