When it rains it pours. The past couple weeks I have been doing my best to keep up with a flood of new Accordance modules which have come to me for final checks. Be looking for lots of new goodies to appear very soon. In the meantime, you can enjoy one of these new releases today: the Revised Edition of Expositor’s Bible Commentary is now complete.
We released the New Testament volumes of the Revised EBC last October, with a promise to release the Old Testament volumes “in a few more weeks.” As weeks stretched into months, we’ve received more and more “When?” questions via phone, email, and forums. If you’ve ever wondered why we are usually so reluctant to forecast release dates, now you know: it’s just too easy for those dates to slip, and we are unwilling to sacrifice quality just for the sake of meeting a deadline.
On the other hand, I’m personally encouraged that we received so many requests for the release of the Old Testament volumes. It shows that many of you are preaching and teaching portions of the Hebrew Bible, rather than neglecting it in favor of the New Testament. Those of you who are should be very pleased with the addition of these new volumes, while those of you who are currently focused on the New Testament will also benefit from this update, which now includes extensive hyperlinking to other Accordance resources.
All in all, those of you who have already purchased the Revised EBC will find that your patience has been rewarded with an excellent commentary in a super-convenient form. Just choose Check for Content Updates… from the Accordance menu to download the completed commentary.
As for those of you who haven’t yet picked up the new EBC, what are you waiting for?
