The suggest reading refers to an older version of Introduction to Biblical
Interpretation, but I purchased the current Third edition. Is there any way for you to update the suggested reading to point the current edition instead of the old version? Thanks!

Hi, I am just starting this course and was looking at all of the readings in the list at the beginning in the Course Tool. This book clearly stood out as being referenced quite a bit. Is it necessary for the course? Will I be missing out on a large portion if I don't have it? Our library has the lectures and workbook online, but not the text. I am also wondering if I would even know where to read within a hard copy (which I may be able to check out) if I didn't own it inside of Logos....- Hi, Angela. I've found that if a resource is used only once or twice, I don't seem to have trouble understanding the course without it. But a major resource which is referred to often in probably important. So I usually buy it from Logos, but if you can get a library copy, you can probably figure out where in the book to read. It'll just take a bit longer. Also, I use the "read aloud" feature and listen to the resources rather than read word for word. It's much faster, yet a trifle frustrating because the "reader" mispronounces some information. But I've adapted to it.
- Angela Meister, the readings are all supplementary. If a book is used frequently in a course you would probably find it a helpful addition to the course, but it's not necessary for the course. Mobile Ed courses are designed to stand by themselves without any of the additional readings.
