I have this in my wish list and when I go to look at it it says

We're sorry!

That is not a product we currently sell.

You can buy the disc online at a reasonable price.

For some reason Logos has it on sale for a while, then off sale and then on again. My guess would be that it is a publisher decision, but that's only a guess.

As Dean53 said if you search online you can still find it available.

I've emailed my Logos sales rep to see if he can shed any light on the situation.

Thanks Rosie, I have no idea why it keeps coming and going from Logos' catalog, it is so weird.

I am amazed that Logos is not selling this excellent commentary set any more. It is one my very favorite commentaries. A sense of the historical understanding of the Church is extremely valuable, unless you think this is the first generation to whom God has spoken.

The publisher is Intervarsity Press, and Logos carries numerous IVP resources.

Yes but Logos had most of the Anchor Yale Bible, and if my memory serves me at all it took almost 9 months after completion for the AYRL to be released. Because the publisher wanted to change their mind and review the contract with a fine tooth comb. With Logos it is odd for it not to have been locked up solid, but all it takes is one lawyer to say x is broken and then renegotiations need to happen.

These things can take a long time to hammer out. Apparently it took one year from initial contact, with both parties interested in proceeding, before Logos was able to offer the Popular Patristics series from St. Vladimir's Seminary Press. Granted, that was a publisher they'd never done a contract with before. But still, when things are shifting constantly in the e-publishing world, with Amazon throwing its weight around, the US Government suing Apple for price-fixing, etc., it must be very complicated for both parties to be sure they are protect against any unforeseen eventualities.

You do realize that if they could protect against eventualities, they would no longer be unforseen. [^o)]

Well, if you're vague enough in the wording, then it covers eventualities that you couldn't have predicted. That's what lawyers are so good at. Being vague, and getting paid big bucks for it. Heck, I can be vague for diddly-squat. You want my legal advice? [:)]

That depends. I purposely said "diddly-squat" so it could be interpreted either way.

diddly minus squat equals zero.

Rosie Perera

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/359899#Comment_359899

diddly minus squat equals zero.

Oh, is that one of those cryptarithm puzzles?

Let's see, how to solve it? D must be zero. Y and T must be equal. L and A must be equal. Q and U must also be zero. And I and S must be equal. So there are a bunch of possible solutions, for example: D = Q = U = 0; I = S = 1; L = A = 2; Y = T = 3: 010023 - 10023 = 0

Indeed. The reason I'm still hoping to see the Dictionary of Early Christian Beliefs make it into Logos one day.

No, that was in 1611 [:D]

Jack, my friend, with that attitude, you'd... you'd.... why you'd fit right in with some in my congregation. Why waste time with Hebrew and Greek, just go back to the original KJV!! [;)]

The wife and I are currently seeking a new Church home. We have learned that the majority of IFB churches in this county are die-hard, "If the KJV was good enough for Jesus and the apostles, then it is good enough for me". I had better leave this discussion at this point [8-|]

Peace, Jack! and Every Blessing to you and your family! *smile*

In February my daughter flew my wife and I again to Grand Cayman to spend some time with her. She lives there. We left Toronto, flew straight South -- over Pittsburgh -- along the Appalachians -- over where you live -- over Cuba - and then on to George Town!

As we flew over your place, I spent some time talking -- in Jesus' Holy Name -- with our beloved and gracious God about you and your family and your past and your future.

As we flew over your place almost two weeks later, heading back home again to Toronto, I spent a brief more time in prayer for you and yours.

Life isn't easy sometimes, but we can still be joyful, as you well know. I pledge to continue to talk to the Lord about you now and again! *smile*

He is Risen! He is Risen indeed! Alleluia

“BECAUSE HE LIVES

Chorus - And because He lives I can face tomorrow

Because He lives all fear is gone

Because I know He holds the future

And life is worth the living

Just because He lives

1. God sent His Son they called Him Jesus

He came to love heal and forgive

He bled and died to buy my pardon

An empty grave is there to prove

My Savior lives

2. How sweet to hold our newborn baby

And feel the pride and joy he gives

But greater still the calm assurance

This child can face uncertain days

Because Christ lives

3. And then one day I'll cross that river

I'll fight life's final war with pain

And then as death gives way to vict'ry

I'll see the lights of glory

And I'll know He reigns

Much appreciated. Thank you. Searching for a Church home can be a discouraging task.

Well, I just broke down and bought ACCS. The price seems to be dropping like a rock and who knows if Logos will ever carry it again.

Much earlier, I had found an ACCS equivalent on the internet. I downloaded it for personal use and parsed it into my databases as a commentary. But it was a looser connect than ACCS (i.e. had early fathers that spoke/hinted at the same subject but not necessarily the exact same NT text). I notice ACCS is also the OT and even the apocrypha. That'll be good.

So, it'll be nice to have both approaches. I wonder how long the spat (?) between IVP and Logos will last; IVP seems to be feeding the market with the Libronix version quite well.
