Technically "tithe" means 10 percent or "tenth", so you can't really tithe more than a tenth (If I give a third of something, it's a third and not a tenth). If you're looking for verses about giving outside that amount, you might want to start with 2 Corinthians 9.

Bud Brown, I'm not familiar with the term assensive. Do you have the right term? If you're looking for the places where καί is translated as "even," then a search for lemma:καί INTERSECTS even in your favorite English Bible should get you what you're looking for: https://ref.ly/logos4/Search?kind=MorphSearch&q=lemma%3a%CE%BA%CE%B1%CE%AF+INTERSECTS+even&match=case&exactref=true&in=raw%3aSingle%7CResourceId%3dLLS%3aNIV2011.

Thanks, Phil, for your reply. Some grammars use the term "explicative". I've seen the term occasionally spelled ascensive. The notion is that the conjunction isn't stringing things together, but gives added information for one of the concatenated items. E.g., "Bring the cattle and horses, "even" the sorrel, back to the barn." Here "even" (kai) is assensive. That's the semantic structure I'm looking to isolate.

No - is it causing you a particular issue? Are you referring to a Basic Search or a Bible Search?

You can collapse it and expand it, and Logos remembers the last position you left it until you change it again. Same for any drop-down tab in the search results.

Thank you for these helpful thoughts. I removed the spaces after the colons, but it still doesn't show any results. When I copied and pasted the string you have in your second paragraph, it seemed to work (both for Morph and Bible Search). Do you know what the "1:" means in that case? I generated my search by first typing in "lemma: AND lemma: " and then copying and pasting in the Hebrew terms afterwards, because once I have the Hebrew terms, I cannot seem to continue writing towards the right - my cursor automatically goes back to the beginning of the Hebrew word...

The numbers indicate homophones - defined as: homophone (ˈhɒmǝˌfǝʊn) n 1 one of a group of words pronounced in the same way but differing in meaning or spelling or both, as for example bear and bare So you need to ensure you are selecting the right one when doing a search. In the case of the first time, there are variant meanings as shown in the screenshot. And this would explain why choosing the term without a homophone indicator wouldn't produce any results

Thank you very much, Graham! I think you have solved my problem now!

Several ways to do this: 1. *Selection menu:* In a resource such as the ESV select a word such as "wills" in Rev 11:6 and choose Search in the selection menu that pops up. That should open the search panel and run a search for lemma:θέλω, which shows 208 results. If you don't see the selection menu, make sure it's enabled in Program Settings. If it's searching for the form instead of the lemma, adjust the setting to prefer lemmas. 2. *Context menu*: Using the same example as above, instead of selecting "wills," right click on it. On the left side of the menu, select the lemma for θέλω (the one with the ring). On the right side of the menu, select θέλω, Inline, or Bible. 3. *Inline Search*: In a resource such as the ESV, type lemma:thelo, for example, into the search box and select the lemma from the autocompleter list. 4. *Bible Search*: You can do the same thing in the Search panel when you run a Bible search. 5. *Morph Search*: You can do the same thing in the Search panel when you run a Morph search. In all cases, if you want to limit to just Revelation you can change All Passages to Revelation. You can also add WITHIN {Milestone <Rev>} to your search and limit it that way, so lemma:θέλω WITHIN {Milestone <Rev>}.

Phil Gons (Faithlife) could you describe the difference here between using "WITHIN {Milestone <Rev>}" and "INTERSECTS {Milestone <Rev>}"? Would it just add more verses than are contained in Revelation? Thank you!

WITHIN finds where a data point occurs completely within some other data point (e.g., a large span of text). INTERSECTS finds where two data points touch either other, where they occupy the exact same "space" or overlap partially. In many cases, including this one, WITHIN and INTERSECTS have the exact same outcome. INTERSECTS is generally the better operator to use. I use WITHIN out of habit in some cases and because its name makes more sense conceptually for what I'm trying to do.

Mike Aubrey, that's so helpful! Can you share how you came to those conclusions so I can learn Logos better?

Dustin Battles, this was done with an old version (12 years ago) of the Text Comparison tool. The current version only shows differences on a verse-by-verse basis, I believe. You won't get global differences, but you can scroll through and look for patterns--the biggest one being the very large number of verses have 0% difference.

Of interest, I ran the Concordance Tool as Phil suggested on both the NIV84 and NIV (2011), and it shows there are 371,792 total words in 9,126 Headings in NIV84, and 492,420 total words in 9,190 Headings in NIV(2011). That would be a significant number of words added in the 2011 version.

Thank you! :)

How do I make Powerpont of self existence God?

Basic Search of SBLGNT for <Lemma = lbs/el/βλέπω> WITHIN 77 WORDS <Lemma = lbs/el/θεωρέω> WITHIN 77 WORDS <Lemma = lbs/el/εἶδον> finds Luke 21:1-8 and John 20:5-8
