Adventist Books for Logos

I did not know the manual varied from division to division. Wouldn't it be helpful to have all of them for comparison purposes including all the versions from rhe original I believe in 1932?

If you can find a market for it. It will involve scanning the old manuals, and tagging them with Ellen White's quotes. Do we have enough people interested to make it profitable.

Why? They are available for public download in pdf format at the archives: http://docs.adventistarchives.org/documents.asp?CatID=56&SortBy=2&ShowDateOrder=True

There are actually 17 of them. They would need automated tagging, but that is it. Then comparisons would be easy.

I did not see manuals that were different by division. I would be surprised if they were, since the manual is voted at the General Conference in full session and is not a division or union action.

Thanks for the link Phil. Taken from p.19 of the current manual. (online)

In 1948, recognizing that local conditions sometimes call for special actions,
the General Conference Committee voted that “each division, including
the North American Division of the world field, prepare a ‘Supplement’
to the new Church Manual not in any way modifying it but containing such
additional matter as is applicable to the conditions and circumstances prevailing
in the division; the manuscripts for these Supplements to be submitted
to the General Conference Committee for endorsement before being
printed.”—Autumn Council Actions, 1948, p. xxi from IADPA.

In the one printed by Inter-american Division, it gives additional material in its supplement from pp. 225 and onward, that relate to

Legal Organizations

Title Deeds for Church Properties
Legal Documents
Insurance
Repairs and conservatioin of buildings
Suggestions Relative to Wills
Wills, Legacies andTestiments
Laws Must be strictly Followed
Who Can Make a Wills
To Make a Change in a Will
Suggesteds Sample of a Will
In Favore of Whom Should Wills be Made
Preparation of Communion Bread
Ordination of Women as Church Elders
Criteria for the Ordination of elders and deacons who have been disfellowshiped but have returned to the Church
Use of Jewelry

Our Fundamental Beliefs is in Chapter 3, whereas the one online is in Chapter 14. See if the online version is the one that lines up with the NAD version. Helps me to see how much diversity there is in Adventism.

I had forgotten the instructions about a supplement! It is too much to expect all the supplements on Logos but I would really love to see them all.

I happy with diversity where local conditions differ (WO for example).

Edwin , Lyndon is talking about the church manual and as he explained, his Division is not taking liberties as they are permitted to do precisely that. If you check the NAD manual you will see a Notes section at the back which is the NAD addition for local circumstances. It is explained on page 18 of the manual in a similar way to those of Lydon. http://www.adventist.org/ChurchManual_2010.pdf .To be honest I was aware of this but had completely forgotten about it 8-( .
The variation between Divisions extends to various matters such as (I believe) allowing each Division to decide whether or not to officially allow women to be ordained as local Church Elders in their territory.

Greetings everybody! I appreciate all these suggestions and I am hard at work seeking to bring them into the Logos system. There are complexities involved that I am trying to navigate, but licensing agreements are in discussion. Furthermore, I'm working on a proposal for four SDA base packages, greatly assisted by all your suggestions and recommendations. The goal is to have packages ready to market yet this year. Pray for us here to represent you well, and I appreciate so much your partnership!

Reimar Vetne · July 2013

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/511208#Comment_511208

Martin, in case it is useful for you when putting together SDA packages, when I taught my theology students Logos in the Spring, I recommended the following resources for them. This was before the many AU Press pre-pubs came, so now I would have included many of them.

The prices include the academic discount that students get.

* Base package: as high as you can afford, at least with basic Hebrew and Greek tools

* Adventist resources - must have:
Andrews study bible ($35)
Ellen White with SDA bible commentary and SDA handbook of theology ($83)

* Adventist resources - when you can afford it:
Norman Gulley, Systematic Theology 3 vols ($75 on pre-pub)
Uriah Smith, Prophecies of Daniel and Revelation ($8, a lot has changed in our interpretation since this pioneer, but at this price the classic is worth getting)

* Commentaries - must have (exceptional value for money, conservative and often close to SDA interpretations):
Tyndale commentaries ($180)
Expositor's Bible Commentary ($130; $460 for the revised edition if you can afford it)

* Commentaries - over the years when you can afford it:
Socio-Rhetorical Commentary Series ($99)
Baker exegetical commentary ($700, preferably buy these sets on sale!)
Word biblical commentary ($600, includes the whole Bible)
New international commentary ($1290, probably the single best series, but expensive)
New international greek testament commentary ($400)
N. T. Wright Collection ($330, the New Testament books, best popular-level series with built in sermon-illustrations)
JPS Tanakh Commentary ($290 Jewish series, on select OT books)
NIV Application Commentary ($784, can be bought in smaller portions)
Hermeneia and Continental Commentaries ($1200, best critical series; or the Anchor Bible series)

* Bible dictionaries

Buy either the Anchor Yale Bible Dictionary ($160 in 6 volumes) OR the InterVarsity Bible Dictionaries ($103 IVP Reference Collection, $70 Pentateuch and historical books, $70 prophets and poetic books = total $250)
The Anchor is historical-critical while the InterVarsity is more conservative, however for a Bible dictionary that does not matter too much. Anchor makes up for it in comprehensiveness.

* Greek/Hebrew lexicons
Buy as big base package as you can afford. The BDAG/HALOT Bundle ($250) is part of 'Portfolio' package which few pastors can afford, so you might consider buying the BDAG/HALOT bundle by itself later when you can afford it.
Liddell and Scott Greek ($120) and Greek-English Lexicon of the Septuagint ($38) are part of the 'Biblical Languages' base package and above, so you might already have that.

* Introductions - when you can afford it:

If you have a good commentary set you will have good introductions to each book of the Bible. But when you can afford it, these are great resources:
Zondervan Old and New Testament Introductions ($270), or just the following two books: Introduction to the Old Testament by Tremper Longman ($35) and Introduction to the New Testament by Moo and Carson ($32)

Zondervan Biblical Theology Collection ($120)

----

Martin, let me also add that if you are able to negotiate individual books into different SDA packages, I consider the following books written by Adventists as useful for most of our pastors:

Laurence Turner (OT professor at Newbold College, England), Announcements of Plot in Genesis, Sheffield Academic Press (now T&T Clark). It is his doctoral dissertation written at Sheffield University, and it completely changed the way I read the Abraham story in Genesis.

Roy Gane (OT professor at Andrews), The NIV Application Commentary on Leviticus and Numbers, Zondervan. Gane is considered a leading authority on Leviticus also outside our denomination, and this commentary is very useful for all sanctuary-interested readers.

Roy Gane, Cult and Character, Eisenbrauns. His revised dissertation on the sanctuary written under Milgrom (a Jewish scholar who was considered THE leading expert on the Israelite sanctuary and the book of Leviticus when he died in 2010). A bit technical for the average pastor but should be included in an "SDA top-package". Gane's self-published Altar Call deserves to be in Logos (just contact him!) and is a must-read for all SDA pastors and lay members interested in the sanctuary.

Gerhard Hasel (late professor at Andrews), New Testament Theology and Old Testament Theology, Eerdmans. Both books are a bit dated by now (esp. the one on NT), but no better books on the methodology and history of biblical theology have been written by an Adventist since then. They are SDA 'classics' that many want to have.

Larry Richards (emeritus professor at Andrews), Read Greek in 30 days or less, self-published. Best introduction (and refresher) textbook on biblical Greek.

Reimar Vetne · July 2013

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/511281#Comment_511281

Lynden, Roy Gane is arguably the Adventist biblical scholar most respected outside our circles. At scholarly meetings on the Pentateuch one repeatedly hears "Milgrom and Gane" cited as the leading authorities on the sanctuary.

Many of our pastors don't know the story behind Gane's scholarship. Gane himself or his OT students should probably write the following instead of me (my specialty is the New Testament), but let me give the short version. When Gane did his doctoral work at Berkely in California under Milgrom, Gane was initially led to an understanding about the Day of Atonement that is quite different from SDA orthodoxy. Milgrom's view was that every day when an israelite sinned, the sanctuary became defiled (that very moment when the sin took place). Then when sacrifices were offered in the sanctuary, the sin was atonened for and the sanctuary was cleansed. What then was the purpose of the Day of Atonement, if the sanctuary was cleansed with each daily sacrifice? The SDA position, in contrast to Milgrom, was that the sanctuary was not defiled when an isrealite sinned but rather was transferred to the sanctuary when a sacrifice was offered. Sins then gathered up in the sanctuary during the year, and it was only on the annual Day of Atonement that all the sins from the year was cleansed from the sanctuary.

Being a self-described "hard-core exegete", Gane went where his research led him - which was toward's his advisor's interpretation. After a while however he saw the weakness of this aspect of Milgrom's understanding and became convinced that the traditional Adventist view of the function of the Day of Atonement was basically sound. In many areas Gane agrees with Milgrom, but Gane ended up with a different view about this aspect of the sanctuary service. The book Cult and Character deals with these issues, and is the first and only major evaluation of Milgrom's work on the sanctuary.

Since we are talking about SDA works in Logos: Another Adventist book on the sanctuary, Exploring the Heavenly Sanctuary by Marc Rasell, seems unfortunately to be unaware of the writings of Roy Gane. I did my undergraduate in theology at Newbold College at the same time as Marc Rasell in the early 90s, and this book is a nice popular-level little book about the sanctuary. Maybe in the future Rasell could update the book and the references in it to include the seminal work done by Roy Gane.

Good idea, Lynden. This was a fun exercise! I have a lot of academic journals in Logos, giving me these results for a broad search in all my Logos resources:

Roy Gane 236 results in 61 articles in 28 resources.

Jacques Doukhan 76 results in 58 articles in 31 resources.

Richard Davidson 16 results in 15 articles in 14 resources (I did not count the many R. Davidson results, since some of these refer to someone else)

Øystein Labianca (archaeologist at Andrews) 118 results in 78 articles in 32 resources

For our NT teachers:

Jon Paulien 223 results in 143 articles in 46 resources

Tom (Thomas) Shepherd 47 results in 38 articles in 30 resources (a few of these however refer to the 17th century Puritan with the same name)

But the top of the list belongs to:

Gerhard Hasel 1818 results in 406 articles in 221 resources. That is some legacy!

Reimar, are you sure that you are not getting false positives? Sometimes Logos will report a document which displays the first name and not the last, or vice versa. Even a statement where the word gane is found, will be reported. I have found it better to use author instead, but I get no hits on his name.

Some of the hits have him writing long before he was born.

Well, it is possible there are some false positives in there. But I checked quite a few of the 236 results in 28 resources, and I only found references to the true Roy Gane. Mostly about his NIV Application commentary on Leviticus and Numbers, his Cult and Character, some AUSS articles, SBL papers, etc.

Phil is correct--the church manuals are available online; most of them are in the public domain. I requested them this week. Then starts the process of tagging after sufficient funds are raised in PrePub. It's a process that takes some time due to the immense number of documents that Logos is incorporating into its system.

I grep up in a home that subscribed to Liberty magazine, so I am happy to see it included in Logos. However, it does seem to be that Logos is prioritizing the works we have suggested.

Here is the sytax to create a collection for all Adventist Resources.

Author:(“Anderson, Bruce”, “Andrews University”, “Brand, Leonard”, “Davidson, Richard M.”, "Gane, Roy E.", “Dederen, Raoul”, “Doukhan, Jacques B.”, “Fayard, Carlos”, “Gane, Roy”, “Gugliotto, Lee J.”, “Gulley, Norman R.”, “Harding IV, George T.”, “Hasel, Gerhard”, “Hernandez, Barbara Couden”, “Horn, Siegfried H.”, “Knight, George R.”, “LaRondelle, Hans K.”, “Miller, Nicholas M.”, “Neufeld, Don F.”, “Nichol, Francis D.”, “Rasell, Marc”, “Rice, Richard”, “Richards, W. Larry”, “Smith, Uriah”, “Stefanovic, Ranko”, “Swanson, H. Peter”, “White, Ellen G.”) OR Publisher:(“Andrews University Press”, “Review and Herald”, “Seventh-day Adventist”) OR Subject:(“ellen white writings”) OR MyTag:(“sdaencyc”, “sdaatlas”)

The last two are for the Sda Encyclopedia and Atlas respectively. You have to create custom tags or Logos does not recognize them.

These do not include those resources not yet released.

Christ The End of Law: Romans 10:4 in Pauline Perspective by Roberto Badenas:

However, I have not seen anyone suggest archives of old Church manual editions, Liberty magazine archives, or Regional Conference history documents. I grep up in a home that subscribed to Liberty magazine, so I am happy to see it included in Logos. However, it does seem to be that Logos is prioritizing the works we have suggested. I personally would be prioritized ANY of the works on the forum generated list above much higher than the current CP projects.

Good point there...

I can understand re: CPs. Since those are out of copyright, it's easier to get those through. (The old Church Manuals, I think it will be a long time for them to reach 100%; not sure most people want old church manuals. I could understand the first one and then maybe a couple of key one throughout history and more importantly the current manual.)

But even the Pre-Pubs, many of the resources have not been requested. Some of the bundles have had 1 resource requested but usually the full bundle of resources has not been requested.

Even so, it's great to see SDA resources coming forth [:)]

We are working in development for all these resources. I appreciate so much your enthusiasm, David. Here are the copyright rules that exist in the US:

1) Anything before 1923 is public domain and available to anyone--the content itself but NOT the PDF images that someone recently developed at their own expense.

2) Anything between 1923 and 1963 that has not had a copyright secured or renewed is also in the public domain. Here is a link to the Stanford University "Copyright Renewal Database":

http://collections.stanford.edu/copyrightrenewals/bin/page?forward=home

Google also maintains such a list. Keep in mind that these lists are not official.

3) Resources published after 1963 are copyrighted; often publishers will return the copyright to the author after a book goes out of print (not always). In such cases I work directly with the author; otherwise I must negotiate a licensing agreement with the publisher.

Logos has win-win relationships with 150 publishers, including Andrews University Press and other Adventist entities as well. I am actively engaged in discussions with a number of SDA publishers--conversations continually going on. Please pray for us with that.

Thank you so much for collaborating with me, all of you on this forum!

Thanks Jonathan for pointing this out. It does not seem to be on sale as yet. I have started a new thread to make sure that it gets noticed.
