What are your favorite journals that you read/consult regularly in Logos? I'm trying to nail down a list of theological journals I want to frequently read.
Thanks!
I'm laity, so I blush counseling a PhD. But, I find these indispensable JETS, Bib Sac and because it's free, interesting and well done Themelios.
Thanks! I love those as well!
By the way, no need to blush at counseling a PhD. Just because I have a PhD, I'm the first to admit I don't know everything and am always willing to learn more from others! If anything, my degree showed me everything I still don't know!
You're kind.
My answer is the same as Beloved. Some of the journals are very narrow in their scope by definition and do not really fall within my studies. I try and go through the new journals table of contents by Themelios is such a welcome addition each drop.
Definitely WTJ - Westminster Theological Journal - always relevant topics
And not really an academic journal, but a terrific publication - Reformed Forum's quarterly magazine
Just read them all. It will not take you long to figure out which ones are no good.
Unfortunately, most journals that are in Logos are not often cited in my field. And to get the "good ones" into Logos would be something most of us could not afford.
I love having JBL in Logos, but there are so few volumes that are actually available in Logos that a historical survey of literature won't go very far into the past. This is odd since there are many volumes in the PD. I wish they would "finish the job" and make the rest available.
The journal, Semeia, was a hot thing years ago (and dear to my heart because of my participation in its publication), but only lasted 30 years before it was transitioned to a book series.
Those are my favs in Logos.
Not really speaking to Nathan's question … I don't do 'theological'. That's like puppies pontificating to fellow puppies about their masters (and their fellow puppies).
But I do love Logos 'academic' journals … even if catch as catch can. It's a big reason I'm more into reading than searching … questions you didn't know you had. And the archaeological journals are almost timeless.
Thanks everyone for the comments! I agree JBL would be good to have updated.

I will be helping two of my friends get oriented with Logos. One of them has a Logos Premium subscription but has not yet been able to get into Logos much. The other one has no Logos experience at all but seems very interested in learning about it. He may have downloaded the free version - but I don't know that for…
What’s going on with the inability to independently search the “Galaxie Theological Journal” library? Logos will recommend journal articles when they appear in guides, but as far as I can tell there is no way to directly search the Galaxie journals themselves; e.g., BibSac. Something is clearly wrong when a search returns…
I'm not new to Logos, but I am new to syntax searching. Trying to do a simple syntax search with 1 John 2:5 as the basis. I want to see where else in the NT we have the phrase, "By this we know." Of course, I want the Greek construction, not just when the translators used those English words. I was able to successfully…
