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 #150 Old Testament harmonies - parallel passages - Logos Forums

While the type:harmony books discussed previously are all telling/retelling the same source event or text, these resources are more intertextual in nature. Relevant materials:

Interactive tool:

  • Jackson, Jeffrey Glen, ed. New Testament Use of the Old Testament. Bellingham, WA: Faithlife, 2015.

Besides simply opening the resource directly one resource is available via an interactive. Extracts of the type:harmony resources are available in the Parallels Bible reference guide section. The extracts apply to all type:harmony resources not just the use of the Old Testament in the New Testament discussed here. There are no options available on the guide section.

The interactive is documented internal under About. It has no reference box for access but it driven solely by the selection facets. One may sort the facet selection results in either Old Testament (source) or New Testament sequence. One may display only your chosen Bible (defaults to highest priority Bible) with or without the original language added in. For the Old Testament both the Hebrew and Greek (LXX) are shown.

    When I want more granular control to explore the use of the OT in the NT, I like to open an OT text and a NT text in a separate window and use multiple resource display to show the editions/version that I want to see. Here is what that looks like at half-screen width, leaving room for a word-processor on the other side of the screen to write up my observations.

    When dealing with the NT use of the Psalms, you often need to be able to see the versification differences between the Hebrew and Greek. A simple layout like this makes that plain, even though it isn't quite as elegant. You could use multiple resources display to add in the Targumim to the side with BHS and/or the Göttingen apparatus or Latin alongside the LXX main text.
