	I believe that you probably refer to the Catholic edition of the
Living Bible, which does indeed bear the imprimatur of the Bishop of
Fort Wayne-South Bend, as well as the nihil obstat. Apparently at one
time Tyndale was sensitive to the issue you raise, as this edition was
originally published under the auspices of Our Sunday Visitor, Inc. of
Huntington, Indiana, publishers of America's largest Catholic newspaper.
(Early printings bore the OSV logo where Tyndale's appears now.)
