L/V 10 Tip of the Day #36 Psalm Explorer missing detail information

Another tip of the day (TOTD) series for Logos/Verbum 10. They will be short and often drawn from forum posts. Feel free to ask questions and/or suggest forum posts you'd like to see included. Adding comments about the behavior on mobile and web apps would be appreciated by your fellow forumites. A search for "L/V 10 Tip of the Day site:community.logos.com" on Google should bring the tips up as should this Reading List within the application.

This tip is inspired by the forum post: BUG: Psalm Explorer - Detail view empty - Logos Forums

Every few months someone posts on the forums a problem of no detail information in the Psalm Explorer i.e. no data on this panel.

The most common reasons are (a) not owning the Lexham Hebrew Bible or (b) not having the Lexham Hebrew Bible on this device. The "about" information provided by the interactive tool hints at the necessity of this resource.

It is not reasonable to expect oneself to remember exactly which resources are required for each tool. What is important is to remember that a missing required resource (book or dataset) is a possibility to consider. Or at least, to remember that the forums had someone else missing the detail information and there was a simple solution.

MJ sorry to post off topic. I've noticed you've seemingly switched from the NRSV to the ESV-CE as of late. I wanted to pick your brain on that. I like the NRSV for a few reasons (even though my non-denominational denomination would scorn me for that). One of those reasons is the addition of the Deuterocanonical books, another being the ecumenically minded nature of it.
A few questions:
1) Do you see the ESV-CE replacing the NRSV in your personal studies?
2) Do you ever see the ESV-CE replacing the NRSV in the classroom in the foreseeable future? This seems curious to me as it originated from a complementarian, Calvinistic, and evangelical-leaning Bible, which didn't have any ecumenicism in mind during their translating.
3) I assume Crossway lent the rights to someone from the Catholic tradition for them to make significant revisions, am I right in that assumption? Are there any interesting revisions?

1) Do you see the ESV-CE replacing the NRSV in your personal studies?

No, I am firmly attached to the ecumenical canon. However, I am also firmly attached to translations approved for liturgical use in some portions of the English speaking world. ESV-CE is approved for the lectionary of the Catholic Church in India since 2020 and is under consideration elsewhere.

2) Do you ever see the ESV-CE replacing the NRSV in the classroom in the foreseeable future? This seems curious to me as it originated from a complementarian, Calvinistic, and evangelical-leaning Bible, which didn't have any ecumenicism in mind during their translating.

I don't know the answer to this but the personal beliefs of the translators is of less importance to me than the quality of their scholarship/translation.

3) I assume Crossway lent the rights to someone from the Catholic tradition for them to make significant revisions, am I right in that assumption? Are there any interesting revisions?
