[quote user="Puddin’"] Just bumping this thread hoping for a response to my question above. I am always on the lookout for more exegetical resources, but, I am beginning to wonder if I am just wasting money at this point. Any advice would be much appreciated. [/quote] Well, as it has been said before, reading grammars will make you good/skilled

[quote user="Lee"] Thanks for the news, I was THIS CLOSE to getting a physical copy! [/quote] Phew! Lee, you just dodged a bullet there! I've heard that the quality of the physical copies is terrible, including the printing and the binding. You'd have to purchase the more expensive, two-volume Deluxe Edition just for it to hold together.

Brill Dictionary of Ancient Greek is now available for pre-order. Mike Aubrey drew my attention to this on the Nerdy Language Majors Facebook-group. https://www.logos.com/product/168884/the-brill-dictionary-of-ancient-greek

[quote user="Puddin’"] [quote user="Adam Olean"] [quote user="Adam Olean"] Hi, Landon. I would seriously consider Biblical Language Center's Live Video Classes . You won't regret it. There's a special discount for a husband and wife (or any other two from the same household) taking classes together. You can also get a discount from former students

DAL, you're right on that. For both Greek and Hebrew, Spanish will also help you pronounce pure vowels without the common English glides of gradually rounding vowels. Spanish will also likely help you use little or less aspiration with some consonants. Finally, I recall that the modern languages also share similarities in their syllable timing. Linguist

[quote user="Pat Levy Andrews"] The Look Up tool retrieves the wrong word. [/quote] Pat, try swiping to the left and right to select different words.

[quote user="Ted Hans"] [quote user="Adam Olean"]This is a good suggestion. Although if you're planning to get only one new Ancient Greek-English lexicon, it might be better to save your pennies for the forthcoming Cambridge Greek Lexicon . https://www.classics.cam.ac.uk/research/projects/glp [/quote] Thanks for drawing my attention to this.

[quote user="Mark Nolette"] Thanks for the Surface Go review, Bill! You used to have an 8 inch Windows tablet with an Atom processor. How does the Go compare to that in terms of performance? I would guess that with the SSD and 8 gb of RAM, the Go should "go" better! Thanks! [/quote] The Surface 3 and the Surface Go both contain 1.6 GHz processors. One

[quote user="Veli Voipio"] Looks like it is there now! https://www.logos.com/product/166599/acts-an-exegetical-commentary [/quote] It looks like the price might have actually increased. It certainly has on individual volumes, anyway. I'll stick with 3 out of 4 volumes for now. I've made fewer and fewer purchases from Baker Academic in past years. In

The Canvas tool appears to have problems displaying Hebrew text (e.g., from Lexham Hebrew Bible ). The spelling of word units (including affixes and clitics) goes from right to left, but the words are arranged from left to right (i.e., in phrases, clauses, sentences). Changing the text-direction doesn't seem to make a difference. Are there any plans

[quote user="Kyle G. Anderson"] Yup. It's being fixed right now. I even answered a question about it today. I imagine the update will be available within a week. [/quote] I'm glad to hear this. I'm thrilled to finally have this volume in Logos! Thank you for addressing these problems so quickly.

[quote user="Ben Amundgaard (Faithlife)"] [quote user="Mark Smith"] It would be good to hear from Kyle Anderson or someone else familiar with the issue at Faithlife. At this point I wonder if those who have it shouldn't return it for a refund, or if FL will do that for all of us automatically? [/quote] The salesperson was correct, we pulled it at the

[quote user="David Knoll"] Look on the bright side: The book as it is could serve as an excellent exercise for textual criticism students. "Find all the variants between Tov's Fortress edition and his Logos edition and categorise them according to their origin" [/quote] The thought had crossed my mind ... Now Faithlife will have to maintain two editions

[quote user="Kyle G. Anderson"] I forgot to mention two things: My sincere apologies. I'm disappointed in the output of this and am looking into how the breakdown occurred. Adjusting font size within a Hebrew word: unfortunately this isn't something we currently support in Hebrew right now. We run into a similar problem in grammars when the print might

[quote user="Kyle G. Anderson"] Thank you for the report. We'll look into this immediately. [/quote] Thanks, Kyle. I greatly appreciate it!

[quote user="David Knoll"] The amount of typos is unbelievable. I reported about 10 and then I stopped. ד and ר interchange in almost every other word. [/quote] Thanks, David. It doesn't help Faithlife's argument for the superior quality of Logos Editions (not to mention some of their databases that need a lot of work). I covered the interchanges of

I'm grateful to finally have Textual Criticism of the Hebrew Bible in Logos. I imagine that it's been a challenge to format properly. That said, I'm already finding many typos and other formatting omissions/errors. For example, how many typos can you find involving the interchange of ט/ש in the paragraph with the heading b. 4QJerd: Jer 43:2–10
