    You can change the translation in Logos to whichever you prefer. The study notes stay the same, but the bolded text corresponding with the translation you choose will change. Hope that makes sense.

    Thanks.  Let make sure I understand:

    I choose ESV or NKJV or LEB verse and correspondingly the Faithlife Study Commentary will be the same for all three but will emphasize differences using bold text when the verse translation is different (from what? i.e. NKJV, ESV, etc).  So there is no FaithLife Bible (like ESV, etc) that corresponds to the FaithLife Study bible?

    Yes that is correct

    In the screenshot below I have NIV selected in the FSB and as you can see it has "shackles" in its notes on v18 which corresponds to the NIV text

    If I change the FSB to use the ESV the word changes to "fetters" which matches the ESV text

    Apart from that the notes are unchanged.

    Thanks for the help. I am now setup on the desktop because of the answers in these posts. Am wanting to compare different bible translations and corresponding commentaries on my Android Tablet.  How do 1) I change the bibles list or add a bible to my list to compare verses and 2) select the commentaries (ei. ESV, FSB, JFB, LEX; and 3) is there a way to setup a standard layout as done on the Windows Desktop?

    Thanks
