Are there plans for the new Adventist commentary to be added to Logos? I would like to have it electronically since its easier for research.
Add my vote to the list.

Except the commentary on the book of Genesis by Dr Doukhan, are there other commentaries available already?
I've only seen Genesis.
I hope it can be released on Logos volume by volume instead of having to wait to 2020 or beyond (since it seems that the church likes it to be exclusively at the ABCs first)
I would like it as well and would not like to wait till 2020.
By the way, I wonder what is going on that nobody posts in the SDA products much anymore? I don't even hear from Martin anylonger.

SDA Starter has 225 resources and we are all reading them cover to cover and thus do not have time to post.
The first volume out in the series, Genesis by Dr. Jacques Doukhan, is really good. It is clear that he brings a lifetime of reflections on Genesis to this commentary. It might take a while before it gets into Logos, so you guys might want to buy it in print in the mean time.
I agree, it is a really good source! Why do you think it is going to take a while to have the volume in Logos?

no this is the teaser the are due in 2020
Jason, I would like to agree with you but Commentary sets are notorious for being late in coming out after (sometimes well after) the due date. Many things can happen to delay the process including (sadly) the death of the writer(s). I would take Reimar's suggestion to consider buying print versions seriously.

What a shame, I was hoping it would be available on Amazon UK but it is not. I would like to read how SDA interprete certain passages in Genesis.
Is this book available in the UK?

Ted, At my time of life I am having to go electronic for soon downsizing so share your feelings.
The USA publishing house ( http://www.adventistbookcenter.com/sda-international-bible-commentary-genesis.html ) might well refer the order to the UK publishing house however. This is the book that you want NOT the old commentary set that was only a set of 7 volumes for both OT & NT. .
Try the UK publishing house email at sales@stanboroughpress.org.uk tel 01476591700 Stanborough Press Ltd., Alma Park, Grantham, Lincs., NG31 9SL. Open Monday to Thursday. Specify the new commentary Genesis volume by Jacques B. Doukhan. They should be helpful at finding out how long it will take to get it across the pond but establish a price first especially with the fluctuating pound. Logos take note that people are interested!
I would also like to have this Bible commentary at Logos!

The New commentary being produced or the old commentary. The SDA Bible commentary already is in Logos and is for sale.

Questions:
How few Adventist families bought the old set?
How many Adventist families will buy the new set?
How many Adventist churches will buy the new set?
I would like the new one but in Logos.
I would agree with you on that one Lynden!
It's 2020 now and no SDA International Commentary set in sight. Even if we had the text ready to go for Logos it would take them quite a while to make it available to Logos users. Actually, not meaning to be too pessimistic, I don't think that they put too much priority on our denomination. They still haven't fixed all the E. G. White Books. Some are still formatted in weird ways with hanging indent on each paragraph like in Patriarchs and Prophets and many other books. They said that that is the way they got the text so they left it that way. I don't see too many books printed or formatted that way so why didn't they ask if we really wanted them that way. We (some of us) have put in typo requests to have it fixed but they don't think that it is too big of a deal to have it fixed.
