PB-Denver Seminary Annotated Bibliographies/Recommendations

edited November 20 in English Forum

 These are the files for the Denver Seminary Annotated Bibliographies/Recommendations.  Links are either to the book in Logos, or in the case of a book in Pre-publication, it will link to the cheapest way to order that book on Pre-pub.  Books without links are not available in Logos now or on Pre-pub.

I will keep this thread updated as new versions are released, so make sure to go to the last posts each time for newer versions.  Version numbers will be as follows:

[OT (or NT)][Year of Release].[Links updated with new Logos releases].[Minor formatting changes or corrections]. 

The first ones are OT2012.0.0 and NT2012.0.0

I did two separate files in anticipation of the lists being updated at different times.

Please post any needed corrections or inconsistencies, and I will update them as they come in with new versions.

Thanks to all of you who supplied information!

 3426.NT2012_0_0.docx

6404.OT2012_0_0.docx

    Thanks a lot!

    Regarding the Witherington resource you hinted at in the other thread: You're looking for logosres:sorhet71php (Socio-Rhetoric Commentary Philippians)? I edited the Word hyperlink reference in my doc before compiling - works perfectly. 

    Do you happen to have a nice picture of Denver seminary for the PB?

    Thanks again for this work!

    Mick

    Have joy in the Lord! Smile

    Yes, I have already added the BW3 volume and was planning on adding the two Ridderbos volumes, but then they have changed the release date.  I will post the newest versions in the next couple of days.  As for the pictures, I did an image search for "Denver Seminary" and found two Denver Seminary logos;  one is dark and one is white, so I thought that they would be good for OT and NT. 

     Thanks Lynden!

    That is strange.  I didn't have any errors.  I will check again when I get home.  Look through it if you have a chance and see if it seems ok.

    Joseph, those are not errors, but warnings which do not affect operation of the resource. They are mostly—if not totally—meaningless anyway.

    I can confirm what Jack says, it functions fully so they must be meaningless.

  • Rosie Perera

    All of those warnings are harmless.

    Joseph, there's a page on the wiki about what some of the PB compiler warnings mean and how to get rid of them (if you care to, but you can ignore them): http://wiki.logos.com/PB_%E2%80%93_Warnings_$26_Errors

    In particular, "[Warning] Failed to interpret width value: 0pt" is caused by how Word does tables, and there's a workaround.

    [Warning] Unable to apply topics to article ‘A_UNKNOWN_3’. Article Length is zero. and [Warning] Article ‘A_UNKNOWN_3’ has only 0 characters. come from blank heading paragraphs. Here's the fix for that.

  • Joseph Turner
    Joseph Turner Member Posts: 2,853 ✭✭✭

    Thanks everyone!

    Rosie, thanks for the links.  I didn't even pay attention to the warnings when I built the books.

    In light of some other threads concerning permissions for publication, I wanted to make clear that I have permission to post these files.  Dr. Hess simply asked that if I publish them here, I agree to continue to update the information when the seminary releases new versions.  I make sure and submit all changes made to him, and I always send him the link to this thread.

    These new file versions should not create warnings.  The only thing that has changed is that the empty heading fields have been taken away and the table in the OT version has been set so that it will not create warnings.

    Awesome, thanks guys!

    Also, one cool thing that I noticed yesterday.  I went through and highlighted all of the books that I owned, and then just to test it, I deleted the file used and changed to the earlier version from 2012.  I was pleasantly surprised that it still hightlighted the information that I had in the other file.  These are the first PBs that I have ever really messed with, so I am still learning.

    The 2013 versions are out:

    I made the NT Bibliography into a Reading List for those who prefer the lock/checkbox style to easily see what they own - it should automatically show as most recent Reading List on your L4/5 homepage - otherwise it can be found here: http://topics.logos.com/Denver_Seminary_NT_Exegesis_Bibliography 

    It doesn't use the pipe-symbol syntax since I tried to stay as near as possible at the Word Docx

    Have joy in the Lord! Smile

    Joseph,

    I just noticed that the following resource in the NT section (2 Peter & Jude) was not linked to any Logos resource:

          Harvey, Robert and Philip H. Towner.  2 Peter & Jude  (NTC).  Downers Grove: IVP, 2009.

    If you do not already have the Logos URL here it is:

          logosres:ivnt2pejud;ref=Page.p_3

    And I am using the most recent version of the your created PBB version NT2013_0_1

    Thanks for all the work

    - Jeremy

    It wasn't available when Joseph set up the list and just recently came out of PrePub

    If you do not already have the Logos URL here it is:

          logosres:ivnt2pejud;ref=Page.p_3

    Thanks a lot - people can now reflect this in their PB and I have updated the Reading List accordingly

    Joseph Turner Member Posts: 2,853 ✭✭✭

    Thanks for spotting that.  I will include it in the next version, which I plan to get out soon.  Most of the changes will be corrections, but there have been a few changes in status of books.  I have a list of all of the Pre-Pubs/not available books that I go through for changes, which takes a while.  When I get all the way through I will update the lists.

    Thanks!

    Thanks for the great PBs, and thanks for putting the changes in your post as well, it makes it much easier to check out what's new - I like to see if there are any books I have missed that I may want that are recommended. I am sure others do that too.

    This list indicates there should be a lot of interest in Zondervan Biblical Languages Collection!

  • Joseph Turner
    Joseph Turner Member Posts: 2,853 ✭✭✭

    Thanks Don, I enjoy doing it.  The only thing that I don't like about it is that I end up purchasing a lot of books every time I go through the lists!  I am also very excited about the biblical languages collection.
