    I am a small group leader looking for a study on the practice of the Sabbath. The participants are unfamiliar with the term, but are interested in a deeper understanding of why God considered it necessary.
    1. Phil Gons (Logos) 14 days ago — Edited

      Tommie Harms, what interpretive perspective are you coming from? We have a wealth of material on the Sabbath, but there are a number of different perspectives on it: 1. It continues along with the rest of the Mosaic law and should still be observed on Saturday (Judaism, Messianic Judaism, Seventh-Day Baptists, Seventh-Day Adventists, Hebrew Roots movement). 2. It continues along with the rest of the moral law, but it's been transformed into the Lord's Day and is to be observed on Sunday (Catholic, Orthodox, many Reformed, and other Protestant denominations). 3. It has been fulfilled in Christ, who is our Sabbath rest (some Reformed, Progressive Covenantalists, some Dispensationalists)—or simply isn't relevant for the church (other Dispensationalists). Are you looking for a general overview that lays out the various viewpoints, or are you looking for something that fits more into one of these interpretative streams?

    what is fearless faith
    1. Rev. Kevin Obermeyer 19 days ago

      That's not specifically a Biblical term, but it's often meant to describe unwavering faith in God even when facing difficult or challenging situations. Did you have a specific use in mind?

    How do I put Bible search results in bibical order?
    1. Phil Gons (Logos) 23 days ago

      FWIW, you can instruct the Smart Bible Search to return the results in canonical order (by putting "in canonical order" in your query), but it will only effect the first batch of results. If you page in additional results, those won't be in canonical order.
    2. Richard 21 days ago

      Yes. Smart search. Isn’t there a drop down somewhere to make the results by relevance or canonical order? Thanks for your help.
    3. Phil Gons (Logos) 20 days ago

      No. Because Smart Bible Search pages in its results in batches, there are some complexities with changing the order. It's solvable, but we've not invested the time into it yet.

    double minded
    1. Graham Criddle 2 months ago

      Is there a question you are seeking help on - maybe searching for instances of "double minded" or something else?

    what cities made up the region of Galatian
    1. Larry Weldon 2 months ago

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galatia
      Galatia - Wikipedia
      Ancient Galatia (/ɡəˈleɪʃə/; Ancient Greek: Γαλατία, Galatía, "Gaul") was an area in the highlands of central Anatolia (Ankara, Çorum, Yozgat Province) in modern Turkey. Galatia was named for the immigrant Gauls from Thrace (cf. Tylis), who settled here and became its ruling caste in the 3rd century…

    2. Mark Barnes (Logos) 2 months ago

      The region of Galatia encompassed different cities depending on whether we’re referring to the ethnic territory or the Roman province. The debate centers on whether Paul’s letter addressed churches in the southern portion of the Roman province of Galatia, which included cities like Iconium, Lystra, and Derbe, or cities in the northern geographical region such as Ancyra and Pessinus. The northern region of Galatia was a mountainous territory in central Asia Minor (modern-day Turkey) that included the cities of Pessinus, Ancyra (modern Ankara, Turkey’s capital), and Tavium. When the Romans expanded the province southward, it came to include parts of Lycaonia, Pisidia, and Phrygia, incorporating important cities like Pisidian Antioch, Iconium, Lystra, and Derbe. These southern cities were where Paul and Barnabas founded churches during their first missionary journey around A.D. 47-48. Most biblical scholars today favor the South Galatian Theory, concluding that Paul’s letter was addressed to the churches in the southern cities of Antioch, Iconium, Lystra, and Derbe. This view is supported by the fact that in Paul’s lifetime, the Roman province of Galatia encompassed the entire central region of Asia Minor, extending from just south of the Black Sea in the north to the slopes of the Taurus Mountains in the south.

    I’m bilingual, and I tried searching using the Spanish name, like 1 timoteo, but the Logos won’t recognize it. Can you help me out?
    1. Rev. Kevin Obermeyer 2 months ago

      Unless you have a Spanish version (es.logos.com), you may need to choose a Spanish resource to search for Spanish names.

    1. Phil Gons (Logos) 2 months ago — Edited

      Factbook has audio pronunciations built into many of its pages. Look for the audio icon in the top right. https://app.logos.com/tools/factbook?lens=all&reportId=ref%3Abk.%23Habakkuk.1&title=Habakkuk

    Why can't I find the memory tool in logos? Ive watched all the vidoes and I don't have it on my logos. Can someone help?
    1. Rev. Kevin Obermeyer 2 months ago

      The Memorization Tool is in Tools under Content. If you create a Passage List, you will also find it there. To use it, you'll need to choose or create a Passage List.

    How to find in Bible search verses that have the same lemma twice or three times?
    1. Andrew Malone 2 months ago — Edited

      There may be other ways to do this. But you can accomplish what you want by starting a new Morph Query (either via a Search dialogue > Query > Create morph query document, or using Documents > New > Morph Query). (1) Most important is the "Agree on Lemma" line at the bottom. (2) Leaving the "Part of Speech" box blank will find duplicates of ANY part of speech, including repeated conjunctions or articles. You could specify something there (as in my example) like Noun or Verb; then you'll find only duplicates of that kind. (3) This search for two matching lemmas should also find results with more duplicates. But you could "+Add word" and overtly seek results which have a third (or fourth or fifth) duplicate.
