I never had to make such choices in Bible Works.
For example, it looks as if I can only get the old RSV (not the new RSV) in some of the packages and not others, so that I would have to sacrifice the RSV in order to get, say, the Liddell-Scott lexicon or the Vulgate, etc., and vice versa. for each product, (English Pro, Greek Master, Triple Discoverer, etc.) they are mixed and matched in odd ways. And of course, morphological and vocabulary searches.įrom what I can see of the listed Bible texts and lexicons etc. The most important thing for me to able to do is line up, as I could in Bible Works, the Hebrew, Greek, Latin texts followed by my English favorites, running down vertically, so I can see a dozen or so versions at once by scrolling up and down, and save such sets of choices as my standard working screen. I don't need commentaries that are more devotional or homiletical in focus. I'm not averse to commentaries if they are good scholarly ones, e.g., Calvin's or those of Origen or the like. If there are Greek texts of Origen, Philo, Josephus etc. I want all the key English translations, including the old RSV (I never use the NRSV), and if possible the old 1917 JPS and the English Revised Version of the 1880s.Ĥ. I have to have the Latin Vulgate as well.ģ. for Greek and Hebrew, and the best morphological and parsing stuff for those languages.Ģ. I don't care all that much about commentaries, but I do want the best lexicons, grammars, etc. I'm a Greek and Hebrew scholar, so I need all the best Greek and Hebrew tools. I still have it, but I had been thinking of upgrading to a newer version of BW when I discovered the BW had gone out of business! So I've been looking at Accordance, but to a newcomer, there seem to be a bewildering variety of packages, and I'm wondering if I can get some overview here.ġ.
