Re: orion Re: CD-Rom material



To Richard Anderson:

Jacob Knee beat me to the punch in informing you of The Dead Sea CDROM
prepared for the purpose of scholarly research. reviewed at

http://info.ox.ac.uk/ctitext/publish/comtxt/ct16/mohrmann.html

Though the CDROM seems a bit pricey.   I am acquainted with some of the
people who prepared the CDROM --a lot of work went into it.   If a source
of texts is what you are after this is the one.

There are also excellent commercially available interactive Educational
CD-roms.
One is by Logos,  according to their advert

This cdrom is available from:

http://www.eisenbrauns.com/software/logos/deadsea.html

There are a number of other CDROM at that site which may be of interest.

There are also a number of websites that offer Pseudopigrapha and
Patriologia on-line.
CDroms are available but they may not be necessary for those connected to
the web.
An interesting list of links is posted by the Syrian Orthodox Church at:

One site is

There are a number of other good links.  I would be happy to reply with
more offlst.
