International Standard Version Old Testament prepub link DOES NOT SEEM TO WORK

Since I have the International Standard Version New Testament, I ordered the ISV Old Testament on pre pub for $9.95.

I looked at my list of pre-pubs recently and noticed that the International Standard Version (entire bible) will be shipped October 24, 2011. I never ordered it in that form. My pre-pub order for the International Standard Version Old Testament is listed as "gathering interest". !

If you go to the product listings for the pre-pub International Standard Version and look at the bottom of the overview paragraph you see a statement: "Already own the ISV: New Testament? Pre-order only the ISV: Old Testament!" If you click on this you get a message: to the effect that they don't sell this product. It seems like this will never get off pre-pub status.

Thanks for bringing this up James! I would think the OT would ship at the same time as the O&NT. Is there a way to know if this is the case since the OT option didn't get its own product page?

I have talked to LOGOS support, who had not heard of the problem. They are going to get back to me. I just checked the link again and now it gives me the message that I have already odered that pre-pub. So, it looks like they fixed that part. I'm a little reluctant to cancel the order I didn't make, in case the "gathering interest" note on my pre-pub list never changes. It's not worth saving $5 to risk missing it. [8-)]

I don't think you are going to want the OT only. The NT has been substantially updated as well with this release.

So I guess we would need to know if the NT is going to be updated gratis for those who already own it (from their purchase of a base package) or do we need to buy the NT & OT as a separate resource... meaning we would then have two versions of the NT and one version of the OT. I'll send an e-mail asking about that...

Thanks. I also sent an email to LOGOS asking about the ISV New Testament and if the new one is a revision of what I have. The photo of the cover looks the same. The information on my edition is:

LLS:1.0.180; Isvnt.logos4; 2009-10-27 T22:54:39Z

I just got the following email from LOGOS:

If you already own ISVNT, you will automatically receive any updates to ISVNT. So all you should need is ISVOT. I’ve checked your licenses and confirmed that ISVNT is already there, so I have pulled down your ISV Pre-Pub, leaving the ISVOT Pre-Pub as-is for the previously locked in price of $9.95.

I like the ISV. Look how it translates the hymn in Philippians 2:6-11:

6 In God’s own form existed he,

and shared with God equality,

deemed nothing needed grasping.

7 Instead, poured out in emptiness,

a servant’s form did he possess,

a mortal man becoming.

In human form he chose to be,

8 and lived in all humility,

death on a cross obeying.

9 Now lifted up by God to heaven,

a name above all others given,

this matchless name possessing.

10 And so, when Jesus’ name is called,

the knees of everyone should fall6

wherever they’re residing.7

11 Then every tongue in one accord,

will say that Jesus the Messiah8 is Lord,

while God the Father praising.
