 Logos

I am almost leery to recommend Logos because it can be extremely costly, and has about 99:1 useless to useful ratio. It is designed for use by pastors and religious Christians. That said it can be extremely useful for translating. So I am including here. In the videos I posted you can see the books I use in Logos, but I will include a list here as well. As of this publishing the Original Languages package, which is what I started with, is no longer available through the company. My recommendation is to get the base product and then just purchase the books you are interested in and would like. The books I use are as follows, with a 1 to 5 star rating based on how often I use it and how useful I find it:

E-Sword

Much like Logos I am reluctant to recommend this as it is again full of much useless religious drivel, but because it can be extremely useful I am including it.
