Regarding the textual work, I should know as I'm the one who did the conversion work on the NA27 from the supplied apparatus files. The GBS were instrumental in providing help proofing the work. The resulting product, the SESB, is theirs and is distributed in the US by Logos. <BR/><BR/>Regarding the Aland synopsis in Logos Bible Software -- The general alignment is available in whatever Bible version one has on the system. Choose the Greek text as the display text, and the synopsis will appear in Greek. Change to English (or German, or Danish, or French, or whatever) and that text will be used.<BR/><BR/>While we're at it, let's not forget the Tischendorf Editio Octava Maior available from Logos (and BibleWorks, and Accordance, I think). Scads of info, though no papyri information. And Comfort & Barrett's Earliest NT Manuscripts, also in Logos format (or print form from Tyndale in the US).<BR/><BR/>You should be able to find more info on any of these by heading to the Logos web site (http://www.logos.com) and searching the site for relevant keywords.<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/><BR/>Rick Brannan<BR/>Logos Bible Software<BR/>http://blog.logos.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17859011.post-1132679941501904102005-11-22T17:19:00.000+00:002005-11-22T17:19:00.000+00:00(More self-promotion...)

Italian speakers have an advantage here, because they can use my free Bible program <A HREF="http://www.laparola.net/programma/" REL="nofollow">La Parola</A>, which among its optional components includes all the text critical apparatus visible in the on-line version at http://www.laparola.net/greco/. The program is also in English, but the apparatus in the program is only in Italian (whereas the on-line version is in both English and Italian).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17859011.post-1132658850016832082005-11-22T11:27:00.000+00:002005-11-22T11:27:00.000+00:00Benjamin Pehrson,I do not see Aland's Synopsis Qua...Benjamin Pehrson,<BR/><BR/>I do not see Aland's Synopsis Quattuor Evangeliorum in the software nor any English equivalent.<BR/><BR/>Logos did not create the SESB apparatus. The Deutche Bibelgesellschaft created it and uses the same software as Logos (Libronix) to make everything come together. Logos is the American marketer of the product.<BR/><BR/>If you want answers from the source, contact the creators of the software: <BR/>http://www.dbg.de/channel.php?channel=27<BR/><BR/>My knowledge of Logos' work on an apparatus criticus is anecdotal... A friend who worked on one of their other products told me they were creating their own apparatus when I touted the superiority of my SESB over his Logos software.Christian Askelandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09381441700351009913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17859011.post-1132647661391570512005-11-22T08:21:00.000+00:002005-11-22T08:21:00.000+00:00Christian Askeland asked in the original post abou...Christian Askeland asked in the original post about "some novel uses for word or excel in tracking textual phenomena."<BR/><BR/>I have made available an Excel add-on for Quantitative analysis ("QAnalys"), á la Colwell & Tune , which is available at:<BR/>http://rosetta.reltech.org/TC/downloads/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17859011.post-1132588565282330542005-11-21T15:56:00.000+00:002005-11-21T15:56:00.000+00:00You may want to look at Accordance.

They carry a new product called <A HREF="http://www.accordancebible.com/packages/details.php?ID=380" REL="nofollow">Stuttgart Original Language Collection</A> which includes pretty much the same stuff as SESB (except for the WIVU database). Besides, there are other critical apparatuses available (most notably, <A HREF="http://www.accordancebible.com/modules/details.php?ID=328" REL="nofollow">CNTTS</A>, which is very useful for text-critical studies). You can use Accordance natively, on a Mac, or under emulation.<BR/><BR/>Rubén Gómez<BR/><A HREF="http://www.bsreview.org/" REL="nofollow">Bible Software Review</A><BR/><BR/>PS I enjoy your blog!Rubén Gómezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15860067299896776038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17859011.post-1132581981338591342005-11-21T14:06:00.000+00:002005-11-21T14:06:00.000+00:00I'm editing the Syriac Interlinear NT for Logos al...I'm editing the Syriac Interlinear NT for Logos along with George Kiraz and Terry Falla.P.J.
