Shocking news: BibleWorks closing down

"Accordingly as of June 15, 2018 BibleWorks will cease operation as a provider of Bible software tools."

• It's sad for users. I've been using it from v.3.5 up to now... 

BibleWorks website

good news: "Until June 15, BibleWorks 10 is being made available to new and upgrading customers for the unprecedented price of US$199."

//研经工具的主要目的是为牧者和教会带领人提供一套有效的工具，帮助他们做到保罗在很久以前敦促他的门徒提摩太做的事情。为了达此目的，我们准备了预备讲章的资源，使牧者们在研经的时候可以更高效，每一次讲道或教导都因正确掌握了神的话语，而更有影响力。//

中文聖經及參考工具app推介

精读圣经

"集成朗读、查经、金句、灵修、译本对照、原文字典、圣经问答等功能。"
(若該網站結連不通, 可往這裏: Android, iOS, Windows)

• 值得留意譯本：繁—和修, 新譯；簡—呂, 現中；英—NET, ESV
• 眾多簡便註釋：丁道尔圣经注释、启导本圣经注释、串珠圣经注释、基督徒文摘解经系列、精读本圣经注释、灵修版圣经注释、马唐纳圣经注释、每日研经丛书、信望爱注释、圣经背景等多套注释。还有原文字典，原文逐字中文释义。 
• 超多靈修書籍 
• 優點：
• 經文能以段落形式顯示；
• 譯本跟註釋可供下載；
• 部分內容與"查經大全"無異，但書籍能與所看的經卷同步對照（只及經卷的章數）
• 缺點：有Strong number及對應字典，卻沒有原文並排對照（不像微讀聖經）
• 簡體字介面；不清楚其版權安排問題

The new Logos 7

New features

special offer for readers of AndyNaselli.com:
Ref.: Platinum HK$5,272.3  Gold HK$3,436  Silver HK$1,803.1 etc

Different upgrade prices (it varies depending on what previous Logos version you already own).

My initial comments:

• again, very expensive... (but already ~10% cheaper than v.6)
• as with the previous versions, it will eat up your computer's system resources. Make sure it's not installed on an old computer.  
• some noteworthy highlights:

1. integration with E-courses functions, 
2. more support for sermon preparation (editor, slides etc), 
3. more functions to highlighting texts
4. provision of a number of pre-set layouts
5. more Bible interactive media
