Bug v22.0 Beta 1: Cannot select resources for Passage Lists
Resource selection for Passage Lists is not working e.g. click in the Box and the picker appears instead of allowing data entry.
BUG: Prioritization of a series
Normally, if one drag-and-drops any volume of a series into the priority list, the entire series is prioritized. If, however, you are working from a limited library installation, if one drag-and-drops a volume of the series which is not downloaded into the priority list, only that volume is prioritized. I would still…
Factbook Search search helps - use of templates
In 10.1 beta 3: Hi Factbook search search helps entry refers to using search templates and provides a link to them. But if you click the link you are advised that no templates are available (I didn't actually expect them). Should the link be removed?
Factbook Tags search - use of templates
Similarly to how the Factbook Search search helps suggests the use of search templates but where no search templates are available - reported at https://community.logos.com/forums/t/211961.aspx - the same is true for the Factbook Tags search.

Odd behavior in 22.0 beta 1?
I thought this was strange, so I am posting it in case others see something similar. My system was current on 10.1, resources updated - I got 4 resources into my library yesterday, and indexing was complete. Around dinner time, after being away from my desk most of the day, I noticed on the forums that beta 1 was out. So I…

BUG: Bizarre search counts on non-existent results/ erroneous counts on actual results
The Documents menu says I have about 38 Passage Lists. However, when I search them for a word I get 7,569 non-existent results in 205 documents; when I search them for a Bible reference which should give results I get 3,201 results in 57 documents.

Where did my books > cloud search go?
Where do I find the search of books still in the cloud?

Disappearing Reading Plan Cards

Suggestion: Enable the Copy command from the search results list
One thing that has always puzzled me is why there is no context menu in a search results list. Everywhere else in Logos has a context menu when you right click. This is a very basic UI feature in virtually every other program. I would like to see this Context menu in a search results list all Copy and Print/Export. The…

Unexpected difference when using the NEAR and WITHIN n WORDS operator
This is with L10.1 RC1 on Mac I was trying to find any references to Genesis 3 describing the "rise of humanity" as opposed to a fall. And when I used the NEAR operator, I got two results in my library, when I used WITHIN 100 WORDS I only got one! The second is within a footnote as shown in the screenshot above. So it…

In the Help function of the Text Converter, hovering over a link gives the value twice.

Something I don't understand about Factbook tags and Bibles without reverse interlinears
The NIrV does not have an interlinear so doesn't have detailed tagging. But it does have Factbook tags for people (and places etc) - that allow a Factbook entry to be opened from its context menu But the Factbook Visual Filter doesn't work for this resource Is it that there is "basic" tagging applied so the people (etc)…

Is Ecclesiastes Messianic? Preaching Christ from the Vantage of Vanity
Preachers and teachers of God’s Word carry an immense responsibility. We must handle Scripture faithfully with the goal of pointing our listeners always to Jesus, the true hero of the entire Bible. This goal feels particularly challenging when we open a seemingly dark book like Ecclesiastes. Major themes of Ecclesiastes are futility, meaninglessness, absurdity, and […]
Dead Men Don’t Reign: The Role of the Resurrection in Acts
For many Christians, the importance of the resurrection seems simply to be that it validates the more fundamental saving work of Christ, namely, his atoning death on the cross. While the cross is indeed absolutely central to how Christ saves, the earliest apostolic teaching in the book of Acts gives Jesus’s resurrection pride of place in how God accomplishes salvation. What follows are four reasons—drawn from the apostolic sermons in Acts—why the resurrection is foundational to the Christian faith.
Does God Change His Mind? | Wyatt Graham on Genesis 6:5–8
Genesis 6 says that God “regretted” making humanity. This seems to imply divine change, sorrow, or even error. But how can God regret anything if he is all-knowing, unchanging, and perfectly wise?In this episode of What in the Word?, Kirk E. Miller is joined by Wyatt Graham to unpack the theological and interpretive challenges of Genesis 6. Together, they explore the role of anthropopathism in Scripture and answer questions like,Does God experience emotion? Can he change his mind? And how should pastors faithfully teach such texts?
Missional, Not Marginal: How Women Advance the Bible’s Story
Women are crucial to the mission of God. From the beginning, women were created by God as co-image bearers with men to carry the reign of God to the ends of the earth. While women represent a relatively small percentage of named people in Scripture, their stories and presence are strategic to its plot structure and in advancing redemption history. Within this unfolding drama, women are purposefully placed in Scripture to teach us, lead us, and guide us toward God’s grace and love for all humanity. Their stories are not incidental. They are revelatory.
