With the expansion into the Messianic Christianity packages, some of the rest of us need more history of Semitic Christianity/Messianic Christianity to put the new group in perspective, may I suggest: (yes, I know these are more polemic than academic)
Thank you. I waffled around badly on Aphrahat. But then Kindle'd it. I'm probably going to get in logical trouble, but I've never signed on to Christians taking ownership of jewish history or writings. Similar to tourists here begging to go to snake dances at Hopi, but oblivious to the beliefs.
But Aphrahat sort of begs a look. I was impressed he (apparently) didn't know greek/latin. So, what you see is what you get (syriac monastic). Be good in Logos.

I agree with MJ and would definitely support those works by Dr Eli Lizorkin-Eyzenberg being included within the Logos platform. His religious expression is Messianic Judaism and his writings reflect that perspective.
Here’s a few more of his works on Amazon and so currently available in Kindle:
