- What will the free Logos 8 engine do that 7 is not doing? Is it possible to upgrade selectively since there are many items that I do not find useful and that take up space loading, etc.? I have been with Logos before it was Logos when it was the product of the Dallas Baptist Seminary and I have found Logos extremely useful but I do find "upgrades" loaded with items I do not care for as more than a nuisance. Many of the tools described in the series of videos are attractive but it is not clear to me at what level they are available.

Burton Everist, this Logos site will take you through some questions to determine what level of upgrade you want. I found it offered me a more customized upgrade: https://www.logos.com/help-me-choose-package Also this page has videos for a lot of the new features and indicates what level of upgrade the feature is available: https://www.logos.com/features#customization I found the web app gave me a preview of the new features: https://app.logos.com As I said in a previous post, each person can decide what level of upgrade meets their needs. Logos provides a free upgrade of the engine (probably available in January). It has been their promise since Libronix to do so and they have kept to it. I have also been able to upgrade a few feature sets and the engine for less than $100. No one is required to do a full upgrade each time, unlike a multitude of other software programs. I pray people can understand that Logos offers a wider range of customized upgrade options than just about any other software out there. Perhaps using the phone number (800-875-6467) for the upgrade and talking to an actual person will help everyone understand you are not locked into expensive upgrades every time. This is very unlike the rest of the software universe!
- "...learn how Christianity emerged from Judaism, and how each religion intersected and departed from the other." Isn't it better to conceptualize both Judaism and Christianity arising out of the same ancient faith in the years following the destruction of the temple following the revolt against Rome? This has consequences for our interpretation of Paul's yearnings for his kindred, of the conflicts in the Book of the Acts of the Apostles, of the Gospels and in particular of John's intricate images of "the Jews."
