(Vatican Radio)  Among the many anniversaries of 2016, one in particular has passed unnoticed: the quincentenary of the first edition (editio princeps) of the Greek New Testament by Erasmus of Rotterdam.Listen to Devin Watkins' report on this historic work: Though not actually the first edition of a compiled New Testament in Greek, Erasmus’ editio princeps became an important landmark. Martin Luther used the second edition of Erasmus’ work for his translation of the New Testament into German, the so-called ‘September Testament’. The third edition was used as the textual base for the King James Version of the Bible.As an article in the Osservatore Romano notes, Erasmus of Rotterdam studied at Paris, Oxford, and in Italy and was ordained a Catholic priest in 1492 in the Augustinian Canons Regular. He was a constant critic of ecclesiastic institutions but maintained a healthy distance from Martin Luther and other reformers, with whom he engaged in fre...

He emphasised:  “What we see God do, we are expected to carry on.” The Archbishop continued, “there are no few opportunities to do this. The current state of our nation; the circumstances of the ...
The Democratic Republic of Congo’s Catholic Bishops have told media in Kinshasa that they are confident an accord between President Joseph Kabila and the opposition will be signed. If the agreement is signed, sources in Kinshasa told Aljeezera, it would involve President Joseph Kabila remaining in office until the end of next year, 2017. As it is, it would appear for now, that the political parties and Kabila’s government are bogged down on issues of power-sharing during the transition period. At the heart of the political crisis is President Kabila’ second and final presidential term of office which has expired. Congo's constitutional court approved a request by the electoral commission to postpone elections till 2018. President Kabila says the government needs more time to overcome the massive logistic and financial challenges to holding elections.  The opposition thinks Kabila is simply trying to cling to power beyond his constitutional...
