One of the great Messianic resources IMHO is the Dr. Michael Brown's series "Answering Jewish Objections to Jesus". We have 4 volumes already in Logos. We need to get also the newly published volume # 5: Answering Jewish Objections to Jesus: Traditional Jewish Objections to Logos. It would be great to have the series complete.
I sent the suggestion to the suggestion email also.
Bravo, Bulls eyes, right on target. Yes please, add my vote. I agree whole heartedly with you Bohuslav![Y][Y][Y]

Great. I sent this in a while ago too. I know Mike is willing to have Logos include it and I have told Logos as much last February or March.
His work is just exceptional. He's a great person and I am thankful to say, a good friend to our Movement and to me personally
BTW - http://www.logos.com/product/8050/discovering-the-mystery-of-the-unity-of-god lists what promises to be another useful book for the Messianic world. It is in the "gathering interest" phase ... but "almost there". Perhaps another pre-pub order or two will push it over the top ???
Ron, Thanks for the heads-up on this resource. One pre-pub order wasn't enough to push it over the top -- I just tried.
For anyone wanting more info than what is on the Logos product page, a detailed view of the table of contents and more endorsements are available at http://www.promisestoisrael.org/aboutus.php?id=21&PHPSESSID=5a741ae68c039beabf14030d035c8106
P.S. I'll order volume 5 of Jewish Objections as soon as it is available.
Thank you Ron for your comments about Dr. Michael Brown and also the above information. I gladly ordered the book.
Thanks to both of you for pushing this book. I found that link myself a couple of months ago, and have been meaning to write about it since. If the content lives up to the TOC, it should be really interesting!
EDIT: And, yes, although I haven't bought vols 1-4 yet (waiting for a great price...), I would, of course, want vol 5 as well when I do.
By the way, Dr. Michael Brown has written a commentary on Jeremiah in the Revised Expositor's Bible Commentary series. I am really looking forward to that series coming to Logos (hopefully) after reading that information.
If I am not mistaken, the Jeremiah Commentary is finished. BUT - I don't see it on the Zondervan web site yet so we may have to wait a while longer for a print copy.
BTW - Our Hands are Stained with Blood is another great and important work of his. This would be great in Logos format too. If I can put a link to it :

Yes. Great suggestion. [Y]

I would also like to see Volume 5.
I have looked at the Revised Expositor's Bible Commentary (my university has it) and the commentary is shorter and not as well done, and the background information is shorter and not as well done as the original Expositor's Bible Commentary....in my humble opinion.
Yes to Volume 5!
Still no Volume 5
What is the problem with making this book available? Would someone at Logos please reply?
I also got in touch with Michael Brown and he is very keen to have the book on Logos, who he is in "partnership" with and mentions regularly on his radio show.
How can Logos have an incomplete series of books? I understand that maybe Volume 5 was not published at the time when the set was originally offered, but nevertheless, this is worrying for me. I just purchased volumes 1 & 2 of a four volume set on Acts - how can I be sure that volumes 3 & 4 will be made available through Logos when they are published?

My guess:
Judging from Amazon, vol 5 has a different publisher, one I've never heard about. It's much easier and faster to add a book from a publisher Logos has a good relationship with, than to negotiate a contract with a new one. And the fewer interesting books that new publisher has, the less of a priority it will inevitably be. Plus I imagine the contract folks must have been (and still be) kept pretty busy with all the new Catholic, Orthodox, Pentecostal, etc publishers being added.
Answering Jewish Objections to Jesus, vol. 5
I just found it yesterday in Prepubs also. Great. [Y]
