 June 2, 2010 in Dodoma, about 120 Bishops and key church leaders from around Tanzania took a break from a grueling programme during the Annual Christian Council of Tanzania (CCT) Bishop's Conference to dedicate the newly published Kiswahili edition of the Africa Bible Commentary – ABC – (Ufafanuzi wa Biblia katika Mazingira na Utamaduni wa Kiafrika – UBK).
The first-ever one-volume Bible commentary to be published in an African language was received with jubilation and thanksgiving by the Bishops who hailed it as the “wonderful tool that will help Christians in Eastern and Central Africa understand the Bible better.
The ABC gives a section-by-section interpretation that provides a contextual, readable, and useful guide to the entire Bible. It also contains 70 articles on pertinent issues facing Africa's churches such as HIV/AIDS, angels/demons/powers, funeral and burial rites, widows and orphans, and persecution. |
