I'm not sure how long this resource is--Logos stops pagination after page 604--but it is massive; an awesome deal/page! It took me a long time to read this cover to cover--I got "info saturated" several times and had to take a break and come back weeks later. This provides in-depth coverage of inspiration, canonization, transmission, and translation of the Bible--in many forms. I read it because Geisler wrote it; it's many many references (not all Logos tagged :-( ) led me in turn to put many, many more Logos references on my reading list. It probably wasn't meant to be read cover-to-cover...but that's just the kind of encyclopedial guy I am...
