In 1954, after a year of negotiations, the [[American Standard Version|Standard Bible]] Committee granted the Catholic Biblical Association of Great Britain permission to print a Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition (RSV-CE) Bible. Originally, the RSV-CE New Testament was to have been issued as early as 1956, but [[Bernard Griffin|Cardinal Griffin]], who had approved the plan, died before he could give it an imprimatur. A delay of nearly a decade ensued before [[Gordon Gray (cardinal)|Archbishop Gray]] of St. Andrews and Edinburgh gave the RSV-CE New Testament the necessary imprimatur.
