With all the good deals what are your plans? What are you planning to pick up? what have you already picked up?
Ladd, Eschatology for the layman.
Dunn, Galatians.
Will hopefully get IH Marshall's Pauline Epistles, especially if it wins. MAYBE LaSor/Hubbard. I have most of the rest. I like a couple others that I don't have, but I just can't buy it all.
Marshall, if it wins. Treasury of David, I hope.
I doubt I can risk much more since the credit card bill came in today and she who must be obeyed raised more than a little eyebrow at the Calvin PrePubs, especially as the £-$ exchange rate is dire. Pray for me, y'all.
I'm really hoping for Treasury of David, too. But I picked up a bunch of others so far that I didn't have yet and that looked good:
Round 1:
The Dead Sea Scrolls Today - James C. Vanderkam A General View of the History of the English Bible by B. F. Westcott Glimpses of a Strange Land: Studies in Old Testament Ethics The Last Things: An Eschatology for Laymen by George Eldon LaddThe Septuagint as Christian Scripture: Its Prehistory and the Problem of Its Canon A Sourcebook for Baptist Heritage Theologians of the Baptist Tradition Calvinism by KuyperThe Christian Doctrine of God, One Being Three Persons, T.F. TorranceReading Romans: A Literary and Theological Commentary, Luke Timothy Johnson
Round 2:
The New Unger's Bible Dictionary [probably superfluous with the other Bible dictionaries I have, but it's a reference book and I have a hard time saying no to those]Martyn Lloyd-Jones (1899–1981) and 20th Century Evangelicalism Story as Torah: Reading Old Testament Narrative Ethically Commentary on the Epistle to the Romans, Charles HodgeThe Work of the Holy Spirit, KuyperThe Epistle to the Galatians, by James D. G. Dunn An Introduction to the Textual Criticism of the New Testament An Introduction to the Old Testament, Young A Short Grammar of the Greek New Testament, for Students Familiar with the Elements of Greek The Doctrine of Justification: An Outline of Its History in the Church and of Its Exposition from Scripture

Tell her you had no choice, you were predestined to buy them. [;)]
Round 1
Finally Alive by Piper
Round 2
Paul's letter to the Romans by Ben Witherington
Terry,
I got Ladd's Last things too. I have always loved that book. I also bought the major works of Anselm.
The number one thing I intend to buy is I. Howard Marshall's Pastoral Epistles in the ICC.
The number two thing I intend to buy is Spurgeon's Treasury of David.
I will probably buy John MacArthur's 1,2, 3 John commentary.
If only I had more money, I would buy much more. However, I have a bunch of stuff coming April 5 in Zondervan resources, and taxes to be paid April 15.
"Dear Lord, I need some restraint and self-discipline with money. But please, O Lord, wait until after March madness to answer this prayer. Amen!"
So what happened to Treasury of David? It was at the top, and then in this round, it's at the bottom. Who's stuffing the ballot box?
I agree - something is going on with the voting. I don't think hundreds more people suddenly got excited by House's Old Testament Theology (as good as that may be)... [^o)]
I'm depressed from the layout bug I'm experiencing (http://community.logos.com/forums/t/13473.aspx?PageIndex=1), so I've curtailed my purchases.
However, I did buy:
R1 - The Shape of Sola Scriptura
R2 - The New Unger's Bible Dictionary
There were some others that I might have bought, but they are also part of collections, and since Logos won't give me credit for things I already own when I buy a collection, I won't buy individual resources that are in collections.

I suspect hijinks! ...... Should we check for IP addresses assigned to computers at Paul House's home and office? [:P]
Actually, it does seem completely reversed from the order it was in before the round started.
Paul House's home and office?
Ok, now someone is going to have to tell me what a TV show Dr. has to do with Logos March Madness! [:O]

I am loosing confidence in Logos programmers. I was able to sign out, delete cookies from my browser, go to march madness page and revote, although I had voted before. It is possible to game the system!! This is at least the third mistake that the programmers have made with this (march madness) promotion.
Oh great. So we're going to end up with the resource that cheaters like the most making it to the final round. [^o)] It certainly won't be A Quest for Godliness. [:)]

I do notice that that is in last place.
The most expensive book has the most votes.
A Critical and Exegetical Commentary on the Pastoral Epistles, I. Howard Marshall (73%, 1,190 Votes)

It always has. The issue is with "Division 2". Its vote ranking has completely flipped in the past day.
For me, the most significant resource was Gordon Wenham's Story as Torah: Reading Old Testament Narrative Ethically (Edinburgh: T&T Clark, 2000.)
While I've only read 2 chapters so far, Wenham is one if the best Pentateuchal scholars IMHO, and this level of thinking about the ethical content of the stories is uncommonly good.
Picked up:
