Verbum Domini also clearly situates Scripture in the eclesial and faith context in which it belongs, doing more than any of the previous documents to indicate specifically how the various contexts in which Scripture is used - in the liturgy, in personal prayer, and in theological study - can and must be integrated with one another.
Essential reading for any Catholic student of theology, and profitable reading for any Catholic, indeed any Christian, who wants to gain a deeper understanding of Scripture
