Please bring Allen P Ross volume 3 on the Psalms to Logos. It's too good to have it incomplete! 👍 Currently only two volumes are available.
Thanks!

Yes indeed. Volume 3 was released early last year. Looking forward to buying it in Logos!
I would buy it right away. Hopefully FL can get it soon.
Let us vote for Volume 3 (I already own 1 and 2)

I put my 3 votes there!
Can anybody tell me what the prepub price was on the Alan P Ross commentaries on the psalms? I know the collection included an extra commentary not written by him but I still would like to know. It seems like kregel might not be allowing any discounts on it.

Nevermind! I took the plunge and got the set at a discount. If you ever want to get a decent discount on items contact Zack Barnett. He has turned out to be a great sales rep. You can call FL and ask for him or you can email him at zack dot barnett at faithlife dot com
Now all we need is volume 3 to hit prepub and make it out of prepub and we'll be all set! 👍👌
Good to know! Thank you DAL!!!

You're welcome! Awesome commentary! I've read the exposition on the first 10 Psalms already!
Keep voting please 👍

That's 3 votes from me
Daniel J. Phillips"> Why in the world does Logos separate text and commentary? Both, of course, are together in the hard copies. I've used Ross at length. Not great as to insight and ground-breaking; still, a wealth of information. But Logos rips the translations out of the commentary and makes them a separate item, with the commentary by itself sans translation. So you have to go back and forth between two windows, rather than up and down in the same. For the life of me, I don't see the point of this.

DAL what are you thinking about the Splitting up of the book? Is it helpful or not?
not Dal here, but I can say it's very helpful - you just align two windows next to each other (one commentary, one translation) and thence you don't need any scrolling at all.
Rokas thank you! Good idea, that's clever

Personally, I like it separate. It doesn't bother me -- less clutter on the commentary IMHO
Thanks DAL!

Dear FL, we are waiting for the good news[;)]

Honestly I don't know how many votes we need in order for Faithlife to start taking action. I know the sermon editor feature I requested (ability to add pictures that zoom in and out) only has 30 votes, but supposedly that's a feature that will be available in the future anyway. So I really don't know.
Faithlife's priorities and workings are often times real mysteries... if we look at the example of the final volume of Westminster Bible Companion now under contract I inquired about it over 2 years ago when it was first released, almost immediately it was available on Kindle.... I was told sometime in late 2015 it would be pursued but no time frame. I learned in September it was in the queue... I think it was November I was told FL had received the files and it would be coming out to prepub soon.... It made it to prepub in February shortly after my last email inquiry. I apologize to FL if my emails (about 6 a year on this issue) were a bother and I most certainly know not if there was help or hinderance or no difference from my enquires. But this leads me to believe at times getting a new book in FL is an extremely slow process unless it is made an absolute top priority (I have seen numerous PP come up and being under contract as soon as they are offered (this could be due to extreme popularity but I think more likely because they are in PP name only, they are going because FL wants them ASAP) and of course we were told of the fortress press experiment to offer 2 books when they were released in hard copy format. I am not sure how that worked for them but I suspect it is a much better process that will find FL selling more copies as I am almost positive there are scores of people who say I need BOOK X now do i wait 3 years for it to show up in FL or buy it at a bargain price in KINDLE. I am not talking in general about commentaries (although I was tempted to get WBC Corinthians in Kindle format and make a personal book out of it for Logos) but other books for certain. I find FL prePub system far less than ideal and must in my mind change, although I acknowledge that FL runs their business as they see fit and may well be right with it's model being best for them (to me as an end user I can tell you FL has lost a lot of business from me to Amazon and other Bible software because of inability to purchase what is trapped in PP).

Thank you Dan and DAL! Interesting. So let's hope FL will get a good deal with Kregel and purchase it soon
You're welcome 👍

This one is a real head-scratcher. SMH? ;-)
It's definitely been recommended before, as well as other volumes from Kregel Exegetical Library. Here are a few examples:

Hi all,
This is on our list of books to acquire. I'm not sure when we'll have it up, but it's definitely on our radar.

Thanks for giving us an update. I guess we'll just have to wait now. No need to bump this thread anymore 👍
