@thiswholecity 2. The goal is to make the digital ed. free/donation-based for all who already own the set. But if the print run doesn’t get funded, the digital ed. likely won’t happen. (But I like the idea of putting it up for purchase as a preorder. Thx!)

@BibliothecaCo Two questions 😬 1) Is anything different about the next print run besides it being a new printing? 2) Mildly freaking out about the inclusion of a digital edition in the preorders. Is/will there be a way for current owners to get the digital edition separately?

@thiswholecity 1. It will be exactly the same as the first printing, with the only difference being that a different family-owned bindery in Germany is mfg it (sadly, the original bindery closed). And we’re fixing a few typos.

A giveaway of the @BibliothecaCo Bible set. This set has been an important piece of growing a new personal appreciation for the literary art and structure of the scriptures. It’s worth buying, but winning a set with the walnut slipcase is even better. trippfuller.com/giveaways/bibl…

@thiswholecity @JBsTwoCents @bibleproject Thanks for the mention @thiswholecity. So glad this has been your experience with Bibliotheca and that it has helped you begin to navigate & read the Bible the way the ancients did. And as a matter of fact, we are up to some things…

@JBsTwoCents You should see if @BibliothecaCo is up to anything. I’ve gained so much from using that library and engaging with @bibleproject. I‘m beginning to be able to find things in scripture by their place in the narrative instead of by chapter and verse.

Anything interesting happening in Bible publishing? Anyone doing anything cool or innovative? Any discussion that needs to be (re)hashed? Trying to work ahead on articles for maternity leave, so thanks for your help, Twittersphere!

@MUFC1Pablo We didn’t seek one out. We are not officially connected to a denomination—Catholic or Protestant—and we didn’t think to seek one until after production, when folks started asking. But we may seek an imprimatur for the next printing in the next year or two.

@timetherington These lines in particular are a great example of how preservation of syntax and literal rendering can make a translation more poetic & interesting. It all comes together beautifully at the end, just like the Hebrew. Thanks for posting!

@cp_studio Single-volume NTs are sold out & won’t be back in stock until we do another print run. But there are whispers round here of a scratch & dent sale. There will be nearly-new NTs available. Keep an eye out for announcement.

@ChrisDuhn Also. the limestone it’s made of (chalk) is naturally white, so no bleach is required in the paper-making process.

@ChrisDuhn Sorry 4 delay! Yes—naturally acid free and never yellows. I found the paper & only later discovered it was wood-free and all its benefits.

@jeremylalk Hi Jeremy: Our fulfillment partner usually defaults to FedEx Ground. Also, you should’ve received an email w/ tracking info when it shipped.
