Like Loebs? Every fall semester, I like to remind people that while Perseus has many free Loebs sectioned up into book and chapter, if you want to download and read the public domain Loebs (277 of them) as PDFs or txt files, Duke U's very own Ryan Baumann created _Loebolus 📗📕_. ryanfb.xyz/loebolus/

"Paul expects the grace of God ... to cascade through the life of communities... his model ... suggests that everyone is ... a receiver as well as a giver." (Barclay); "May God bless and keep you always. May your wishes all come true. May you always do for others. And let others do for you" (Dylan).
