Is there a way to search books for only one specific verse? I can conduct a search for e.g. <bible:"Genesis 1:1"> and this will give the results for that verse, but also anything for instance that refers to Gen 1 in general. Normally that is fine, but sometimes I would like to know if a particular verse only is mentioned without other results for a larger number of verses.

    Sorry for not being clear. I was searching in Books, with a specific collection of books and All text. Then as search term I use e.g. bible:"Genesis 1:1". That does not show the actual verse (the collection does not include a Bible), but any reference to that verse in any of the books in the collection. But any broader references (such as the whole chapter) are also included.

    And using the help I now found the answer to my own question. I have to add an equals sign, so "bible:="Genesis 1:1" rather than bible:"Genesis 1:1". Sorry I should have looked at the help examples first.
