This version, renowned for its fidelity to the original texts and its rich annotation tradition, is designed to guide readers through the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, along with the acts of His apostles. The opening of the New Testament presents a brief overview of its origin and structure before delving into the Gospel of St. Matthew. It introduces key figures like Matthew, who was a tax collector and one of the twelve apostles. The genealogy of Jesus is outlined, tracing his lineage back to significant biblical figures like Abraham and David. Early narratives highlight the miraculous conception of Jesus, His humble beginnings, and the significant events surrounding His birth, such as the visit of the Magi and King Herod's reaction.
