The C.S. Lewis Bible is slated to be released in October 2010. A news release from the publishers said the Lewis Bible offers one of the most respected Christian thinkers as a companion to a reader’s reflection and study of scripture. According to the news release, the Bible includes such features as over 600 selections from C. S. Lewis for contemplation and devotional reading, introductory essays on Lewis’ view of scripture, and indexes to guide readers to each reading from Lewis.
Lewis’ contributions in literary criticism, children’s literature, fantasy literature, and popular theology brought him international acclaim. He wrote more than thirty books, allowing him to reach a vast audience. His works continue to attract thousands of new readers every year.
“The C.S. Lewis Bible offers a unique way for readers to reflect upon important Biblical passages,” said Mark Tauber, senior vice president of Harper One, publisher of the C.S. Lewis Bible, speaking in a news release. “By pairing Lewis’ writing with scripture, this Bible offers readers the opportunity to gain fresh insight into Lewis’s writings, his own spiritual journey, and to the scriptures themselves.”
