Here are three English translations of the Gospel of Thomas, including an SDF (Synopsis File) based on Thomas: http://bibleworks.oldinthenew.org/gthomas.zip

Here are the details:

• GTH-A Translation of the Greek Fragments of the Gospel of Thomas obtained on September 17, 2004 from http://www.sacred-texts.com/chr/thomas.htm. THE GOSPEL OF THOMAS Commentary & Typing by Craig Schenk 6/17/92. Made available to the net by Paul Halsall.
  Several fragments of a Greek version of Thomas were found among the Oxyrhynchus Papyri in the late 19th century. These fragments consist of the preamble, and sayings 1-6, 26-28, 30-32, 36-38, and 39, as well as a saying not found in the Coptic version, which follows 32. These fragments are found on Oxyrhynchus Papyri 1, 654, and 655. Generally, the sayings are essentially the same in both versions. However, the equivalent of saying 30 adds the end of the Coptic version's saying 77. The translation used here is a combination of translations by B.P. Grenfell and A.S. Hunt and Bentley Layton.
• LTH-The Gospel According to Thomas, translated by Thomas O. Lambdin Selection made from James M. Robinson, ed., The Nag Hammadi Library, revised edition. HarperCollins, San Francisco, 1990. Text obtained on September 16, 2004 from http://www.gnosis.org/naghamm/gthlamb.html.
• STH-The "Scholars' Translation" of the Gospel of Thomas by Stephen Patterson and Marvin Meyer. Text obtained from http://www.misericordia.edu/users/davies/thomas/Trans.htm on September 16, 2004, where it was taken from The Complete Gospels: Annotated Scholars Version. Copyright 1992, 1994 by Polebridge Press. Used with permission. All rights reserved.
• Synopsis File based on the Gospel of Thomas

I just updated the Apostolic fathers because i didn't have the fathers in greek, i had them in latin and english but after i did the update and used the bible compiler which was successful for both, the latin edition is 99% blank, and the greek even though it says it was successful, isn't in the resources that i can choose from. What is up?

The Apostolic Fathers in Latin in BibleWorks has always been 99% blank. Latin is provided only for those verses where no Greek is extant (at least in the Loeb edition). There are also a few Latin variants included in the Latin text in BibleWorks (taken from Loeb footnotes). Unless you found a complete Latin version and compiled it yourself, there has been no change.

I'm not sure what you mean by "isn't in the resources that i can choose from." If the Greek version compiled properly, it should be listed among the Greek versions. Currently the Apostolic Fathers cannot be displayed in the same results window with the New Testament books (or Josephus, etc.). But if you open a secondary results window, you should be able to have the Fathers in one window and Bible versions in another. Since I provided these files to this list, you may e-mail me with further questions at markeddy@adams.net. I'll try to help, if I can.
God bless!

Hear ye! Hear ye! A notice to all who are interested in compiling databases to share with other BibleWorks users!

It would probably be most beneficial if we could begin listing all book and version names that we use as we come up with BibleWorks databases. This will aid those who install the files to avoid conflicts.

I am going to begin by posting a new thread on the general discussion list.

Hello!

Looking at the master list, I could in theory download this list (or parts etc.) and then use these books within BW6 with all it's capabilities? Correct? I have been thinking about BW6 for some time now and this may take me over the top to purchase! Never knew how open and friendly BW is for users!

PLEASE confirm!


Thanks!

I'm sorry for the dead link. The head post has been corrected, and the link to Yonge's translation of Philo has been updated. How embarrassing!

[Adelphos]

Outstanding, Jim. Many thanks for this, as well as for maintaing the Master List. You and Mark and the others have done an exceptional job, for which I am sure many of us are very grateful.

Has anyone any information about the possibility to use the new dutch translation of the bible (presented in 2004) in Bibleworks 6.0 ?

Will it become available as an add-on or included in a later version of Bibleworks? I can't find any further information on this subject, apart from some information about a cooperation of the dutch bible society with the Stuttgarter Digital Bibel. Just hope that this doesn't imply that there won't be a version available in BibleWorks.
