00:00Okay, so we're continuing again with this topic we're discussing: materials.
00:29in order to do a good hermeneutic, to do a good exegesis.
00:33And well, I'd like to introduce you, let me see, here I have, let me introduce you now, the modern way of doing all this, right?
00:43So, as we just saw, I have a ton of paper and items here that when I need to search, I have to go and analyze them, and so on.
00:55Well, today technology offers us much easier and obviously much cheaper ways to do all this.
01:08Certainly not as economical as we would like.
01:12Also, all of this is American and you have to pay for it in dollars, but it's worth doing.
01:18I want to introduce you to two programs that I've discovered to be the most comprehensive and the best for conducting a proper analysis.
01:30And they also give us many, many tools to do it.
01:34Unfortunately, due to time constraints, I couldn't present all of this to you in full, but I want to introduce you to two programs.
01:42We have two programs. One is on logos.com, which is this resource provider's website.
01:51It's the biggest one we have.
01:54If you look there on your screen, we have logos.
01:58This is the original logos page.
02:00If you look there, well, I'm already logged in.
02:03I have my own account and well, that's where you buy the resources.
02:09We can see there a series of resources that they offer us, which are, let's say, promotions, recommendations.
02:17But I would like to show you how we can start a collection.
02:22Unfortunately, when I started this, I didn't go and buy the packages.
02:27But you have to buy a package, otherwise it's really expensive.
02:32We're currently on logos 7.
02:34This is a truly very, very powerful collection of books and program.
02:40We will see this throughout our exegesis.
02:43We'll be using this program.
02:45And these are the collections.
02:47There you can see the prices in dollars for each of the collections.
02:52Each collection can have from 50 books, 60 books.
02:57For example, let's look at the Starter, that is, to start up.
03:01This library is 136.95.
03:07And here we have a comparative study of how many books he has.
03:12For example, he tells us that he has five Bible commentaries.
03:16He tells us that he has no tools or resources in the original languages.
03:23He tells us that he has eight books on theology, and that he has twelve dictionaries or encyclopedias.
03:30And he has a course, he has a book about the Church Fathers.
03:36So, this course is the basic one.
03:40I really wouldn't recommend it if you're going to invest in it.
03:45Now, if there's nothing else, then we're talking about having to invest almost three thousand pesos in this resource.
03:54It's worth it.
03:55It's not the one that gives us all the tools because it has very few Bibles and few tool resources.
04:01The course that I think would best suit us is the bronze one.
04:07This bronze has a price of three hundred seventy-two fifty in the United States.
04:12In other words, you're talking about investing a little over seven thousand pesos in your studio.
04:17But just look at all that changes.
04:19Here, for example, we have twenty-five biblical commentaries.
04:23We have nine books, tools, and resources in the original languages.
04:28We have eight theology books, twelve dictionaries or encyclopedias.
04:32We have two courses and we have four resources about the Church Fathers.
04:40They put us here, that is, the most important ones, for example, there is this one, the new biblical study of the New Testament, which is seventeen volumes.
04:49And all these books, all these books that you're seeing right now on your screen quickly, are all the courses, it's everything that's coming.
04:56If you look closely, there are many, it says there, where it says Own It, well, that's because I already have them.
05:01I have a collection that, well, is a little over a thousand books.
05:06If we buy them separately, as I was saying, well, all these books would cost more than four, almost five thousand dollars if we were to buy them book after book, book after book.
05:18So, what's really advisable is to buy a collection of books.
05:23Here we have, then, this Logos, the Logos software, which really helps us to enter a serious and professional platform.
05:38Now, do you want to go further ahead?
05:40Well, then, there's the silver collection, which is truly a collection for scholars.
05:47It obviously costs twice as much.
05:49If you look closely, we're increasing the cost, but, well, that's how it is with everything, right?
05:54In other words, when you enter, when you enter university, well, all of this is going to have a cost.
05:59We now have 77 comments, 32 resources to advance in theology, 13 dictionaries and encyclopedias,
06:11three courses and 51 church fathers.
06:16So, this is truly a serious collection, a large collection.
06:22For example, here, in addition to what the other one already showed us, here we have, for example, the Tyndale Commentary,
06:28Tyndale's commentary, which consists of 49 volumes of a commentary and an encyclopedia.
06:34In short, here we see an endless number of resources contained in this collection.
06:41Obviously, then, this is for people who at some point are really thinking about having, well,
06:49a serious, large, in-depth collection of books for study.
06:55They're for studious people, aren't they?
06:57So, over time I have acquired these things and have always been progressing in my collections.
07:05The collection is gradually upgraded, and then you pay the difference in the collections.
07:10And this, then, is what allows us to accumulate a certain amount of resources that, well,
07:16This makes us true experts in all of this.
07:20We also have another collection of books that I would like to show you, which is the one we have now.
07:29Let's now see this new collection on the screen.
07:33This one is from Olive Tree.
07:35Another resource we have is Olive Tree.
07:38Here you can see the Olive Tree page on your screen.
07:41And you'll see that on this page we don't have, as we saw in Logos, we don't have collections.
07:49If they are not individual books, you buy each book individually and build your own collection.
07:57They will notify you periodically; you subscribe and they will announce the new resources to you.
08:06They have, for example, more resources in Spanish.
08:08For example, they have the God Speaks Today Bible.
08:13It's a Bible that's been through a lot of battles, isn't it?
08:16But, for example, Logos doesn't have it.
08:18They do not have, for example, the Jerusalem Bible, which Logos does have.
08:24So, well, what I've done is, I've bought some very particular books that interest me.
08:30When I want a particular book, I come here to Logos and look for it here.
08:35If I find it, well, I'll have the resource there.
08:38And if not, well, I'll just go and look for it at Olive Tree.
08:41At Olive Tree, I can find it and you can buy it there too.
08:45Everything is done via credit card.
08:47It downloads directly to your computer and we have it ready.
08:51For our study, both in this class of exegesis and in the following courses, in the course of Paul, we will already be using this resource.
09:03Because from Paul onwards we really started working with exegesis.
09:08And it's very important to have a good tool, which, as I was saying, you can make with books.
09:14This book, for example, must currently cost around 1200 or 1300 pesos.
09:21So, these are generally imported and everything is paid for in dollars.
09:28And with the dollar as it is right now, it's complicated to have a collection that is very, very, very basic.
09:35Here I have 5 or 6 resources and perhaps I've already had to invest about 2000 or 2500 pesos in these resources.
09:42Saving up a little, maybe even using a credit card, right?
09:47And then you pay for them monthly and you build up a collection, as we were saying earlier, of about 7500 pesos.
09:54You can pay for them in installments, and I think it's worth it.
09:59Okay, this is starting to sound more like an advertisement than a class, but it's really important that we have a working tool.
10:08Otherwise, we'll always be stuck with very basic levels.
10:14And that's because, for example, we have different approaches.
10:19Let's get started.
10:20Let's leave the books behind for a while.
10:22And we're going back to the text approach.
10:24As you can see right now on your screen, we have different levels of depth.
10:30We have a superficial level.
10:32We have a first analysis that goes deeper into the text.
10:37And a second analysis that would truly get to the root of the problem.
10:42We can certainly continue to progress, but generally, let's say, at our level of study,
10:48With these two levels we would have.
10:50In this other table that you are looking at right now, we see what is required to perform the different analyses.
10:58For example, for the superficial one, we would need to know who the text is aimed at.
11:03What do I understand when I read, that is, when I do my first reading.
11:07What image comes to mind?
11:09What similar situation in my life could be likened or compared to what we are seeing?
11:17And what would the application be?
11:20If we go to a first analysis and now we are going to enter into an exegesis,
11:25Well, we would have the sum of all the above, of all the previous factors.
11:29But now we would need to further limit our text.
11:32Let's go into more detail.
11:33We need to have a shorter text.
11:36We now need to review other translations to see what was translated in other languages, in other sources.
11:42Now we have an analysis of the differences that exist in the parallels, in the steps that are equal, in the parallel steps.
11:50And let's see what new insights emerge from this analysis.
11:56And finally, we will delve deeper, which we will see mainly in our class on Saint Paul and Saint John.
12:02There we would need a study of words, a hermeneutic study of words.
12:07We would obviously need tools here that can help us from the original languages.
12:15What use is made of it in the writing, not only in that passage, but throughout the entire writing.
12:22We would now need to move on to what we will see later, which is historical criticism and literary criticism.
12:28In other words, we're going to go now and see what the text says, but in depth.
12:34So, all of this leads us to these different depths and different contents within our reading,
12:45from this passage we want to extract the message for ourselves.
12:50Well, let's leave our thoughts here.
12:54We'll continue in a moment.
13:04Thank you.
13:05Thank you.
