“The Word of God is not chained”

La Palabra de Dios no está encadenada.
Bernardo Hurault
: el gran autor de la Biblia Latinoamericana, profeta de nuestro tiempo
[The Word of God is not Chained: Bernardo Hurault- The great author of the Latin American Bible, prophet of our time'] This is the title of the new Book by Claretian Missionary, Fr. Jose Agustín Cabré Ruffat.

The book is a brush-stroke on the life of our great friend Bernardo, with whom we worked together for 19 long years before he returned to the Father for his eternal reward in December 2004. This book introduces the person of Fr. Bernardo.

The author in the introduction writes: “Bernardo Hurault has, without a doubt, contributed greatly to the greater diffusion, better understanding and esteem of the Sacred Scripture in the Catholic Church. I do not have knowledge of another person who has actualized the extraordinary work undertaken by this French priest, who put into the hands of the people more than 50 million bibles in near 10 different languages… With this book I put into the hands of the readers the life of a man, of a Christian, a mystic, an apostle, a prophet…”.

The popular Latin American Bible of Fr. Bernardo was translated and published in English with the title, The Christian Community Bible. His deepest aspiration was to counter the influx of numerous protestant version of the Bible and provide the Catholic communities with a pastoral and communitarian reading of the Word of God. The new book by Fr. Jose Agustín Cabré Ruffat is an apt tribute to the great "Servant of the Word"
