Sophocles or NA28: Which should the smart Logos owner buy?

DMB

It's a tough question. Sophocles was a real person, and wrote a greek lexicon a few years back (well, just a few):

NA28 on the other hand is NA27 plus 1.  Not a man but a committee. Did they know more than Sophocles? How can we really know?

Both are about 75% 'there' (one a CP; the other a pre-pub).

Hmmm ... Sophocles ... NA28 .... Sophocles ... NA28 ....

Why not BOTH?!

What an easy question! You can live without NA28, see here: http://bibleworks.oldinthenew.org/?p=1133 for details about the differences to NA27, click DOWNLOAD. Notice how few the differences are, You make notes about the differences in Your current GNT, NA27 or UBSGNT4 revised.

Sophocles looks useful to You if You don't mind that it's a bit old. Personally I'm very restrictive with purchases of lexicons, I'm going to buy LSJ if required; and Danker from 2009 as printed matter: Suggestions > Lexicons

(I'm not going to buy the A-company product if I manage to negotiate a "customized" price on the UBS NT Handbook (20 vols.) with Logos customer service, I'm trying 2 reps and I don't want to upgrade my base-package. And if I go with the A-company I'm buying UBS NT Handbook "used" from a user that offers it to me.):

Hmmm ... Sophocles ... NA28 .... Sophocles ... NA28 ....

Why not BOTH?!
