A Favorite Post

Posted in Ruminations, tagged , on July 30, 2008 | 2 Comments »

The following link will take you to one of my favorite blog posts/articles ever. I first read it a long time ago (those of you who know me well will realize that I don’t know if it was 9 months ago or 3 years ago…but it was not recently), and I had the pleasure of [...]

The ESV Study Bible

Posted in Books, Quotes, tagged on July 30, 2008 | 4 Comments »

I have a couple different ESV bibles. The Reformation Study Bible published by Ligonier Ministries (R.C. Sproul’s organization), a thinline with TruTone cover, and a hardcover ESV that I had re-bound in goatskin by Mechling BookBindery. Why on earth did I do that, you may wonder? Well, two reasons: first, I wanted a bible that [...]

John Locke on the Language of Paul’s Epistles

Posted in Books, Quotes, Ruminations, tagged , , , , on July 20, 2008 | 3 Comments »

Google Books now has a copy of John Locke’s A Paraphrase & Notes on the Epistles of St. Paul (1853) up (it may have been there for a while, but I just recently noticed it–thanks to an interesting post about how Locke anticipates some of the New Perspective writers over at Dr. Mike Birds blog).

A Home Full of Books

Posted in Books, Quotes, tagged on July 17, 2008 | 8 Comments »

I received an email today from Kehot Publication Society with an interesting comment.

In response to being asked to turn my post Learn to Worship from Leviticus? into an article, I’ve completely re-written it and, I think, vastly improved it. Check it out.

The Biblical Meal

Posted in Quotes, tagged on July 13, 2008 | Leave a Comment »

The meal has an exalted meaning in both the Old Testament and the New Testament. It serves in equal measure and in the same manner both the stilling of hunger and the “building” of a society. The simple satisfaction of hunger would not be considered a meal in the Bible. One need only remember the [...]

More on Logos

Posted in Books, Logos, tagged , , , on July 9, 2008 | 2 Comments »

In my last post I talked a little about some of the resources available for Logos Software’s Libronix Digital Library (although there are far too many to even begin to touch the vast array of opportunities for bibliophiles like myself) and this time I would like to mention a couple ways that you can save [...]

Why I Use Logos Software’s Libronix Digital Library

Posted in Logos, Ruminations, tagged , , , on July 7, 2008 | 6 Comments »

The Libronix Digital Library System from Logos Software, affectionately known as “Logos” to most users, is second to none in Bible Study software. Apologies to Accordance and Bibleworks users, but no one–and I mean no one–has the breadth of resources available to Logos users.
