Layman Logos Max (Gold Library) user here trying to understand good/better/best resources to bolster my Textual History section of the new Insight's tool.

For Old Testament, my Textual History currently shows the following available resources:

OT-1.png
OT-2.png
OT-3.png

And my current NT resources for Textual History are:

NT-4.png
NT-5.png
NT-6.png

Thank you in advance for your suggestions!

    An affordable resource that covers the main textual variants for the whole Bible is: https://www.logos.com/product/45461/lexham-textual-notes-on-the-bible?queryId=2ed8c984be9c5941e400027eb3d6843e

    The standard New Testament resource for explaining textual variants is Metzger. I think the closest Hebrew equivalent is BHQ but it isn't cheap and isn't really the same.

    Justin,

    I thank you for taking the time to respond. I have both the Metzger and LTNB resources you identified. I don't have the BHQ but have the BHS with apparatus. When I'm reading the OT, Textual History in the Insights panel defaults to LHB for Original Language and LXX-Swete/Septuagint for Ancient Version.

    When in the NT, Textual History defaults to SBGLNT for Original Language and Clementine Vulgate for Ancient Version.

    I'm a layman and don't even know the difference between the BHQ and BHS but would appreciate anything you can share.

    Ralph
