Several books on exegesis and hermeneutics (from bibliography Christian Alexander shared)
Christian Alexander recently posted a link to an Exegesis And Hermeneutics Bibliography written by a professor of his.
They all looked like good books. I wished there were a way to automatically find out if Logos carries them all, and make suggestions for the ones it doesn't. I posted about that already. Unfortunately there is no such method yet, so I did the manual work to post suggestions for the books on that list which Logos doesn't carry yet, but which I felt they should.
VOTE FOR ANY OF THESE YOU WISH TO SEE:

Postcolonial Criticism and Biblical Interpretation (R. S. Sugirtharajah; Oxford University Press, 2002)
Once again, it is frustrating how many recent books from the well-known Christian publishers that Logos has been carrying for years (Fortress, Eerdmans, Baylor, Westminster John Knox Press, T&T Clark, Zondervan, Hendrickson) Logos doesn't carry. [:(]

Thanks Rosie - several of these look good.
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."
