The Bible, published earlier this year, is the first to highlight more than 2,000 passages that relate to poverty and injustice.

The presentation is part of a Bible Society initiative during the Synod of Bishops to establish better links between the 204-year-old charity and the Catholic Church.

Archbishop Vincent Nichols, a vice-president of Bible Society, welcomed the Poverty and Justice Bible. He said: "A great theme of the Bible is that God 'hears the cry of the poor'. I'm sure that this initiative will help us to understand and explore this rich theme."

I'm not so sure how I feel about a Bible that "specialises" in highlighting one aspect of the Word of God.
