I am a little frustrated trying to figure out the cheapest option to be able to use the MEV interlinear, without paying for things I don't want, while still being denied access to things that I still want very badly.
Noticed all Verbum Cloud subscription levels include MEV Reverse Interlinears => https://verbumcloud.com/pricing (annual payment costs less per month, but when subscription ends, access goes away).
Least expensive feature upgrade having MEV Reverse Interlinears => https://www.logos.com/product/195576/verbum-9-starter-feature-upgrade (noticed Logos 8 Fundamentals ownership reduces Verbum 9 Starter Feature upgrade dynamic price from $ 249.96 to $193.54)
Keep Smiling [:)]

Hi Matt:
I thought the LEB was cool until I found the following:
LEB.
Deu 6:4 "Hear, Israel, Yahweh our God, Yahweh is unique.

I have a few issues with the LEB but that changes nothing for why I use it Hamilton.

I need to do that. I try not to bother them, even when it means paying more. But this is too far off.P A said:Have you tried contacting customer services?

I wish logos 8 fundamentals was enough. It is not. I prefer other packages and subscriptions to the verbum if I am going to spend more money.

While that may strike your ear as odd, it is within the parameters of the meaning of 'ehhaadh. The word is not just a cardinal number meaning "one". I think the verse is best translated as "YHWH is a unity." What does that mean? Pretty much what " 'Elohhiym is " means...that is, "Gods is" [plural noun/singular verb]. Numerically, the words "unity" and "unify" by definition include more than one. That is because those words indicate that some number greater than one is to be considered "as" one because there is some unifying characteristic that binds them.
Put another way, what does "one" mean in Deut. 6:4? Pretty much the exact thing that "one" means in Jn. 17:22. How many is that? At least 13, since Judas had already been sent packing, but ultimately at least 144,002. All will be 'ehhaadh.
Remember your theosis.

"The Unbelievable Work...believe it or not." Little children...Biblical prophecy is not Christianity's friend.

Yes Matt, LEB is a really good version, I was just surprised to see that rendering.

Shalom David Paul:
Thanks for the clarification. I am not an expert, so is not critical. I am old school, so to me the number one principle for the elect has always been:
Deu 6:4 “Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one. (ESV)
Deu 6:4 HEAR, O ISRAEL: THE LORD OUR GOD, THE LORD IS ONE. (JPS)
Deu 6:4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD. (KJV)
David Paul said:Remember your theosis.
The problem with theosis is that even though in the East they understand it does not mean believers will eventually have self-existence like God has, in the West many groups do think humans will eventually have it. (That is the old satan scheme of wanting to be God without having what it takes [think antiChrist]).
Being a living stone (body of Christ) part of the New Temple of God (Jesus Christ) does not make such living stones equal to the Spirit who dwells there.
I will have to ask Jewish acquaintances what they think of the LEB translation of Deu 6:4 to see what their reaction is. [Even "a unity" seems fine, but unique ? seems strange.]
Peace and grace.

Cut the theological ____ along with misrepresentation of others' beliefs. I know you know better.
Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
