Academic Hebrew Grammars, Lexica, and BHS Package?

I am a graduate student (M.Div.) interested in in academic endeavors. It seems like it would be beneficial not only to myself but also to other grad students and academics like myself to have a reasonably priced library expansion that included the following works:

An Introduction to Biblical Hebrew Syntax - by Waltke and O'Connor

A Grammar of Biblical Hebrew - by Jouon and Muraoka

Gesenius' Hebrew Grammar

HALOT (5 vols.)

Clines Dictionary of Classical Hebrew (8 vols.)

BDB Complete

BHS w/ the Apparatus

The Masorah of Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia

As it stands now, one would have to purchase almost all of these separately. And that, of course, would be utterly too expensive for a grad student to purchase. Seeing as how this bundle/expansion would be useful to many other students of Biblical Hebrew, I recommend bundling them and setting a reasonable price for the lot of them.

A lowly Divinity student,

    Hi Jonathan - and wcome to the forums

    Are you familiar with https://www.logos.com/product/126577/biblical-languages 

    It doesn't have all the resources you mentioned and is only available to people in the Logos Acedemic Program ( for which I assume you would qualify) but is well worth looking at.

    I don't work for Logos - but my understanding is that these are often not bundled because, well, people will pay full price for them separately. Some point fingers at Logos - others at the print publishers...

    That said, you may want to check out the Biblical Languages Library at https://www.logos.com/product/126577/biblical-languages to see if you can get it through your school. It does not have all you want, but still looks like a good start to me - who has been out of school for a while.

    As Graham mentioned, there is a Logos academic discount program. I hope your school is involved and you are eligible for it, as it is sure to save you money on the resources you listed.
