Because Bibles with the deuterocanonical books (think NRSV) are ordered in the Anglican/Lutheran manner, it can be annoying to go through the extra steps required to put the books in the desired order. I would like all Biblical sorts to give me a choice as to what canonical order to use:Tanakh, Orthodox, Catholic etc... My order is based upon my target audience not the translation I am using.

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."

    I would also love to be able to sort any of my Bibles by Tanakh instead of the default.

    It would be nice for me (and maybe some other users as well) to have the NT in Lutheran order (Phlm, Peter, John, Hebrews, James, Jude, Rev) - or Luther bibles showing the NT in the "usual" order for other users. 

    Have joy in the Lord! Smile

    I'm new to Logos, but I would have thought this was already an option Logos provides. I realize that Logos targets the pastoral market more than the academic, but this seems pretty basic to me.
