The Logos solution may be the path I try. The price is rather steep for what I am used to, but when I called I was told that I could get a better price on the phone. I did not see Englishman’s listed, but Logos says that it is integrated into the software. This is where Logos suggested their Original Languages Library edition.

The word of God is full of adventure, excitement and surprises. So various dictionaries and resources like Englishman’s are really very helpful. Christian Focus Story Bible Carine MacKenzie £ 13.99 Buy 10 and save 20 (£11.19 / book) Buy 20 and save 25 (£10.49 / book) Buy 35 and save 30 (£9.79 / book) Qty: Add to basket. My experience so far has been that there is unity in the truth between the Hebrew and Greek that one does not find in the English. What I really want is an easy way to see what the Hebrew and Greek really say. I do not use commentaries and do not need 25 different translations. I still have QuickVerse 4 for Windows so I am used to that one and the price seems more reasonable than Accordance so far. It is not in beta yet, but apparently works. The Logos solution is to let you download a file that makes their Windows version work on the Mac. It reminded me of some satellite connections where you type three letters and wait for the screen to show them ten seconds later.Ī simple search will show you QuickVerse, Accordance and now Logos. I have reasonable DSL and the online version was lagged and hard to use. On-line usage does not facilitate serious study and is unusable except for those with very good broadband connections.
This is not a solution so E-Sword is out of the picture. The last thing a Mac or Linux user or fan wants to hear is that the solution is to spend $300 on a copy of Windows. The author suggested running Parallels or Boot Camp on the Mac with no suggestion for Linux. E-Sword is going toward on-line and has no intention of writing new versions.

To the end of improving the possibilities on Linux I contacted a couple of Bible software companies to let them know about the need. For someone like me who is tired of Windows problems and enjoys Linux I may have to switch to the Mac to be able to do any real study. So for OSX things are looking pretty good. There are two and really three choices for Mac. I think that is all most do with Bible software other wise they would never give the above answer. They also have errors in the Strong’s dictionary. When one responds with the answer, “Why not use GnomeSword?”, I answer that they are not ready for serious study. Bible software is the one major item that is missing for Linux. My last post has forced me to get a little more serious about looking for good Bible software.
