As it turns out, I didn't have this volume, either.

I got it at Amazon and Google Play. I got a link for it at Christianbook, but at a price of $8.99 (Ack!).

How does a person get both ePub and PDF from Google?

Fluribus · 09-05-2018, 02:13 AM

Paul Copan Is God a Moral Monster?: Making Sense of the Old Testament God

I believe you need to go to https://play.google.com/books on a computer. Log in and it will show your books. Click the three dots on the bottom of the book and it will give an option to download PDF.

This is an awesome thread. Thanks for these!

Thanks. Great information, which no doubt will be of long-lasting usefulness.

I've occasionally posted a collection of free stuff and the appearance of the new guy made me realize it's been a while. Most of this has been posted before in one form or another. To keep from annoying people that have seen these links several times now, I've wrapped them in SPOILER tags.

Works. I never knew that that feature existed. And, I long have been curious what format that I was getting when I bought one of their books.

But, you failed to mention your own ebook. I don't see how it could be considered self-promotion, since you put it in the public domain, and don't stand to gain one red cent from it. But, to be safe, I'll post it.

In case anyone else is interested, what GtrsRGr8 is talking about is that I put together a PDF similar to Richard Elliott Friedman's The Bible with Sources Revealed, which shows the various hypothetical sources of the Pentateuch in different colors. I used the ASV and data published in 1902, so there should be no jurisdiction with copyright difficulties. It's in Mobileread's Patricia Clark Memorial Library here.

Most of this has been posted before in one form or another. To keep from annoying people that have seen these links several times now, I've wrapped them in SPOILER tags. Spoiler: Crossway's ESV Classic Reference Bible and ESV Global Study Bible are available for free at the usual ebook stores, but can still be downloaded as DRM-free epub and mobi (for Kindle) files from Crossway if you're willing to create an account. ESV Classic Reference Bible: Crossway eBooks.com Amazon ESV Global Study Bible Crossway eBooks.com Amazon Crossway has a free ESV Android app, as well. The HCSB (Holman Christian Standard Bible) from Broadman & Holman can be downloaded as a DRM-free epub here. It's also free at regular ebook stores (Amazon). HCSB: Navigating the Horizons in Bible Translations (free everywhere, but here are links for eBooks.com and Amazon) is a book about Bible translation in general and why B&H thinks that its HCSB translation is the best. The updated CSB isn't free as a standard ebook, but the Android app is free. The NETS (New English Translation of the Septuagint) can be downloaded as PDFs of individual books (including Greek Apocrypha) here. The 1917 edition of the JPS Tanakh is available as a PDF from The Jewish Publication Society's website. Sign up for their newsletter and you'll be redirected to a page with a download link. Note that this isn't a scan, but has been typeset as a PDF. Barbour Publishing's Holy Bible New Life Version, New Testament is free at a few ebook stores (not Amazon, curiously): B&N Kobo The Lexham English Bible is free in various formats (including epub) from Logos software. Also from Logos and the Society of Biblical Literature is the SBL Greek New Testament, again in various formats. If you otherwise have little use for a Greek New Testament, note that there's a "reverse interlinear" with the LEB English text and the corresponding Greek. If you use Logos Bible software and have an account, Logos has three main sites, each of which offers a free book each month. The free version of the software is here. Logos Verbum Faithlife If you use WordSearch Bible software, there's a free book each Friday. If the free ebook link redirects to the main page, either wait a few hours (they're not always punctual about putting it up) or check the blog. The free version of the software is here. Olive Tree Bible Software was bought out a few years ago by the Christian division of HarperCollins. HarperCollins owns Zondervan and Thomas Nelson, so The Olive Tree software includes the NIV and NKJV for free in addition to the other standard free Bibles (ESV, HCSB, KJV, ASV). Olive Tree software is free. A PDF of Frank Moore Cross: Conversations with a Bible Scholar by Herschel Shanks is available here. There are others as well, but the rest are lower quality. Mark Goodacre's The Synoptic Problem: A Way Through the Maze is available as a PDF scan. It's linked at the Internet Archive from the author's website. If you're into creationism, here's a list of ebooks that Answers in Genesis offered for download a number of years ago. They removed the pages linking to the ebooks, but didn't remove the ebook files themselves and the links still work: Frozen in Time by Michael Oard Flood Legends by Charles Martin Global Warming and the Creator's Plan by Jay Auxt and William Curtis The Lie: Evolution by Ken Ham Creation Facts of Life by Gary Parker In Six Days: Why Fifty Scientists Choose to Believe in Creation The Great Dinosaur Mystery Solved! by Ken Ham Defending the Faith by Henry Morris Biblical Creationism by Henry Morris Men of Science, Men of God by Henry Morris PDF epub mobi The Beginning of the World by Henry Morris PDF epub mobi Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormon) Scripture, magazines and lesson manuals. Watch Tower Society (Jehovah's Witnesses) Bibles, Magazines, books and online library. Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy can be downloaded as a PDF here. The "Congregation of YHWH", which seems to be a sort of Jews for Jesus organization, has its own Bible translation. The Hebraic Roots Bible is available in several formats here.
