Thank You Faithlife for Denominational upgrade bundles and Fundamentals gift opportunity!!

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/1023065#Comment_1023065

Agree, very kind gift from logos giving fundamentals.

FL people a question:

If I want to give an L8 package to an appreciated person, do I have to use my credit card on his / her account, or what is the procedure?

I would imagine that working from the recipient of the gift's account is the best way since there is a 100 usd discount for new customers, but I am not sure if using my card on another's account creates a problem.

Dave Hooton

You can instruct Faithlife (by email) to use the credit card on your account to purchase resources for another account. Get them to confirm that the new customer discount will be applied.

Speaking of Denominational Upgrade Bundles, I was curious which Starter Bundles do you think have the best additional resources I got the Silver Standard Package already. I am just looking to see which starter packages I should keep an eye on to collect some valuable resources. My goal is to try to get several different perspectives and understandings of the text.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/1023218#Comment_1023218

Hi Steven:

Not an expert, but I would think you need to be more specific:

Are you interested in Spiritual formation, discipleship, missions, particular ministries, worship, fellowship / outreach, spiritual development, spiritual warfare, comparative theology, biblical theology, textual criticism, preaching, apologetics, and so on...?

I would guess certain denominations would be better at certain things, so depending on your interests you can find a corresponding package.

To understand the text, you need not original languages tools alone, but also you need to start from something more basic: epistemology and ontology.

Epistemology: what is truth and how do we get to it (more or less), also Ontology: the nature of reality (ultimate).

To see how this affects your understanding of the text:

If you think we can get to truth by grammatical historical method in synchronic study, without taking the whole counsel of God into consideration in a diachronic topical and intertextual way, you may be missing on the Holy Spirit contextual ability to transcend human context, time, language, and the like to transmit key information.

If you think that the fallen region of God's Kingdom where we live is the ultimate reality, and that the supernatural reality in which God lives and operates does not exist, then you will run contrary to the basic worldview of the whole Bible.

You may want to try reading the following to get a basic overview of where most traditions are coming from and take it from there:

hope this helps.

Hamilton, you are not to state your particular beliefs as if they are the only theological position that could possibly be represented on the forums. You had been being reasonably good about staying within the boundaries. Remember that there are boundaries as this is not the place to discuss theology no matter how much some may wish it were.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/1023218#Comment_1023218

I was curious which Starter Bundles do you think have the best additional resources

To some extent, it depends upon your background. If you have been exposed to a broad range of theology, you may be able to read and understand any of the packages; if you have very limited exposure, it may be better to start with things closer to your own beliefs.

If I assume your background based on statistical possibility I would make the following suggestion as to sequence:

Baptist or Methodist/Wesleyan or Reformed - whichever you consider the closest to your own position which is not your own position; this gives you a solid start for reading other views with understanding
Orthodox - yes, I mean Orthodox, because of their remaining firmly grounded in the church fathers and not particularly interested in systematic theology this gives you a solid background in church fathers/history in a manner that assists you in reading and evaluating any position.
Lutheran or Anglican because they both represent very major streams of the Protestant/Reformation tradition in a moderate manner e.g. their self-definition as a middle way
Jewish packages - not a denomination base package but there are packages in a variety of sizes. This will significantly restructure much of what you thought you learned from the Orthodox/Lutheran/Anglican packages. Your understanding should be much more integrated after this.
Catholic package ... yes, I deliberately put other packages before this because assuming the statistical probably, you are likely very misinformed rather than simply ignorant of the Catholic positions. Orthodox/Lutheran/Anglican/Jewish packages should have disabused you of much of the misinformation and given you the background to actual read what is written not what you expect to read.
The Anabaptists and the Restorationists would be the next on my list if there were packages for them - because each takes a particular aspect of theology to its logical conclusion in ways that emphasize points one might otherwise miss.
Pentecostal & Charismatic is in some ways simply an emphasis on aspects included in all of the above, in some ways similar to Anabaptists and Restorationists. However, for some of us, this will fall into 1a. closest to your own position that is not your own position.
SDA, here I must apologize to those within this tradition as I have never had sufficient need to explore the theology or the packages to have ever formed an informed position ... you're on you own

I'm sure others would give very different lists but I hope I've explained the "why" of my particular list.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/1023226#Comment_1023226

M.J. Smith: This is really helpful. I am copying this list for me. I was raised in both a Baptist and Methodist church, so you nailed me there perfectly. I am leaning towards Methodist/Wesleyan Starter, and your suggestion for a Jewish Package, finally I didn't think about the church fathers being the key focus of the orthodox packages, but if that is the case I am definitely interested in those.

These are both completely opposite to my own tradition, but the resources make them still very worthwhile purchasing:

● Verbum Starter: several works by Peter Kreeft, focus on apologetics and philosophy, three volumes full of artwork, and the Verbum 360 training is a lot more comprehensive than the L8 quick guides.

Next on my purchase list:

● Orthodox Starter: many resources on and by the church fathers and the Lxx ( incl. NETS).

Yes MJ, I am aware of limitations.

Note that I am not asking him to believe, join, etc. such type of theology. I am just pointing out something I think he needs to know.

There is Explicit knowledge, tacit knowledge, and ignored knowledge.

I am trying for a person that is asking about packages, things that he may want to explore in order to arrive to truth when trying to understand the text.

Any good system of theology starts with prolegomena, what the preconceptions, previous understandings, presuppositions, assumptions are, how they should be analyzed, to then see if they hinder or facilitate truth finding.

Critical thinking requires to lay it all out for analysis, reflection and then decision.

If what I have shared does not help, just forget about it, retain what is good. God is a God of order, coherence, clarity, benevolence and transparency. Should His adopted children be also?

Kind regards.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/1023226#Comment_1023226

This is an awesome list MJ.

From the limited experience that I have:

Baptist: excellent Bible study, discipleship, outreach / missions, Community health evangelism, contextualization of the gospel, very good conceptual framework of what really happened in world history from God and mission's perspective.

Methodist / Wesleyan: excellent planning, absolute vs relative perfection, different outreach outlook, seems to me they understand that true truth so to speak comes from God and it can be found in any sphere (e.g. secular, etc).

Reformed: excellent Systematic theology, very good Biblical basis for most of their constructs, but at times they violate certain standards:

Pure scholasticism is seen as cold by some, and that is why pietism grew as counter to this.

Orthodox: haven't studied them yet. I loved MJ's reference to the Ukranian catechism. I like that most Orthodox are clear that deification / theosis does not mean that we will eventually have self-existence, as that is a non-communicable attribute of God that He will retain forever and that makes Him the only Being worthy of worship.

Lutherans: some have an unbelievable amount of insight:

Jewish: I like the Jewish encyclopedia. JPS resources are interesting. They base their religion on: Worship, study and good deeds.

Catholic: the Catholic topical index is unparalleled in my opinion, I wish there was similar in every other tradition. Moral theology, and Social teaching are great topics. Catechism has four pillars: the Faith we believe, the faith that we pray, the faith that we live, the faith that we celebrate, which is cool.

Anglicans, Restorationists: have resources but have not studied much yet.

Anabaptist: a lot into peace. What many persons are not clear is that supposedly in the Bible there is a difference between killing with malicious intent (forbidden by the Law), and collateral damage (may include manslaughter) in defending one, family, community, country, etc. Need to look more into this.

Pentecostal and Charismatic: even though I am not 100 % of either, this is always my first package in the upgrades. Spirit filled life to me is a non-negotiable of Christian living Romans 5:5.

SDA: very good structuring of Sabbath school, topics, etc. Supposedly, persons that follow their dietary advice, live longer and have less health issues.

Hope this is of help.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/1023295#Comment_1023295

I am just pointing out something I think he needs to know.

You are pointing out theology which people may or may not agree with. This is precisely what we are asked not to do - implicitly put others down by saying this is right and you should know its right. I sometime chafe at what I can't say when people state positions that I believe to be logically impossible to be correct ... but I know that would alienate the posters. Yes, we can correct someone when they misrepresent the position of a particular tradition - but only to insure the position is accurately represented ... not to defend the position as being the truth.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/1023314#Comment_1023314

Did not mean to start an issue. Anyway, I appreciated what you both said.

M.J. Smith. I decided to pick up the Orthodox package first because it had more new resources for me, and I really wanted to have a beginner collection of early church father readings.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/1023325#Comment_1023325

Did not mean to start an issue.

You didn't so don't worry ...

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/1023314#Comment_1023314

Yes MJ, but what is the intention? proselytism? of course not.

You never talk theology, but the few times you hint at some key point, it illuminates persons, without knowing you edify the Body of Christ.

The problem is not theology per se or its discussion, the problem is the arrogant attitude of some persons, that think they have absolute truth down, when any true believer knows that only God is the absolute orthodox Being in the universe.

The fruit of the Spirit is clear, most persons that do not show that fruit in the exchange of theological information, are clearly not mature in that fruit. (so right there I would not follow them).

Any person that is not willing to seriously look at the actual worldview from which he/ she is operating when studying theology is just joking around and possibly being just part of an indoctrination game by some particular group.

MJ wrote: "... people state positions that I believe to be logically impossible to be correct".

This is key MJ.

1 Human reason is a fit aid to the Holy Spirit guidance. Human reason and logic is not the ultimate measure for finding truth. Human reason guided by the Holy Spirit is a very valid means of arriving to truth.

2 Your opinion is very respectable and very credible, but you must understand that you are not God, so not binding when talking about people's salvation.

3 there is a lot of controversy in theological studies, and that is because we all come from a particular contextual situation.

The context most traditions do not talk about is the context of the Holy Spirit, (the real author of the Bible), and it just happens that He transcends any ethnicity, language, era, contextual situation, etc. That is why Jesus said that the Holy Spirit will guide you to truth, He never mentioned synchronical original language with human reason alone as the way. This is key and has to be clarified.

In the end each person has the right to choose what they decide to believe. It is a God given right. But is unethical to try to rule out other views just because they are in the minority or because they are in the fringe of the orthodoxy envelope.

If God confronts me as to my inquiry travel with the rationality He gave me, I can say I explored most, checked to see if things were so, and came to conclusions on my own as expected, and not just because I inherited a particular tradition, or because a human authority affirms that is the correct one.

Careful analysis of things of Theology is an undelegable task each one of us has to perform.

I have never said I have ultimate truth. But I get very glad when I meet persons that take theology serious and want to get to the truth. There are key topics to explore in that regard and is up to them to choose what they think is God's message.

We come from very different backgrounds. I was born in a Catholic environment. That is why I can relate to much of the good it has to offer. But being where I live exposed me to other traditions, and then I understood I needed to get serious and analyze what I believe to check it is so with respect to God's revealed truth.

Logos is a wonderful tool for that. Honesty in key prolegomena topics is of utmost importance, and transparent, well intentioned believers without an occult agenda, have to make that patent.

Kind regards.

I was curious which Starter Bundles do you think have the best additional resources I got the Silver Standard Package already

Well, it's a bit complicated to give a straight answer to this because the discounts vary depending on what you already have. This in turn influences how good a deal one may think this or that starter package to be.

What I can say is that the higher the package you already own, the better deals the tradition-based starter packages (or even higher) packages can include. YOU need to look at each package, select "new to you" to view which resources you would gain and compare to cost.

For instance, for me Bronze Reformed would be a sweet deal because for abou $50 I'd get two commentary sets (new covenant and mentor). That would be 27 commentary volumes otherwise costing around $450. I don't care about the other resources but someone else might.

So, it's definitely worthwhile to take the time to examine those low costs packages and grab deals while the discounts still reflect the launch promotion.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/1023350#Comment_1023350

This is one reason I went with the orthodox starter. I got like 80 new resources for $30.00 I don't know how long the upgrades will be on sale, but those starter packages are a great deal. I hope to get one more starter package before they go off sale.

ROUTH
To the Reader
EDITION OF THE GREEK TEXT
The present English translation of Routh (the Greek spelling of Ruth) follows the Greek edition by Alfred Rahlfs, which is generally regarded as the best available for this biblical book (Septuaginta. Id est Vetus Testamentum graece iuxta LXX interpretes, 2 vols. [Stuttgart: Württembergische Bibelanstalt, 1935]). Departures from Rahlfs' text as the basis for the English translation are rare, except where punctuation is concerned. Rahlfs' Septuagint as a whole is based principally upon three early codices, not upon all available textual evidence, but for the book of Routh Rahlfs presumably was able to draw upon his earlier work involving c. 50 manuscripts. See A. Rahlfs, Das Buch Ruth griechisch als Probe einer kritischen Handausgabe der Septuaginta (Stuttgart: Privilegierte Württembergische Bibelanstalt, 1922), which was not available to me, and Studie über den griechischen Text des Buches Ruth (MSU 3, 2; Berlin: Wiedmannsche Buchhandlung, 1922), also published in Nachrichten von der Gesellschaft der Wissenschaften zu Göttingen (Philologisch-historische Klasse, 1922) 47-164.
TRANSLATION PROFILE OF THE GREEK
The book of Routh is a fairly literal translation of the Hebrew, with the Greek text often matching the Hebrew in a word-for-word fashion. At times the translator reflects distinctions in the Hebrew that seem to be of no consequence semantically, as in the consistent representation of -אמרלand אמר אל (both meaning "said to") as εἶπεν plus dative (15x) and εἶπεν πρός (7x) respectively.
Not surprisingly, the Greek text displays a high tolerance for Hebraic modes of expression, retaining certain idioms like "uncover your ear" (4.4) and generally keeping the paratactic syntax of the Hebrew original. The latter is illustrated by the fact that ו meaning "and" (etc.) that begins most Hebrew sentences is reproduced in Greek by the word καί ("and") somewhat less than 90% of the time. Typically this is done even when the resulting Greek is awkward or unappealing stylistically.
Evidently the merits of this kind of close translation were seen to outweigh its disadvantages. By virtue of its Hebraisms, the translation had the power to evoke the original. Non-Jewish readers, no doubt, would have found it strangely worded or even obscure in places, but for the reader who shared the translator's social setting, the Hebraisms in Routh must have been valued as highly accurate renderings.
To speak of a tendency toward literal translation, however, is to tell only part of the story. In many ways the translator exhibits a degree of flexibility and freedom in the treatment of the text. Renderings as completely regular as the example of εἶπεν mentioned above are the exception rather than the rule, and the usual Greek equivalent was often rejected where clarity or other considerations came into play. An interesting example is the rendering of אנכי, "I," by ἐγώ εἰμι, "I am," a feature of Kaige texts (of which Routh is one) by which אנכי was distinguished from its synonym אני. This rendering, which is generally found in Routh (in 2.10; 3.9, 12; and twice in 4.4), is replaced by ἐγώ alone in 2.13 and 3.13, where ἐγώ εἰμι would have resulted in difficult or ungrammatical Greek.
Often, too, a single Hebrew word is represented by a variety of Greek ones. Three different Greek words, νεᾶνις,"young woman" (2.5), παῖς,"lass" (2.6), and παιδίσκη, "maidservant" (4.12), are all used to translate Hebrew נערה when it refers to Routh, and a fourth Greek word, κοράσιον, "girl, young woman" (2.8, etc.), is used when נערה refers to the female workers of Boos (Boaz). Throughout, the attentive reader will find that Routh, like any translation, is very much an interpretation.
Not infrequently we find that information drawn from the context is inserted into a verse in order to clarify its meaning. These insertions are mostly minor; in a typical if prosaic example from 1.15, in place of MT's "she said" the Greek specifies "Noemin said to Routh." A more substantive insertion occurs in 4.8, where the next-of-kin removes his sandal, as in the MT, "and gave it to him" (to Boos), an act that is implied by 4.7 but not stated in the Hebrew text. Minuses relative to the MT are less frequent. Often they seem to involve words that were seen as superfluous, as with "days of" in the Hebrew text of 1.1. Several may have been motivated by a sense of propriety, as in the omission of "tonight" in 1.12.
Of course many of the differences between the Hebrew text that we know today and the Greek translation might have been present in the Vorlage (the translator's Hebrew text) rather than originating in the translation. Such was evidently the case with the name of Noemin's husband, which is Elimelech in our present-day Hebrew text but is Abimelech in the Greek text (six times in the book). The difference between the two names is only one letter in the vowelless ancient Hebrew script.
THE NETS TRANSLATION OF ROUTH
NETS Routh attempts to capture something of the character of the Greek translation. Like the Greek translation, the present English one is relatively literal. In attempting to reflect the Greek closely, it is a more literal rendering of the Greek than the NRSV is of the Hebrew. (For the role of the NRSV as the base text for NETS, see "TO THE READER OF NETS.") In fact, since the Greek often renders the Hebrew literally, and NETS Routh attempts to render the Greek literally, NETS frequently represents the Hebrew phraseology more closely than the NRSV does.
It follows that divergences of NETS Routh from NRSV Ruth in many cases do not indicate divergences of the Greek text from the Hebrew Masoretic Text, but rather stem from the different translation philosophies of NETS and the NRSV. Wherever possible, however, the wording of the NRSV has been retained so that it can be compared profitably with NETS. A somewhat free translation within NETS, Routh may, therefore, be the result of a desire to preserve the NRSV where possible, or it may reflect the necessity for grammatical English.
In many cases the NRSV does not translate the conjunction "and" into English, especially when it begins a sentence, or the NRSV renders it "now," "then," "so," or the like. In this matter NETS Routh is more conservative, generally translating "and." But where both Hebrew and Greek have initial "and," and the NRSV does not translate it, NETS Routh also ignores it, so as not to imply that the Hebrew and Greek differ. When the Greek uses the alternative conjunction δέ, NETS tries to use a nuanced English equivalent instead of "and." In more significant matters NETS Routh tends to follow the Greek rather than retaining an NRSV translation that does not adequately represent it.
Generally the Greek words in the book of Routh are used in their ordinary meanings, but at times the linkage between a Hebrew word and its typical Greek equivalent apparently caused the Greek word (at least in "biblical Greek") to be used in a Hebraic sense. Examination of Hellenistic sources has often turned up Greek parallels to supposed Hebraisms, but a residue remains that cannot be explained as ordinary Greek. Examples in Routh include καί, "and," introducing an apodosis or conclusion, ὅτι, "that" as an asseverative (perhaps explicable as ellipsis); and ἐν, "in," marking the recipient of a thought or emotion.
That certain Hebraisms (but not others) were tolerated seems to point to the audience's familiarity with them, due either to their use in earlier parts of the Septuagint or to their penetration into Jewish liturgical or other settings. If indeed the audience understood certain words and expressions in their Hebrew senses, rather than as ordinary Greek, one might justify a freer, more idiomatic rendering of the Greek than the present one. But in the absence of evidence (as is often the case) that these Greek expressions were so understood, and in keeping with NETS policy, I have adopted a conservative approach, translating the expressions literally except where the sense was in peril or where English grammar would not permit a literal rendering.
Here and there the reader might perceive overtones of the King James Version or other exemplars of "biblical English" ("and it shall be," "look upon [favorably]," etc.). Similarly, it seems, the first audience of Routh experienced its Hebraistic constructions as the "biblical Greek" that they had come to know from oral translations. But NETS Routh avoids "biblical English" where it might obscure the meaning. Thus in 3.3 NRSV's ill-chosen "anoint"--a word restricted to ritual contexts in contemporary English--is rejected in favor of "apply oil."
