I don't have any recent experience with the Kindle Fire, but the basic Apple iPad is a hard tablet to beat. $319 (sometimes lower) for 32 gb iPad is a pretty good deal and will easily handle your needs for Logos and you might find some additional apps helpful as well. I have an older iPad Air (I am sure the new iPad would easily blow my older iPad Air

Hopefully Phil will prove me wrong, but I am not optimistic. Clearly it is a significant feature for anyone in the academic field (which one would think would be on FL's radar) but the fact that it has gone on this long without being dealt with is very discouraging.

Thanks

I didn't know people ever returned to using a PC after using a Mac . I would think as far as Logos is concerned the experience is pretty similar. I don't remember any big differences switching from PC to Mac.

This article might be a little useful (at least for mid 70's Lutheran perspective), but the bibliography might point you to some resources (especially Berkhoff and Ramm perhaps.) Sorry I can't be more helpful. http://www.ctsfw.net/media/pdfs/surburghistoricalgrammaticalmethod.pdf

From the New American Commentary Three things will occur when the day arrives, and all of them together indicate that the physical world as we know it will be destroyed. It is much more difficult, however, to understand the details. We will look at each in turn. First, we are told that the heavens “will disappear with a roar.” The “heavens”

This is just a sample from the NIV Application Commentary Commentators have offered a series of suggestions explaining this language. (1) The elements are the four basic elements, earth, air, fire, and water. This was a normal meaning for stoicheia . 43 (2) The elements are the heavenly bodies, the sun, moon, and stars. This meaning for stoicheia is

To give you a sample of commentaries you might want to purchase.... Here is the Baker Exegetical Commentary 3:10 “But the day of the Lord will come” ( Ἥξει δὲ ἡμέρα κυρίου , Hēxei de hēmera kyriou ), says Peter, despite its apparent delay (v. 9). “The day of the Lord”

I started a blog series on a "portable M.Div" a while back. I finished blog posts on NT, OT, and Hermeneutics and this post has motivated me to finish what I started. The idea was to provide recommended resources for pastors/missionaries/educated lay people who want to go further, but for whom seminary isn't a realistic option. It was not designed with

While BDAG is certainly the standard Greek Lexicon, it isn't the first resource I would recommend you purchase. You have to walk before you can run and crawl before you walk. In light of that, take a look at this resource https://www.logos.com/product/40499/greek-for-the-rest-of-us-2nd-ed Mounce is an accomplished Greek professor who has produced a

If that's what you really want, then you probably need to go to the Bible Analyzer website https://www.bibleanalyzer.com/download.htm

Indeed. I have been waiting to see Oden added to the list. Glad to see volume 1 finally made the cut.

Hands down the most comprehensive up to date EC/TE book out there is "Understanding Scientific Theories of Origins: Cosmology, geology, and biology in Christian Perspective. The book was developed for an integrative course taught at Wheaton College. John Walton's chiefly responsible for the theological perspectives. I am very glad to see that Logos

You are right about the 32 bit limits, but extremely off for 64 bit (which most people should have by now). In short, 64 bit can handle far more than you can probably afford. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/memory/memory-limits-for-windows-releases

I can't replicate this on the iPad app. I just tried copying from a resource (New Testament Theology by I Howard Marshall) and then pasting in Google Docs. As far as I was aware citations have never been enabled for the web app nor for the ios app. I sure hope citations are coming some day (but with an option for turning it off).

Thanks so much for providing Logos on various platforms. I love Logos 8 on the desktop, but it is also nice to be able to read books on my iPad and on my Chromebook. There is one feature I keep hoping for on the Web app and was disappointed it didn't make it into version 8 yet and that is citations. Here's hoping that it will make it into 8.? at some

While the recommendations are spot on if you really and truly want to learn the original languages. These two books will probably give you what you want as far as being able to read commentaires and understand other people's arguments better. Having said that, and I say this as a linguist who is more than aware that in any translation meaning is both

I have a great deal of personal respect for Walton. I've known him since he taught at Moody (my wife was in the class that helped him proof his first book). My daughter is now harassing him at Wheaton. My background is that of a missionary with anthropological and linguistic training. I like a lot of what Walton writes. I still don't know where I stand

If you value Walton’s Insights I think you would find it very helpful. I would see it as very much complementing the other two books. There will be overlap, but in reality whenever ANE cultural elements are referenced in the later two books, you would probably find the largest and deepest treatment in “ANE Thought and the OT.”
