Open Source Commentary Survey – December Update

ByRob
Commentaries for Digitisation
A collection of books and Commentaries recently supplied by Book Aid for Digitisation
Dr Pieter Lalleman has now completed the first three commentary reviews. I have uploaded them so that you can see how they function within the Biblical Studies site here. I think that placing them within the bibliographies – and not on a separate page – will maximise their accessibility. They also serve as exemplars of the type and length of review I am looking for. I have also added a new information page here.
 
I am still looking for more volunteers to write reviews, so if you are able to help, please contact me.
