The Great Commentary of Cornelius a Lapide

by Cornelius à Lapide, Thomas W. Mossman (Translation), Hermenegild (Preparation)

Cornelius a'Lapide created a Scripture Commentary so complete and scholarly that it was practically the universal commentary in use by Catholics (often available only in 30 some Latin volumes) for hundreds of years. As part of the mission of Loreto Publications apostolate we have spent a lot of time and money over the last four years to produce a translation and design a beautiful edition of this priceless commentary so long hidden from the eyes of most Catholics. Now is your opportunity to own masterpiece.
