MJ. Smith:The Oxford Bible Commentary | Faithlife a useful single volume commentary not yet in Faithlife
The thing is that this used to be in Logos 2.0. I got it on CD years ago from an overstock store online - and has been my first one-volume commentary consulted quite often since.
The Gospel is not ... a "new law," on the contrary, ... a "new life." - William Julius Mann

I, too, have it, but only as a paper copy. It was recommended to me by a teacher of mine in Biblical Theology and Hermeneutics in the official Training Centre of the ELCF, a few years back. My question to him was: What is the best single volume Bible Commentary? Oxford Bible Commentary it was, according to him. It's a shame they don't sell it in Logos anymore. It ought to come back definitely. I would jump on it! (Then I could give my paper copy to a colleague of mine who doesn't use Logos).

Not listed, and not likely vote-catching would be bringing back the Japanese RI. Maybe Matthew can pull strings up there.
Oxford is indeed good, especially when you can't afford the critical commentaries.
I appreciate the posts in this thread. I had never used the concordance tool, but I find it's something I have been wishing I had....
Thanks for discussing it!

I upped my vote. Up yours!
My thanks to the various MVPs. Without them Logos would have died early. They were the only real help available.
Faithlife Corp. owes the MVPs free resources for life.
