Pope's new book nears completion October 10, 2006
Pope Benedict XVI is moving quickly toward completion of a new book about Jesus, according to editors who are working with him on the project.
Libreria Editrice Vaticana (LEV), the publishing house for the Holy See, confirmed to the I Media news agency that the Pontiff is working on corrections to his manuscript. It is still too early to predict a publication date, however, they caution. Claudio Rossini, the director of LEV, said that by January 2007 it should be possible to set a date for the book's appearance.
Pope Benedict disclosed last year that he was planning a book on Jesus, a project that he had been considering for some time. This would be the first book written by Benedict XVI during his pontificate; prior to his election, he had written more than 40 books.
