YES!!! That would be immensely helpful! I hope it is not too difficult to program? And it wouldn't help making an English dictionary available too. The Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, Tenth Edition is supposed to be one of the 3000 books to be available on the iPhone as posted by Dan 3 months ago , but somehow it hadn't made it into the iPhone

I looked up the paradigms for suffices, and indeed the suffix for both the 1st plural and 3rd mascular singular suffix can look similar (excerpt from Weingreen's Grammar): The differences in the above paradigm being that: (1) The resh in the above paradigm is pointed with a segol for the 3ms suffix but with a sere for the 1st plural suffix. So since

I don't have a hardcopy so I don't know about it, but it looks like they're not that important? But indices are missing in many resources, and sometimes they're very helpful (the scriptural indices of my Gesenius' Grammar and Figures of Speech used in the bible being some of them). Though there're some workarounds (e.g. the "cited by" tool) I'd be most

Kolen, for what you want (a good one volume commentary and a good dictionary), I think you should seriously consider the Essential IVP Reference Collection. The IVP Dictionaries (Dictionary of Jesus and the Gospels, Dictionary of Paul and His Letters, Dictionary of the Later New Testament and Its Developments, Dictionary of New Testament Background

Any news on when the IVP Dictionary of the Old Testament: Wisdom, Poetry and Writings may be available in Logos? I was flipping through one in the local bookstore today and it looks like a very good addition to the IVP dictionaries already available on Logos.

Roger, you can find if a title is there by searching for it in the library. If you want to see what new titles are added to your library you could do it under Firefox with Delta (need to download it separately), and point the browser to h t t p : / / library . l o g o s . c o m / r e s o u r c e s . h t m l ? s t a r t =0& a m p ; l i m i t = 1 0 0

Since L4 is a moving target and new functionalities are added all the time, I would imagine that there would be a difference between how you research a passage in Logos 4.0a vs. say Logos 4.0c. So may be it's not a bad idea to wait a while for the title to appear?

I just realised that Logos carries the NBC. I wonder what books are in the tournament of this year's March Madness? Perhaps the NBC would make a good candidate? [hint, hint, hint]

Kolen, it seems that you live in the same city as I do (Hong Kong). Have you considered the local seminaries? Or maybe taken some ad hoc or evening courses to see how you like (or do not like) it?

Kolen, you can look into these books if you want to have an idea how the commentaries differ and what people think of them: Old Testament Commentary Survey , New Testament Commentary Survey , Commentary and Reference Survey . The last one's actually got a section on bible software and of course you can find some good words about Logos in it.

I woke up this morning to find 50 more titles appearing on my iPhone library, some of which I have very much wanted to read on the iPhone. This is very nice indeed. Thank you Logos! 1. Beyond the Bible: Moving From Scripture to Theology - Marshall, I. Howard; Vanhoozer, Kevin; Porter, Stanley 2. The Biblical Illustrator - Exell, Joseph S. 3. Central

I don't know if anyone else is having the same problem? When I do a bible word study in Greek, after clicking on the loudspeaker icon I can only get the word to be read aloud properly when I'm on Wifi. If I'm on 3G then I get an infinite waiting icon, which flickers at regular intervals. I'm wondering if it is a carrier issue and what I can do to rectify

I thought this was an issue of text rendering, did not realize that the issue is so complicated. The WPF 4 looks promising. The "Display formatting" gives something closer to the text on Mac L4 which I am totally happy about. I hope we get to select between the various rendering options (such as ClearType, Grayscale and Aliased) in L4 when WPF 4 is

I think the problem of blurry font in L4 is related to font antialiasing rather than the font itself (possibly the ?font color as well but I'm not sure about it). Here's a screenshot of the same text in L3 and L4 at 100% font size, and the Mac A14 at a comparable font size. I don't know what you see but I think the L4 text looks "fluffier" (more white

I was checking on the Prepub page just now, and found a gem that I have missed earlier on! I didn't realise that the book "Classical Hebrew poetry, A Guide to its Techniques" is one of the titles in the Hebrew Studies Collection . Maybe because the cover looks differently than my paperback copy. It's a really good book that our Hebrew teacher recommended

[quote user="Amy Leung"] (of course I would mind if Logos would offer the unabridged Dictionary of Classical Hebrew too ). [/quote]Oops, I meant "I wouldn't mind"... This is a great Hebrew dictionary set reflecting the latest scholarship in the Hebrew language I hope it would make it into Logos!

Yes, I emptied the trash as well and there was no time machine (no humongous HD for me).

[quote user="Jack Caviness"] With the progress being made on L4 Mac I wonder if it is worth the cost and effort to pursue this path. I only use Windows for Logos and for TurboTax Business, and soon I won't need it for Logos. TurboTax doesn't require much. [/quote] I'm using Windows for my book scanner too, and I also access L3 at my office and L4 in

I wonder if Logos could consider offering the Concise Dictionary of Classical Hebrew? This title has been recently available made for a competitive program but I have no interest in building another library. I have the hardcopy of the CDCH and there are two things that I really like about it. 1. statistics: the number of occurrences of the word in the
