L9 provided enhanced commentary sorting in the Commentaries Section of Passage Guide.  The sorting options include the following:

  • Resources can be sorted according to: 
    • Priority - your prioritization.
    • Series - series name
    • Author - author’s last name
    • Denomination - author’s denominational association
    • Type - Apparatus, Application, Exegetical, Expositional, Homiletic, etc.
    • Era:
      • Ante-nicene (AD 100-325)
      • Nicene (AD 326-451)
      • Byzantine (AD 452-1054)
      • Medieval (AD 1055-1516)
      • Reformation (AD 1517-1699)
      • Modern (AD 1700-1959)
      • Contemporary (AD 1960-present)

The complete list of Type that shows when my passage guide is opened includes the following:  Apparatus; Application; Bible Notes; Concise; Devotional; Exegetical; Expositional; Homiletic; Study Bible; Theological.

Apparently new in L9, as noted in Wiki, didn't really notice until L10.  Was wondering if anyone has criteria of how the commentaries are classified that they fall into the listed categories.  Era is nicely defined.  Looking for descriptors of the Types.  All the helps and digging done does not provide how the commentaries are classified.  I've looked at get exposed in those categories and could try and develop criteria, would be nice know how Logos folks classified them.

Thanks, in advance.

    My weekly bumping of unanswered posts in hopes that they will get an appropriate response.

    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."
