Song of Songs: The Bible's Love Poem - by Keith Simons. Bible students disagree about the meaning and purpose of this book. This commentary explains the things that are clear in the Song.
The commentary shows up fine as a parallel resource when I am in another commentary. It shows up if I search for type:commentary. However, it never shows up in the passage guide, even though there are milestones in it. The sample from the post has commentary on the first few verses of John 1. But opening the passage guide for these verses doesn't bring it up.
I had the same problem, and solved it by setting the type to Bible Commentary instead of Commentary. Not very obvious, but it is the trick. I have only one resource tagged as Commentary, and it is a commentary on the Pseudepigrapha.
I must be missing something, then. I did set it to "Bible Commentary" (but also tried "Commentary", just in case). Still not working. The book gets created, all bible links and headings work perfectly, but it doesn't show in the passage guide. I used both the [[@Bible:reference]] form and the [[@reference]] form shown in the help file
However, I started to wonder whether the search results for the commentary section were being cached in Logos. So I closed Logos, re-opened it, and then tried the Passage Guide again. It showed up! And now it shows up consistently.
Actually, this would explain why today, when I retried the sample commentary file referenced from the Wiki suddenly showed up this morning in the Passage Guide when it didn't last night. I had shutdown and reopened Logos.
Whether you see the Bible as the living word of God, or as a highly significant document from the ancient world, or as one of the classic works of world literature, The Oxford Bible Commentary will put in your hands everything you need to study and understand the biblical text. Here is a monumental, line-by-line critical commentary on the Bible, covering all the books that appear in the NRSV. An essential reference work, this definitive book provides authoritative, non-denominational commentary written by an international team of more than 70 leading scholars from various religious backgrounds. Incorporating the latest research, the contributors examine the books of the Bible in exhaustive detail, taking a historical-critical approach that attempts to shed light on the scriptures by placing them in the context in which their first audiences would have encountered them, asking how they came to be composed and what were the purposes of their authors. The Commentary includes a general introduction, extensive introductions to both testaments and the Apocrypha, and briefer introductions to the particular books, plus an essay with commentary on important post-biblical Jewish and Christian literature. Each article concludes with a bibliography that points the reader toward the most important supplemental works in English, including major reference works, introductions, and so forth.
What is a commentary?
A Bible commentary explains or interprets the Bible or a specific book of the Bible.
Some commentaries cover the entire Bible, while others are devoted to individual books of the Bible. Whole-Bible commentaries may be one-volume or multi-volume. Most libraries, both public and academic, have at least one Bible commentary in their collections. Trexler Library has many. Some are located in the Reference area and must be used in the library. Others are located in the General Collection and may be checked out. Commentaries in e-book format are also available.
Search Tip: If you are looking for a commentary on a specific book of the Bible, add the name of that book to your search terms (e.g., bible commentary genesis).
