Over the past several years, scholars have
overwhelmingly embraced the findings of discourse grammar. Whether in its Hebrew or Greek format, many works on discourse grammar in the past decade have advanced our understanding of the original text of the Bible. Logos Bible Software has been on the front-lines of scholarship in this area, providing works from top scholars to help you better grasp the meaning of the Hebrew and Greek text.
A few years ago, we released the Lexham Discourse Hebrew Bible. This resource, created by Steve Runge and Joshua Westbury, was a massive undertaking—seeking to visually present the discourse and communicative functions of the Hebrew text of the entire Old Testament. For those who do not know the Hebrew language, Runge and Westbury compiled the most useful discourse devices annotated in the Lexham Discourse Hebrew Bible and marked them in the text of the ESV.
However, because of the magnitude of the project, we would not have been able to ship the entire resource for a number of years. To avoid this, we shipped only the parts that were completed so that those who wanted to take advantage of the resources that were finished could do so. This left only a few books of the OT out of the resource.
After many years of hard labor, we are now ready to ship the remainder of the product to our customers. If you already own this product, you do not have to do anything. Upon opening your Logos Bible Software, the rest of this product will automatically download. Everyone who downloads this product going forward will download the completed product.
Since this project has grown in the past few years, we are raising the price of this bundle to $249.95. If you already purchased this product in the past, you will not pay the additional cost. You will get the rest of the product on the 24th with no extra charge. However, if you have not placed an order for this product yet, you can still take advantage of the lower price of $219.95 until we ship the rest of this product on the 24th.
The Lexham Discourse Hebrew Bible is a great leap forward in the study of the OT. The Lexham Discourse Hebrew Bible identifies discourse markers and performs complex discourse analysis of the entire Old Testament quickly, easily, and accurately, making it one of the most advanced tools for studying the Hebrew text. Make sure to pick this product up for $219.95 before the price goes up on the 24th.
