I still don't think that the spreadsheet I provided offers the best view of the data that it could. Here's a copy of the spreadsheet with an extra tab showing the data transposed: 5756.Jude Issues and Stances - 17 August 2018.xlsx I think this is better. However, I still think it could be better presented and easier to use. Hence the request for the

Many thanks, Beloved. I forgot to say thanks to Rodney Philips earlier as well, so a belated thanks, Rodney.

[quote user="Richard Villanueva"] This is interesting information! I wonder if this would be information included in an Interactive or like an extension of a Lexham Bible Guide-type resource?? Or the OP could run some major studying and publish the work himself as a personal endeavor! 😀 [/quote] It could even be an interactive, linked to a much more

[quote user="James Taylor"] [quote user="Andrew Baguley"]I still think it could be better presented and easier to use. Hence the request for the data to be available in Logos.[/quote] I think Logos would be absolutely crazy to not utilize this data like you have so persuasively shown could be done!

Great link, Bradley. Maybe this would be a way of a developer showing Logos what they can do.

Sorry for not responding sooner to this, Jack. I can't say whether that's what Greg Peters was doing, but I do think that his comments were at least misleading. This is just one of many reasons why it would be good to have a resource in Logos that allows us to check claims like this quickly and easily. My suggestion can be found here: https://logos

Thanks, Joey. It's starting to move up in the rankings as a result.

[quote user="Denise"] First, Andrew, I've enjoyed your suggestions. In my own Bible software, I've keyed verses relative to traditions and their theological structures. [/quote] On a different note, Denise, are your "keyed verses relative to traditions and their theological structures" easily shareable? I'd be interested to see them if so.

[quote user="MJ. Smith"] Well this is a surprise - I am usually on the side of "no way can this be made to really work". It has been discussed in the forums before as a prelude to a BibleTech 2011 conference re: the now defunct http://blog.orthotomeo.com/category/examples/ There are a number of reasons that particular project failed, I suspect but the

[quote user="EastTN"] [quote user="Dan Francis"] Still feels over all like a slippery slope that may rob some people of valuable insight. Barclay for example at times verges on universalism. yet even in the moments he does i dare say he usually offers a great deal to chew on that is very good. I hate someone not purchasing or using Barclay's Daily Study

Thanks, MJ. It is indeed not about "true interpretation" (see my response to Dan above). The expression "fact check" drew attention, but the project is about so much more than just being able to fact check expressions like "most scholars say". Hopefully, I demonstrated this with regard to Jude, even if the tools to delve into the data and display it

[quote user="Dan Francis"] [quote user="Andrew Baguley"] To clarify, if a user wanted to equate "Feminist" or "Dispensationalist" or "Catholic" or "Universalist" with 'unreliable' then that would be their choice. All the software would say is that a particular book by someone who is happy to self-define as "Feminist" agreed with such and such a view

I hope many of my comments above have illustrated that this is not just about checking statements that begin "most scholars say...". There are a whole host of different uses, but on a similar theme, I thought I'd add a couple more comments. Here are three examples from IVP's big black dictionary series that remains a bestseller in Logos. 1. On Hell

3. On Hermeneutics in Hebrews "There has been widespread disagreement over the hermeneutical technique used, with some interpreters arguing for a Philonic type (see Philo) of allegorical exegesis (e.g., Sowers, Spicq), but most recent studies (Hanson, Longenecker) have shown a much closer correspondence with Qumran pesher, Jewish midrash and typology

[quote user="Randy W. Sims"] Andrew, Here is a small modification ... [/quote] Many thanks, Randy. That seems to work for the first collection I tested it on at least. I think ideally I would remove all references to publishers and series, leaving just authors. I would then add about another 1000 authors to cover Logos Ultimate (which incorporates all

Any comments, Logos? Phil Gons? Anyone else?

Does anyone know whether there are example collection rules for Introductions? I've had a quick look and can't see any. I'm thinking specifically for books such as those listed under: https://www.bestcommentaries.com/ot-introductions/ and https://www.bestcommentaries.com/nt-introductions/ Thanks.

Thanks everyone. I now have what I need.
