Osborne’s Hermeneutical Spiral (12 Days of Logos)
Grant Osborne
Today, the second edition of Grant Osborne’s Hermeneutical Spiral for Logos Bible Software has come on sale. According to Osborne,
hermeneutics is a spiral from text to context–a movement between the horizon of the text and the horizon of the reader that spirals nearer and nearer toward the intended meaning of the text and its significance for today.
For more information, please see the 12 Days of Logos product page.

BHHB on Pre-pub at Logos
The first four volumes of the Baylor Handbook on the Hebrew Bible Series are now available for order from Logos Bible Software via their pre-publication program. In general,
Rather than devote space to the type of theological and exegetical comments found in most commentaries, this series instead focuses on the Hebrew text and its related issues, syntactic and otherwise. The volumes in the series serve as prequels to commentary proper, providing guides to understanding the linguistic characteristics of the texts from which the messages of the texts may then be derived.
For further information, please see the product page.

Another Note on Upgrading to and Installing Logos 4 on Ubuntu
Following up on yesterday’s comment about upgrading to and installing Logos 4 on Ubuntu via a Windows XP machine in VirtualBox, Logos 4 offers a nice import procedure that allows Logos 3 users to transfer all their personal user data files (e.g., notes, markups, queries) into Logos 4 relatively painlessly. There do, however, seem to be a couple hitches when trying to import Logos 3 user data in virtualized setup like the one described here. For the import to work properly,
- The “My Documents” folder must be mapped to a local drive on the virtual machine rather than a shared folder from the Ubuntu host system.
- The Logos 3 user data folder must be in its default location (for Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\[Username]\My Documents\Libronix DLS).
The Logos 4 import does not seem to find the Logos 3 user data folder if it resides elsewhere besides its default directory, and at least from inside VirtualBox, if “My Documents” is mapped to a shared folder from the host system, during the import process from that folder, Logos 4 will raise an error message and shut down. Once these couple prerequisites are satisfied, however, the import seems to go very smoothly.
