Logos Bible Software
Price: $ 149.95 - $ 1,379.95
Software Logos Bible Study is designed to make learning the Bible easy and exciting for pastors and laity. The cost is quite high but if you want quality information you'll probably pay for that bit of advice that is still true in Bible study software.
The software and the company have an interesting history. Logos Research System was founded in 1992 by two former employers Microsoft, Bob Pritchett and Kiernon Reiniger. The two met at church and on the web site logos originally wanted to create a shareware product for distribution systems (BBS dial-ups warning of the Internet era). Frankly, I do not even remember what BBS was. I had to watch it. Systems BBS stands for "electronic bulletin board systems." Remember? "You could say they were a precursor to social networks or sites like Craigslist.
The software was originally created for Windows 1.0 that was the time when MS-DOS reigned in Seattle. Over time they make version after version improve little things here and there so it would be more user friendly. The latest version touts some of the following:
- 330 Bibles and Bible reference works different
- Six Interlinear Bibles
- Greek and Hebrew texts
- Aramaic Texts
- Latin texts
- Lexicon Greek, Hebrew and Aramaic
- Multiple Language Resources Bible
- 20 Comments Bible
- News Bibles
- Bible Dictionaries
- Word study tools
- Maps Bible study
- Bible story
- archaeological information
- Bible Ethics
- Theology resources
- Apologetics
- Christian Leadership Resources
- Pastoral Resources
- Sermon outlines and resources
- Sermon Illustrations
- Course
- and much, much more
If you have money to spare it seems that it will be worth your while to invest in a serious Bible study software as logos. I'll pick up my copy very soon. The back is they have their Mac version is still being shaped. Hence my reason for not owning this software Kickin yet. Otherwise Logos did a fantastic job by the looks of it.
If you want to see some demos go to YouTube and type "Logos Bible Software study."
Enjoy.
