The Jehovah's Witnesses revised their Bible translation last year. It would be great to have this in Logos for apologetics purposes.

Agreed.
I'm interested in this too.
I would;t pay a lot for it but might be good to have in my Library.

Good luck getting the Watchtower Society to agree to do so, because that's exactly how it would be applied by Logos users.
6866.5123.NWT - Jehovah Witness Bible.docxSomeone posted a Personal Book of this a while back. I don't think it is the version everyone wants, but maybe some will find this useful.
Forgot the tags.

Has the 2013 version... it is there for free. For anyone wanting to put it into Logos as a personal book I can not see how they can object so long as no changes are made and no charge is made, indeed the JW may well welcome having it available in Bible software.

The JWs publish their own copyrighted Bible software. Their EULA has language that requires users to use the software in support of Watchtower Society efforts.

As long as it is not modified I would guess they would see having it in peoples personal libraries a possible way of witnessing. I have no desire for it and do not consider it a Bible worth paying much attention to other than comparing to see how they have changed things for apologetics. But I can't say I care much one way or another, but when I saw it was free to download online I remembered this thread.

So you can make a PB for yourself, but you can't share it on the Files forum.

I see, one might be able to contact them and ask permission to do it. But I see no way to email them only a physical address as the email tab provides no address for them.
