Of the works you mentioned, I would go with Robertson. First, he was an impeccable scholar. You mentioned you have Baptist Starter. Robertson was a Southern Baptist. Second, because his work is verse-by-verse the words are discussed in context. People with no understanding of Greek or Hebrew often get a dictionary but do not have the skill to really

Michael, Do you have any knowledge of Greek or Hebrew? What are you hoping the resource will provide? If we knew the answers to these questions, we could probably give better advice.

Robertson, Vincent, and Wuest are all verse-by-verse commentaries on the words in the text. Vines is a dictionary that has an entry for each word.

Here is a screen shot of the four you mentioned.

[quote user="Michael S."]Ok, I assume that "parallel" resources to Vines would be Vincent and Wuest- right?[/quote] No, Robertson, Vincent, and Wuest are all "parallel."
-
[quote user="Bruce Dunning"]Robertson's Word Pictures is set up by canonical order which is good if you are going through a particular book but Vine's is more of a dictionary to look up specific words.[/quote] Yes, you are comparing apples to oranges. Bruce's summary is spot on.

I agree with the positive sentiments here. I LOVE Logos!!!!! I tell people about it all the time. I have become a full blown Logosian! Which is my way of saying I'm all in. So if you hear a complaint from me, realize that it's minuscule compared to all the good I could say. To all Faithlife employees, the ones I've encountered and the ones I haven't

I'm in. Thanks for bringing attention to this one.

[quote user="Joel Madasu"]I moved to Mellel .[/quote] From the website it looks like this program is only available for Mac. I'm a PC guy.

[quote user="Joel Madasu"] I had to stop using it because it didn't work well with Hebrew text[/quote] That is a flaw. Doesn't work well with Greek either. [quote user="Joel Madasu"]So I moved to another one.[/quote] What did you move to?

[quote user="James Hiddle"]Scrivener looks like a nice piece of software.[/quote] It is outstanding! I wrote my doctoral thesis with this software. I know this is a Logos forum, but this product is in no way in competition with Logos, so I would recommend anyone that does serious writing of any type to check out this software. It is really powerful

[quote user="Mark Barnes"]Pseudo page-numbers every 300 words or so would be fine, and could be added automatically with little hassle.[/quote] Exactly.

[quote user="Rosie Perera"]But really, we should all (including professors and even PhD committees) be willing to accept the new standards for citing digital resources.[/quote] I'd don't know that there is a standard and the options I have seen thus far are insufficient in my opinion. I'm okay with some type of digital reference that a reader can follow

[quote user="Francis"]Really, it would be simpler if ALL resources had page numbers included ALWAYS.[/quote]

[quote user="Stephen Steele"]Sounds like he doesn't have an SSD, which as a few people note in the comments makes a big difference.[/quote] I went to a SSD last year and yes it makes a big difference. Well worth the investment.

[quote user="Todd Phillips"] Dictionary of the Later New Testament & Its Developments (resource date: 2012-06-21T19:45:19Z)[/quote] Yes, I use this constantly and have to keep a hard copy close by to check page numbers. [quote user="Todd Phillips"]Can you speak to those?[/quote] I'd like to hear the explanation also.

[quote user="Kyle G. Anderson"]We don't include page milestones in Vyrso resources.[/quote] That's good to know. I knew some didn't, but I did not realize that all Vyrso books were missing page numbers. [quote user="Kyle G.
