A Translation by a Religious of C.S.M.V. 'Eight hundred years ago St. Bernard died. Lent with St. Bernard contains the gist of a Lent course he gave at Clairvaux. It is a devotional commentary on Psalm 91, the psalm especially associated with our Lord's temptations. St. Bernard does not give milk for babes. His addresses are strong meat. They are typical of the best in the patristic tradition. Written for Religious, they make, in this admirable translation, a very satisfying study for priest and people. Here is a Lenten discipline which will enrich the mind and gladden the heart. If the language is at first unfamiliar, the context is in the authentic tradition of Christian piety. Incidentally, the book provides a first-rate introduction to the Christian Church's use of the Psalter and to the Scriptural evidences of the mind of Christ.' Church Times [review]
