Can the ebook be plugged into Logos?
On Christianbook.com they are selling this commentary and I want to pick up the ebook only if I can add to Logos but am unsure.
The short answer is a qualified "yes".
The more complete answer is that there are plenty of programs that will convert it from nearly any eBook format to .DOCX (Calibre, for instance), and from there you'd create a Personal Book in Logos. You may choose to invest the time to manually add Logos formatting to it so that it functions as a versified commentary (when i say "the time to manually add", think in terms of a very large investment in time and effort), however it will work straight out of the conversion box without manual intervention.... just don't expect it to function like a regular Logos resource unless you invest a few gallons of sweat equity.
Or just buy the logos compliant version in Vyrso:

Thank you. Why didn't I think to look there!
You're not alone. cf. http://community.logos.com/forums/t/81315.aspx
Because it's a commentary and you'd expect it to show up in logos.com. But since Logos and Moody don't have a contract right now, I really appreciate that we could get it via Vyrso.
The advantage of doing it this way is that if Logos and Moody ever come to an agreement again, you can be pretty confident that this is one of the resources they'd convert to a full-service commentary in Logos at some point.
Because it's a commentary . . .
While it is a commentary it's Logos "type" is monograph. I noticed that it will also not participate in "linking"; i.e., it won't automatically scroll with my Bible resources.
I built a separate collection of commentaries where I could add it so that I could include it on appropriate searches.
