Barclay NT Commentary: Purchased the older edition and was switched to the newer edition

Wayne

About ten years ago in a purchase of the Logos Gold package of that time I received the original edition of Barclay Bible Study commentaries.  For a number of years I continued with the original edition. I noticed a few years back that I now have the Revised commentary.

At times it has been stated that if you ever purchase a product that you will always be able to keep the product. I called Customer Service a few weeks back but they are not able to do anything. Is there any possibility that those of us who purchased the old edition could retain that edition?

I am guessing you are possibly mistaken. Here are both items Logos offered.

(iv) There is an endless quality about the Christian faith. It should never stand still. Because our Lord is a living Lord there are new wonders and new truths waiting to be discovered all the time.

 William Barclay, ed., The Gospel of Mark, The Daily Study Bible Series (Philadelphia, PA: The Westminster John Knox Press, 1976), 369.

(4) There is an endless quality about the Christian faith. It should never stand still. Because our Lord is a living Lord there are new wonders and new truths waiting to be discovered all the time.

 William Barclay, The New Daily Study Bible: The Gospel of Mark, The New Daily Study Bible (Edinburgh: Saint Andrew Press, 2001), 430.

NOW if your have only the second, yes you have been replaced (this would irk many people who were forced to purchase the updated version at full cost), if you have the first you have what Logos offered up until 2005(6?) when they pulled it and the OT DSB. Barclay was revised back in the late 70s and was the only edition Logos ever sold. I still have both editions in my Logos library.
