I have the BDAG ,but what is BAGD? I have tried to search it on the Faithlife Web ,but could not find it.
That is the acronym used to refer to the second edition. Because of Danker’s involvement in the third edition, his name moved up.
BAGD (Bauer, Danker, Arndt, and Gingrich) is the second edition of A Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament and Other Early Christian Literature, while BDAG (Bauer, Arndt, Gingrich, Danker) is the third edition, with the acronyms changing as Brian stated. The third edition is a substantial update of the second. The first edition is known as BAG (Bauer, Arndt, and Gingrich)
BAGD was included in Logos backages at the highest level of Logos 2 and was replaced by BDAG in Logos 3.
There have been pushes to get BAGD added back to the store, since there are many older works which cite it in the Logos ecosystem. I started one here.
There have also been pushes to link BAGD references to BDAG, which I am firmly against since they are different editions. You can read one suggestion here.
It’s not going to happen! Unfortunately it’s a publisher‘s decision, so it’s time to drop it and move on. Lots of broken links, but oh well, can’t have it all! Personally, I’m moving on! Hey, at least I managed to get the NIV84 right before it was pulled out 👍

Probably an author/publisher contract, when BDAG was proposed. But it seems disheartening to just ask BAGD be forgotten. Especially since the abbreviation is so hard to remember ... let's see, was that BGAD, no, no ... BDAD ... woops, too many D's.
Then there's the Logosian pecking-order ... those with BAGD and those without (counts more than a 'star'!).
It'd hate for another edition to appear with more authors (and who's most important).

I thought the first one was BAGHDAD 😂😂😂
I have the BDAG ,but what is BAGD?
When I was in Bible College (mid 80s) we referred to BAGD - 2nd version as "Arndt & Gingrich" I don't know why we ignored B - Bauer.
When BDAG - 3rd was released the shortcut of B-DAG was quicker than "Danker, Arndt & Gingrich"
Great thank you now I have realised that as long as I have the BDAG nothing to weary about what it used to be.
