Just wondering: after the min cross grade Will I be able to morphologically  search the reverse interlinear of Swete LXX but won't be able to see the full text morphologically tagged? I currently (Logos 4) have an untagged Swete.

    L4 Swete is morphologically tagged now, isn't it? The new interlinear Swete looks like any other Greek interlinear. It's not a reverse interlinear, but a normal one (Greek text on the top line). There's also going to be a Hebrew Swete Reverse interlinear, which will have Greek on the top line and Hebrew below - that's included in the price, but not available yet.

    But I'm not sure I've fully understood your question.

    Thanks Mark,

     

    In L4 Swete is untagged. But I figured out what was wrong. There is this question mark near Swete that means that I'll get the tagging now but supposedly won't pay the full price for it..

    In L4 Swete is untagged.

    Interesting. My copy of 'old' Swete has morphological tagging now, but that can't be related to my L5 purchase as it still has the old id. Perhaps you have to be running L5 to get the update - or do you have updates pending?

    No updates that I know of. It is interesting that the crossgrade page mentions only :

    • Lexham Hebrew Septuagint Reverse interlinear: H.B. Swete Edition**
    • Lexham Hebrew Septuagint Reverse interlinear: H.B. Swete Edition, , Alternate Texts**

    and not the running text...

    What's the difference between the different versions of the Septuagint? I've been using Ralphs and Brenton until now; should I change? (I've already replaced Brenton with Lexham English Septuagint, but don't know what the difference is between the Greek resources.)

    Rahlfs is an eclectic text which is based on Vaticanus (manuscript B) but incorporates many changes according to the scholarly opinion of Alfred Rahlfs. Swete is basically the same as Vaticanus (only clear omissions and corruptions are taken from other manuscripts).

     

    Rahlfs is the best complete edition of the LXX and the de facto standard. Göttingen is a better edition but it is incomplete.

     

    Lexham is a translation of Swete so there might be discrepancies between the Greek text of Rahlfs and Lexham English Septuagint. Brenton's Greek text is very close if not similar to Swete.
