svgoodwin Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 I have recently seen Bar Ilan's Judaic Responsa, and I would love to have it on my computer. Unfortunately, it is not available for Mac. Is there any chance that Accordance might add this as a plug in something like they do with the Deutsche Studien Bible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

svgoodwin Posted June 23, 2011 Author Share Posted June 23, 2011 We have been trying for years, and are still trying... Thanks for the reply Helen. I had thought that might be the case. I saw on a forum that they were bragging about being fully compatible with mac through bootcamp or some emulator like that. sigh. Don't they realize that Accordance has an amazing UI and search function? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michel Gilbert Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Hi, I, and I'd guess most in the Acc community, would prefer just the Judaic Classics edition, i.e., with Hebrew Bible, Targums, Mishnah, Talmud, Midrashim, and commentaries, without the Responsa literature. Responsa study is a highly specialized field, and including them would cost about an extra $700 (approx. $200 compared to $900 right now). Of course, the Responsa could be an add-on module.

Michel Gilbert Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Hi, In case someone doesn't know, the database is available online at http://www.responsa.co.il/home.en-US.aspx# on a subscription basis at http://www.responsa.co.il/default.aspx?action=showProductList . You can subscribe to the whole database for a month, 10 hours over three months (view only), or for a year, or to the Primary Sources or the Responsa for a year. The Primary Sources and Responsa are listed at http://www.responsa.co.il/books/books.en-US.html . Regards, Michel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theblackbluejay Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Hi Michael, Thanks for the info. They used to have a CD version of the Responsa database (I only know this because my former teacher, who had studied at Bar-Ilan, used it that way), but I have never found a way to purchase it. The online subscription option would be a help. Thanks, David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michel Gilbert Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Hi David. You can purchase the Primary Sources and Respona at https://www.jewishsoftware.com/products/Bar_Ilan_Responsa_22_on_USB_3235.asp . If you only want the Primary Sources, see https://www.jewishsoftware.com/products/Bar_Ilan_Judaic_Library__School__Library_Edition_2649.asp . But on a Mac you'd have to run it in a Windows virtual machine. Regards, Michel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gedalya Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 The latest version for windows is a disc on key. Bar Ilan itself no longer sells the the program on cd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
