I just received my greek and hebrew dvd's. I have never taken either (should have taken them in seminary).
I was wondering if someone could suggest a resource or tips that might help me in using these dvd's.
Thank you,
Robert

I asked a similar question a few days ago - Rosie offered one helpful response here:

I would just start watching them. They are pretty self-contained. If you have Logos Scholar's Library or above, you will have all the resources they talk about in the DVD (except BDAG and CHALOT which are extra and are recommended but not required).
I like to run Logos maximized and play the DVD maximized in another window and then toggle back and forth between the two using Alt+Tab (this is on Windows). So I'll watch a bit of the DVD, pause it, switch to Logos and try out what he's just been talking about. Sometimes if the screen view isn't changing much while he's talking, I will toggle away from the video without pausing it and keep listening while I poke around at the stuff in Logos. If you have a dual monitor setup or a very wide monitor, you could put both Logos and the video up side-by-side and not have to switch back and forth between them.
You could watch them through once just to get an overall feel for the content, and then again with pausing to try things out in Logos as you go. If you want to go deeper into the languages than what these DVDs teach, I'd suggest after learning what you can from them, then start your way through either an introductory grammar in Logos (as suggested in my post in the second link Floyd provided above), or watch one of those iTunes U courses I recommended in the first thread that Floyd provided the link to. Here's my actual post within that thread: http://community.logos.com/forums/p/18873/142640.aspx#142640

Looking at Logos 4 Upgrade => http://www.logos.com/upgrade
BDAG (A Greek–English Lexicon of the New Testament and Other Early Christian Literature, 3rd ed.) is in Logos Scholar's Platinum and Portfolio
CHALOT (A Concise Hebrew and Aramaic Lexicon of the Old Testament) is in Logos Scholar's Silver and above - also included in Logos Original Languages base package.
