What is The New Testament of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ (The Confraternity Edition) about?

At their 1936 annual conference, the American bishops agreed to undertake a revision of Bishop Challoner’s New Testament, which would be carried out by the newly formed Catholic Biblical Association of America (CBA), established by Bishop Edwin O’Hara, chair of the Episcopal Committee on the Confraternity of Christian Doctrine (CCD). The Clementine Vulgate would be the primary translation source, but it was to be corrected against the original language manuscripts, employing the scientific methods promoted by Providentissimus Deus. A provisional version of the Gospel of John provided to American bishops and Biblical scholars in 1938 by CBA translator William L. Newton is available in used book markets. In 1941, the full Confraternity New Testament was published in a volume that swapped the traditional two-column verse-by-verse layout with a single-column paragraph format. There were also two-column editions issued which retained the new paragraph layout.A corresponding revision of the Old Testament was permanently suspended, however, after Pope Pius XII issued his 1943 encyclical Divino Afflante Spiritu (Inspired by the Divine Spirit), which called for Catholic Biblical translation
