Master of the Sacred Page honors Father Roland Murphy's zeal for the Word of God and his contribution to the Church as a Carmelite, teacher and scholar. This volume includes two recent interviews in which Fr. Murphy recalls his personal history and reflects on important developments in the Church in this century, such as the impact of Divino Afflante Spiritu and the changes in Catholic biblical scholarship occasioned by the Second Vatican Council. It also contains scholarly articles of biblical and Carmelite interest, including studies on Saint Thérèse of Lisieux in this centennial year of her death. Carmelites who have known him as teacher and brother reflect on his influence in their lives with heartfelt remembrances. An up-to-date bibliography of Father Murphy's publications appears in these pages. Like the great medieval biblical scholars, Father Roland Murphy has been a Master of the Sacred Page for the Carmelite family and for countless other students of the Bible. This volume celebrates his eighty years of life and his dedication to interpreting the Word of Cod for the Church.
