One of the major Christological works of the 20th century. I honestly thought this was already available in Logos.
Surprised there hasn't been any response to this suggestion, so I'm going to push a little harder. Assuming Mark was produced first (not sure if that's true or even matters; I always assumed each gospel was independantly inspired by YHWH), then Mark's "take" has a sort of gatekeeper effect in terms of achieving anything like an adequate understanding of Yeishuua`, ':Elohhiym, and Scripture. I see 3 traits that I combine under the "Messianic Secret" rubric: 1) Yeishuua`'s repeated admonition to his disciples and the individuals with whom He engaged to not spread His identity as Messianic miracle-worker; 2) Mark's repeated use of the word "immediately" to describe Yeishuua`'s movement through the narrative space; 3) Mark's droning insistence that the disciples were denser than dolomite, and fundamentally incapable (at that time—and in general principle) of understanding much of anything that Yeishuua` was saying or doing, which is/was a prophesied necessity of YHWH's plan…that is still in effect today. All of this stuff is "in there" (i.e. Mark), and it has been addressed by numerous scholars since, but Wrede was the first to comprehensively address this intuitive oddity. For all their disconnection, the rabbis have acknowledged something I have found to be true with regularity over the years, which is that wherever Scripture produces "difficult", "unexpected", or counter-intuitive data, that's where the juice is. Logos needs to include this resource, because, to amend Woody Allen, "we need the juice."
Agree, should be in Logos.
I went ahead with https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005BFF3V0/
since 99 cents is hard to pass up! I have in Logos but like marking up on my Scribe.
What about having the German original in Logos/Verbum?

In Race: A Theological Account, J. Kameron Carter meditates on the multiple legacies implicated in the production of a racialized world and that still mark how we function in it and think about ourselves. These are the legacies of colonialism and empire, political theories of the state, anthropological theories of the…
There was a WordSearch module on An Interpretation of the English Bible, by BH Carroll. Seems as if it would be an easy thing to add it to Logos. It is a classic Baptist work, worthy of inclusion.
I know … I should give up on Logos ever publishing position papers even of ecumenical movements. I happen to think position papers are better sources for actually understanding the theology of the groups producing them than official doctrinal statements where the differences in use of language is less obvious. The paper…
description from Amazon Recent years have brought an unexpected revival of popular interest in angels. Books professing to draw back the curtain on the unseen angelic world filled entire bookstore shelves. Here, as if to mock the cold universe of modernity, were the stories of numerous and warm encounters with angelic…
