  • I've been exploring match commands in search as described here: https://wiki.logos.com/Search_Matching_Commands. At the top of the page, it says that you can combine more than one match command with a comma. Unfortunately, I'm getting an error when I try something like: match.accents, vowels:מְאֹ֑ד. It says, "Unknown keyword: vowels". If I try including the [], I don't get an error, only a suggestion to search the form without any match commands. I suspect this is user error...but not sure what it is. How can I combine 2 or more of these match commands in a single search query. What is the correct syntax? Thanks

    1. IN the search tool, if I type in a specific scripture to get data or citation from the NT in the OT Logos renders an error message. " No reults" check your spelling or broaden your search. (New Testament Use of The Old Testament). Your help will be greatly appreciated.

      2. It works for me - what passage are you entering and what type of reference are you choosing?

      3. Yes great you're in the ball park. I see that you went to Mat. 2. What happens when if you go to Mat.2:3, or 2:4 or Luke 5. Please advise. Thank you.

      4. I don't get any results with those references but, as far as I can see, they don't contain OT references so I wouldn't expect any results. What am I missing?

    2. I am new to Logos, I'd like to figure out the easiest way to quickly search for inflected words, so for example. How can I search this in the desktop/web app? It seems like it somewhat worked on the web app, but it picked up some other verses that should not have been picked up. Not sure if there is a way to search a specific hebrew word with the vowel points? אשׁריו אַשְׁרָיו

      2. Thanks, yeah no luck on the panel linking for me, say look at these screenshots, it seems that if I do match mark on the manuscript, it makes sense, it only finds the 1 form of that, so that works for me. However, oddly enough I wonder why if I copy the lemma, that it doesn't find anything? I figure it would filter as well right there in that same search box? Does logos offer any kind of API where I could build a search box, to more quickly look up lemmas and manuscript forms?
      3. >if I copy the lemma, that it doesn't find anything? The homograph number is an essential part of the lemma, so the search query needs to be lemma.h:עֶ֫צֶב.2 Using the context menu or autocomplete in the Search query input is easier than trying to type that out, since the left to right text makes the homograph number look like it comes before the word, when it actually follows. You'll get that option if you paste עֶ֫צֶב, or if you type something to "untransliterate" like etsev.

      4. Thanks , I wonder if Logos could build a "lite" version where it only allows for a user to use these features? 1) text comparison tool on any single scripture reference (Example: John 1:1) 2) bible word study tool on any single word from that scripture reference (Example: "beginning" from John 1:1) 2a) ability to see the complete range of words for that particular word, not only by single translation but all or certain set of translations A "lite" version would allow anyone, no matter where they read their bible, if they want to dig deeper on a given word, they could use the Logos "lite".

    3. Is the book of Hebrews an epistle

    4. desierto Mateo 4: 1 griego

      1. ἔρημος

    5. How can I limit an ai search to the collection of "my favourites" I established in Logos 10? Problem: I don't want ai to include non-essential books in my ai search.

      2. Please post a screenshot showing what you are seeing in a Books Search
      3. Ok. Feito.

      4. If you click the icon I've outlined in red below you should see a list of your collections (and other things) that you can select from

        2. I have tried doing some searches and clicked on the summarize following several pages but when I save to favorites I keep getting back the first 50 on the page and no more. Is there a limitation
