Cross TV Suggested Comentaries

I HAVE WATCHED A RELIABLE AND EXCELLENT DVD SERIES FROM CROSS TV ON HANDLING THE WORD OF GOD CORRECTLY. THE SHOW HAS BEEN AROUND FOR YEARS AND IT RECOMMENDS TWENTY TRUSTWORTHY RELIABLE COMMENTARIES AND I WOULD LIKE TO BUY THEM BUT JUST ONE COSTS FIVE HUNDRED IN HARDCOVER FORM I AM WRITING THIS SO THAT LOGOS BIBLE SOFTWARE CAN COME OUT WITH A CROSS TV COLLECTION OF COMMENTARIES

1 ALBERT BARNES NOTES ON THE OT AND NT

2 NT COMMENTARY BY WILLIAM HENDRIKSON AND SIMON KISTEMAKER

3 AW PINK COLLECTION EXODUS JOSHUA JOHN HEBREWS

4 CALVIN'S COMMENTARIES

5 JAMISON FAUCETT BROWN BIBLE COMMENTARY

THERE ARE MORE BUT I MIGHT RUN OUT OF SPACE AND I AM ASKING PEOPLE TO CALL LOGOS AND REQUEST THESE CROSS TV COMMENTARIES

Just because they are expensive does not imply that you can get them cheaper from Logos. For an example, you list Albert Barns, and Logos already sells his notes/commentary: http://www.logos.com/product/2132/barnes-notes-on-the-old-and-new-testaments It will cost you $120 to have it in L4, but you can get it for free using other software programs.

Note: these commentaries are not "Cross TV" commentaries (Cross TV did not produce these commentaries). These are commentaries that the commentator on Cross TV recommended.

John,

welcome to the Logos user forums! While I never heard of CrossTV, I'm glad you like to study God's Word and found Logos a useful tool for doing so.

The Logos forum has a separate subsection for suggestions, which is monitored by Logos' product managers. Before posting there, it may help to look at what is already available in Logos, e.g.

Barnes Notes (individual works and as a collection)
Hendriksen & Kistemaker (note: you'll often find this commentary very economically priced on CD-ROM from third party sellers)
works from A.W. Pink
Calvin's Commentaries
EDIT: and Jamieson, Fausset, Brown as well

You may note that most of these commenatries are no longer under copyright, thus you may easily find some of them on the web.

Hope this helps a bit,

Mick

PS: there's no need to write in all-caps - actually it makes your posting less legible and (according to the usances in internet communication) may lead others to assume you are screaming at them. This forum provides a feature to edit your post (click the button "more" at the top right-hand of your post) if you wish to do so.

John,

I have seen a number of Kielar's video presentations and agree they are very good. I have 1-4 of the commentaries you listed above in Logos. However, I suggest that you consult Kielar's advanced reading list, http://www.crosstv.com/reading_advance.htm, where he recommends many additional commentaries that are accessible to most students of scripture.

If you want to begin by selecting from Kielar's list, for in-depth coverage of the new testament see http://www.logos.com/product/4233/bakers-new-testament-commentary . For less depth, but coverage of the entire bible see http://www.logos.com/product/8593/tyndale-commentaries These commentaries are fairly up to date, address current questions about the text, and I would recommend buying them before older works (> 75 years).

P.S. How about leaving the caps lock off.
