Interactive Media: A New Way to Engage the Word

Logos comes with media resources for deeper, more engaging study and better presentations.

Interactive Media are new resources that help you explore both the biblical world and original languages, as well as perform complex tasks in seconds. Get into the Word with new calculators and text converters, virtual tours, interactive infographics, and helpful tutors. Use this media to engage your students or congregation, or for your personal study.

Users are already raving about how fun and helpful Interactive Media are. You can find this media either in your Tools menu, or by searching your library.

Here are a few user favorites:

Weights and Measures Converter

Put biblical measurements in context by converting them into modern examples. Enter a biblical quantity and get modern comparisons—you’ll see that 100 cubits (the length of Ezekiel’s Temple) is about the length of four city buses or a little over two semitrucks. You’ll also discover that Boaz let Ruth take over three gallons worth of barley from his fields (Ruth 2:14). This fun calculator helps you understand all sorts of obscure biblical measurements, so you can better understand the Bible’s context.

Psalms Explorer

Explore the Psalms with this colorful browser that lets you filter the Psalms by order, genre, book, author, and theme. Use this browser in your class to explore all the Psalms written by David or all of the Messianic Psalms, or use this for your personal study to pinpoint specific answers in the Psalms: for example, find all the laments written by David about worship.

Text Converter

Convert Greek and Hebrew text in seconds. Just copy and paste the text, and the new Text Converter transforms it into a variety of schemes for transliteration, including SBL General, SBL Academic, Scientific, Spanish, and more. The next time the professor asks you to transliterate something or you’d like to insert a transliteration into your upcoming article, you can breathe easy!

Greek and Hebrew Alphabet Tutors

Learn to write and pronounce Greek and Hebrew in the pronunciation of your choice, including Koine, Erasmian, and Modern Greek. Select any letter—from alpha to omega—and you’ll be shown how to write it in uppercase and lowercase, how to pronounce it, and common lemmas that start with that letter. Once you’ve practiced drawing the letter, you’ll get a score on your accuracy, so you know how you can improve.
