The Bible in Medieval Tradition and The Church's Bible
Two recently started commentary series dealing with the early and medieval history of interpretation:
The Bible in Medieval Tradition (Medieval Bible Commentary)
- Levy, Ian. The Letter to the Galatians (The Bible in Medieval Tradition) Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Company, 2011. (Look at the reviews!)
- Norris, Robert A. The Song of Songs: Interpreted by Early Christian and Medieval Commentators. CB. Eerdmans, 2003.
- Wilken, Robert Louis. Isaiah: Interpreted by Early Christian and Medieval Commentators. CB. Eerdmans, 2007. (Again, read the review)
- Kovacs, Judith L. 1 Corinthians: Interpreted by Early Christian Commentators. CB. Eerdmans, 2005.

I hadn't seen the Medieval Bible Commentary before. It looks very interesting. The Church's Bible I can vouch for. [Y][Y]
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."

Turns out The Letter to the Galatians was actually published at some point, but without series name (other than on the book cover), and hidden away in the Eerdmans New Testament Commentaries Collection (4 vols.), where I never even noticed it.[:'(]
And The Letter to the Romans volume is equally hidden away in the Eerdmans Commentary Collection (13 vols.) that was just added.[:'(]
Logos: please don't hide books and mix series like this! I would have bought these. Now I won't. What a shame!

I was about to start a thread suggesting that The Letter to the Galations and The Letter to the Romans be put out singly and/or in their own Medieval Bible in Tradition Bundle, but then I did a forum search.
Releasing these volumes in their own bundle would have the added bonus of attracting many more Catholic customers, because these two volumes are scholarly translations and presentations of Catholic Bible commentaries. Such a bundle would also (effectively) strengthen Logos' weak medieval Bible commentary offerings, because, let's face it, burying such things in bundles full of contemporary commentaries really isn't helpful for those of us looking for more than the couple Verbum base package commentaries somewhere between the Church Fathers and the historical-critical method, never mind before the Counter Reformation.
Such a bundle (and/or the volumes released singly) could even form the centrepiece of a blog post for the Verbum blog, which hasn't seen a new post since last year.“The trouble is that everyone talks about reforming others and no one thinks about reforming himself.” St. Peter of Alcántara

I just want to note that Logos has just broken up the Eerdmans New Testament Commentaries Collection (4 vols.), freeing
The Letter to the Galatians by Ian Christopher Levy
although The Letter to the Romans is still in chains.
One for two is a great start! Thank you Logos!

My wish is your command!
The Bible in Medieval Tradition (2 vols.)
I will do my best to keep this collection updated as Eerdmans produces more volumes in this series, so you have one place on the store where you can go to find all of the volumes.

Thank you very much!(EDIT: Could you please also include Contents sections for Romans and future volumes like the one for Galatians?)
