I am trying to use the historical context feature, but it tells me I don't have a license for that. I have the Max plan, so I don't what else I can buy.
Any help would be appreciated.

DAL, as in they are both in the Tools menu
sorry but I don't know what you mean by "historical context" - can you provide a screen shot?
If you are attempting to use Green, Joel B., and Lee Martin McDonald, eds. The World of the New Testament: Cultural, Social, and Historical Contexts. Grand Rapids, MI: Baker Academic, 2013. That is a resource, not a feature. You'll need to purchase the resource.
M. J. Smith, what I am looking for is the historical context of books of the Bible and passages. I saw a video on it in the Logos tutorials, but now I can't find it again. I don't have a screenshot, sorry
Jack Caviness, Thanks, Do you find that a good resource? I am new to Logos, and so far I am finding it much easier than the old school method of looking at the books in my library
I haven't the slightest idea of what the Logos tutorials would label this way. I would go to the Help Center (the question mark on the tool bar), enter "historical context", and see if the videos returned get you back on track. Others may have better ideas.
Thanks M. J. I will try that
Maybe the Factbook feature? It gives you some historical context of the books of the Bible. There’s also the Bible Panorama feature (I think that’s what it’s called).
DAL, Thanks, the tutorial said it was in Bible Books Explorer, which is where factbook is. I will try that
Yes! Bible Books Explorer 👍
In case this helps, what I mean by historical context is,
where and when do the passage refer to?
who were the first readers?
what was their situation?
what else was going on in the world of the author?
what else was going on in the world of the text/passage/book?
I likely acquired it through a package deal, and I have not read it.
I am glad you found it. Now I understand what you meant, why I didn't interpret it correctly, and what tools you actually needed. Maybe next time, I'll do better.
What map book shows all the New Testament places quickly and easily? Syrian Phoenicia was hard to find. As was Magadan.
I want to find all the occurrences of the word "heart" in Ecclesiastes. I would like to end up with a list of the words with the strongs number for each word. Can anyone help me achieve this? I have not purchased the subscription version of Logos if that matters.
Dear Folk, I'm trying to input in the Morph search box lemma:h:k BEFORE 1 Word@N to search for instances where k is before a noun. I'm searching for similies. When I type lemma:h:k it gives the hebrew lemma with appropriate hebrew letter, but when I try to add BEFORE 1 Word, etc. the cursor goes back before the Hebrew…
Good morning, Does someone know if we can create a collection with personal books ? Main objective is not to facilitate searching between these books, but to group some books in a collection to permit to add one book of the collection in a window, to set a synch group and to have the other books of the same collection…
I am working on something complicated, so I decided to create a temporary layout since it was getting so crunched working with only one layout open. However, when I did so, I accidentally clicked "update active." 😧 Is there any way to undo that?
