theblackbluejay Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Are there any plans to offer the Dictionary of Deities and Demons of the Bible as an Accordance module? As a graduate student studying the Ancient Near East, this would be immensely helpful. I am planning to buy a print copy, but if it were available in Accordance I would definitely buy that instead. Thanks! David (דויד) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timothy Jenney Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 What an excellent idea! I have an MA in Ancient Near Eastern Studies and have found it invaluable for exegeting the OT. Too often we consider the Bible in isolation from the culture of the people to whom it was addressed. This is especially true of their religious culture. We tend to idealize them, as if their religion was the only one they knew or the only choice they could make. Yet the Bible itself reveals that its various audiences struggled with their faiths and were often tempted by, or at least influenced by, various other religions. The same is certainly true of today's Christians—and represents yet another commonality between our spiritual experience and that of our spiritual "ancestors." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theblackbluejay Posted April 26, 2013 Author Share Posted April 26, 2013 Thanks, Dr. J.! I really enjoy your podcasts, and I hope that Accordance is able to make DDD into a module in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timothy Jenney Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Both sound like they ought to be first-person shooter games. Hmmm...., now there's an innovative feature Accordance could add! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve King Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Well as an obvious starting point I would suggest David (that would be one of the D's) starting out with a slingshot gradually upgrading as he defeats various animals until he is able to meet Goliath. Of course you could go the role play route so that he makes his way to become king and once there builds up Israel then tries to win the hand (or kill the husband) of various beautiful women. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theblackbluejay Posted December 19, 2015 Author Share Posted December 19, 2015 Dr. J, Has there been any change in the possible of adding DDD as a module in the past 2 years? It is available in Logos, but I don't use their software... Many thanks, D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Micah Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Still waiting patiently for this resource. I agree that ANE and 2nd Temple resources are the ones I'm looking for the most. Journals of those areas are also appreciated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
