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.
I'm new to logos how do I access my dashboard, when signing in it takes me to an advertisement page ?
I have a PDF that I would like to import, but I am kind of unclear how to do that. I watched a random video and he seemed to be saying that PDFs need to be changed to docx files first and then just uploaded as a PB? Is this correct? Is there a more practical way to do this? Thanks.
Is there an official announcement for the discount about to end? Does it affect all base package owners? Can I renew my subscription now in order to lock the discount for the next two years?
At home I have two monitors connected to my MacBook Pro. When I am away from home I use a MacBook Air. When opening up Logos I have to go to the top ribbon and select which screen (i.e. monitor) I want to look at. Is there a keystroke that will allow me to switch rather than using my mouse to go up to the top ribbon and…
I am really hoping that I can find a functional solution regarding the PB. I also don't care if it is the PB specifically, I just need something functional. So in Accordance obviously they have their "User Bible". What that means is that on my end my txt file looks like: Gen. 1:1 My text Gen. 1:2 My text Gen. 1:3 My text I…
