L.S.
The normal exegesis-goto for translators are the Bible society manuals. Many of them are available in french via the HBKFRA resource. But quite a few are missing as well : Matthew, Acts, 1 Cor, 2 Cor, ..... etc. I remember, in 2016, I asked for an advanced copy of Matthew and received that as pdf under a "do not distribute" agreement. That was a big help. 10 years later, the translation manuel for Matthew is still not included in the french helps, for which there are probably good reasons. It would be good to know if there are other missing resources available in pdf format? Can these be made available under the same "do not distribute" agreement? I am particularly interested in 2 Peter.
Much obliged,

Bart.

Of the NT Epistles, Romans, Ephesians, Philippians, 1 & 2 Thessalonians, 1 & 2 Timothy, Titus, Philemon, Hebrews, and 1 Peter are in the HBKFRA resource in Paratext.

2 Peter is in preparation.

Of the OT books, the one on Ecclesiastes is now also available. Just in case you do have a problem accessing the one on Ecclesiastes, you can write to my email address (*Emails are not allowed*) and ask for a PDF (as before, only for personal use).

Hartelijk dank Lénart,

Ik denk dat 2 Petrus dan voor ons te laat gaan komen, wat op zich geen probleem is want d.m.v. DeepL kunnen we relevante secties "on the fly" vertalen. De kwaliteit daarvan is redelijk, hoewel de citaten uit vertalingen natuurlijk nooit 100% zijn ....

Succes met het afronden van deze serie manuals. Zijn zijn DE gids voor ons werk.
Zegen en groet, Bart
