Suggestion: 1 Enoch: A New Translation from Hermeneia by Nickelsburg/VanderKam

http://www.amazon.com/Enoch-Translation-Based-Hermeneia-Commentary/dp/0800636945/ref=cm_cr_pr_pb_t

I don't understand how this is not available. It is by Fortress Press, which Logos works with regularly, and it is from the Hermeneia commentaries, which Logos has, so it seems that it would be an obvious addition to Logos. It would be nice to have a newer version than Charlesworth.

From the back:

"This is the most authoritative translation of 1 Enoch, based on the best critically reconstructed text, available in a convenient, portable volume. A very useful book" (John J. Collins).

It would be nice if Logos offers it at the used price too. [:D]

Wow, I did not even notice the prices. I bought it new in 2009 for $11.87!

Just curious ... how much of this volume is not in the Herm-Enoch-1?

I notice on Amazon, this volume was advocated, due to the missing Herm-Enoch-2. But Nickelsburg did Herm-Enoch-2 in 2011 (thus more recent). So I'd assume the plus up here would be simple convenience for Enochian readers, and possibly some updates from 2001 for Herm-Enoch-1?

It is the same completed text that one could construct from the two volume commentaries, but this volume would allow for easy reading, as you pointed out, but it would also provide for making this translation the default text for linking in Logos.

But it would be like new—you would never notice that the bits had ever been accessed. [;)]
