Another tip of the day (TOTD) series for Logos/Verbum 10. They will be short and often drawn from forum posts. Feel free to ask questions and/or suggest forum posts you'd like to see included. Adding comments about the behavior on mobile and web apps would be appreciated by your fellow forumites. A search for "L/V 10+ Tip of the Day site:community.logos.com" on Google should bring the tips up as should this Reading List within the application.

This tip is inspired by the forum post: L/V 10+ Tip of the Day #149 Gospel harmonies - parallel passages - Logos Forums.

Parallel texts for the Old Testament include New Testament Use of the Old Testament, parallels with Near Eastern literature, Josephus, etc. For purposes of this post, we will consider only these resources, which are Old Testament to Old Testament parallels. The personal book parallel pericopes is the exception as it covers both the old and the new testaments.

  • Crockett, William. A Harmony of Samuel, Kings, and Chronicles: The Books of the Kings of Judah and Israel. New York; Chicago; Toronto; London; Edinburgh: Fleming H. Revell Company, 1897.
  • Geneste, Maximilian. The Parallel Histories of Judah and Israel, with Copious Explanatory Notes. Vol. 1. London: Samuel Bagster and Sons, 1843.
  • Geneste, Maximilian. The Parallel Histories of Judah and Israel, with Copious Explanatory Notes. Vol. 2. London: Samuel Bagster and Sons, 1843.
  • Jackson, Jeffrey Glen. Synopsis of the Old Testament. Bellingham, WA: Logos Bible Software, 2009.
  • Bendavid, Abba. The Twice-Told Tale: Parallels in the Bible. Edited by Mordechai Cogan. First English Edition. Jerusalem: A Carta Handbook, 2017.
  • Warren, Robert M. Parallel Pericopes, n.d.

Of these, only the Crockett tome has an interactive reader. It has similar options to the Parallel Gospel Reader allowing you to select the translation displayed, the columns shown, and the sort sequence. Unfortunately, there are problems with the navigation reference box which have been reported as bugs.
