* I was working in a layout with nothing but the Notes tool open - not set to a particular notebook but it did have a particular note icon * I opened a three resource/tool saved layout that included the Notes tool with a specific icon and notebook * However, what actually opened had the icon from the previous work and the…
BUG in documentation

BUG: Filter icon in resources w/o notes/highlighting crashes Logos
Mac OS 10.14.6 (18G1012) Logos 8.10.0.0028 To reproduce: Open a resource that does not have associated highlights or notes, such as an images-only resource (I opened 1000 Bible Images, but reproduced on multiple resources) Click to open sidebar.

BUG failure to handle the Old Testament
* Why does the drop-down insist on referring to the Greek when I have clearly changed to the Hebrew? * What is the maximum range I can search? It insists in giving me NT pericopes, references from Passage Guides, will not accept a toldot range, will show me only the one pericope for Gen 1:1 ... In fact, I can't get a…
BUG in clause search (dead in my tracks on a project for months)
I am trying to get a Bible text stripped down to clauses with their verb and semantic roles. However, I am dead in my tracks due to the clause search going bananas. First, there is the bug already reported (BUG: Changing columns expands rows) but there also is an issue with the actual data - Sometimes the system goes nuts…
BUG: part tagging, part process?
I am working with an analysis chart built by running a search on Mark 1:1-15 for verb:ANY in an analysis chart showing primarily semantic data. Two issues on the data for Mark 1:8: Problem 1: Because two separate senses of the single verb are shown, all the entries associated with the verb are doubled. As the lemma already…
BUG? Repeated crash but ...
At this point this is just an FYI. Notes keeps crashing the application: * it does not produce any error/crash report in the logs - the app simply disappears * I can be doing different things, adding a note, adding formatting to an existing note, setting the notebook ... * the action I was doing when the app crashed is not…
BUG with SUGGESTION: Inconsistent text comparison; faulty behavior when version list is a collection
ISSUE 1: When I use a collection for the Bible version list, I have no control over the sequence of the versions. As I commonly use Bibles with 4 different canons (Jewish, 66 book, Catholic, Ecumenical), even my top 5 Bibles have some books that may be missing. I get around this by making the NRSV my highest priority…

BUG: Interlinear view in Text Comparison
I expect all tools that handle the OT to handle the OT as presented in the ecumenical NRSV, not to fail on the deuterocanonical books of the Greek Old Testament - a stance I consider reasonable based on: Note the standard version of the World English Bible is the ecumenical canon edition. In short, a full canon is a Logos…
Search Problems
I have the following resource: Barclay, W. (Ed.). (1975). The Gospel of John (Vol. 1). Philadelphia, PA: The Westminster John Knox Press.

Bug:No notes displayed in MRV resources in 8.8
running 8.8 on macOS 10.14.6 No notes or highlights are displayed in the "guest" resources in a Multi-Resource setup. This is especially problematic when highlighting in a guest resource, since there's zero indication that the highlight happened. When annotations are already present, toggling the MRV will display them for…
BUG? When should I expect the F7 function to work?
Why does the F7 function fail to work on 1 Clement while the Text Comparison handles this quasi-biblical text quite easily. I call it quasi-biblical because at some times, in some churches it was treated as canonical.
BUGS in Passage List
I am trying to use a Passage List to capture the reference schemes for apocrypha, pseudepigrapha, et. al. Two oddities/bugs: * The Sort appears to have it's own, unshared order. I would expect it to sort into alphabetic order when the references are non-Western Bible. What order does it think it is using? * Why does the…

BUG: Inconsistent handling of text Text Comparison/Passage Analysis
I realize that Melissa is gone, but I've waited since Feb 23, 2010 for an update on the status of this bug: BUG: Detail vs. summary Passage Analysis data mismatch.

New "feature": "The Library now displays a link to logos.com when searching non user specific facets/fields produces zero results."

BUG: Compare versions lacks verse markers
IIRC the Compare Versions River normally marks the verses every 5 verse. However, I am failing to get them. Note the versions and Bible range to recreate.
BUG: Missing scroll bar on Version River
This has been reported before: BUG: Scroll Bars Missing in Version River. Unfortunately, that report was made on May 2, 2012. It is difficult to use tools that do not work so their usage statistics unreport the actual desire to use them. With the exception of very specific, single resource type bug, I firmly believe that I…
BUG: Passage Analysis Version River
When I enter a specific beginning and ending of a passage for the Version River, I would expect one of two things to happen: * The spacing of the version to expand so that the specified passage fills the entire area * the chart simply cut off at the final verse and be blank thereafter What I would not expect and find…

BUG: Compare text on Ps. Solomon
1. Begin with the GO box for default layout. 2. Compare Versions in the Passage Guide simply uses the default Bible priorities although most Bibles do not include the book. 3. Text Comparison tool uses the LXX priorities which is a more desirable action ,,, despite some oddities. 4. The default LXX Bibles also are the…
Bug: Compare Versions doesn't work when editing a Guide
If you add the "Compare Versions" module to a Passage or Exegetical Guide, you can't set the default settings. The "Language" and "Base resource" fields both have empty drop-downs.
Passage Guide "Compare Versions" question
In 6.7 beta 2 on Windows 8.1 The screenshot below shows the Compare Versions section of a Passage Guide (in 2D mode) Any ideas why there are five versions shown on the left (these match my Top Bibles which is what is selected in Settings) but only four on the right? And why don't the colours match? Thanks, Graham
BUG: Detail vs. summary Passage Analysis data mismatch
This is a case where a verse appears in either of 2 positions. The summary shows correctly a 100% difference. However, the mouse over detail does not.
BUG: Cannot open resource via Command Box

KYLE Error in resource type - should be apparatus?
James, Montague Rhodes, and J. Armitage Robinson, eds. The Testament of Abraham: Greek Apparatus. No. 2. Vol. 2. Texts and Studies: Contributions to Biblical and Patristic Literature. Cambridge: Cambridge at the University Press, 1892. Shouldn't the resource type be apparatus?
ACKNOWLEDGED BUG REPORT or SUGGESTION? Selective appearance of interactives in the Interactives sect
Obvious what interactive can appear in the Interactives Section of a Passage Guide depends upon the type of reference required by the interactive but ... why am I unable to get the Parallel Gospel Reader or the Synopsis of Samuel, Kings, and Chronicles to appear?
ACKNOWLEDGED BUG: Biblical Event Navigator fails to appear in Interactives
I took a passage narrating the death of Saul & Jonathan - an Biblical event and a bit more - but the Interactives Guide fails to pick up the entry.
BUG: Changing columns expands rows
In trying to produce a screen shot of a separate bug, I became VERY frustrated. I have an analysis panel open from a clause search - one that has over 560 identical rows because of the columns that I have not displayed as they are not meaningful to me. (No, I am not stupid - I exported to Excel to get something I could…
RESOLVED BUG: Command line Open fails to find resource
The title that appears in the Text Comparison tool will not open the resource in the Command box ... most annoying to have to go through the library tab
BUG: Inconsistent terminology
We've run into a rash of people who are confused by the many uses of "topic" in the software. Generally, the software uses this terminology: * Bible -- topic * Sermon -- theme * Culture -- concept * Theology -- topic However, one workflow breaks this pattern. Please standardize the name.
RESOLVED BUG: Text Comparison Tool Citation error
In the Text Comparison Tool, Citations which are correct in the horizontal layout are incorrect in the vertical layout.

How the Bible Defines Discipleship: 12 Core Elements
Before Jesus ascended to heaven, he gave one final command: Make disciples. From Abraham who was called to leave his country for an unknown land (Gen 12:1–3) to the Great Commission (Matt 28:18–20), the Lord’s command to all believers is to follow him in humble faith and obedience. It’s a charge that most Christians recognize […]
Autism & Christianity: A Square Peg in a Round Hole?
My motivation was partly personal. At the time I began my research, I suffered from a complicated relationship with Christianity. I wanted to better understand both how I related to it and how Christians related to me. For many years, I had been part of a statistical cohort that showed a pronounced negative correlation between […]
What Is the Meaning of Jesus’s Temptation in the Wilderness?
The baptism and subsequent temptation of Jesus not only stand at the outset of Jesus’s public ministry, but as a pair of events they also seem to set the terms for it. In his baptism, Jesus is anointed for his mission, even as his subsequent temptation in the wilderness seeks to draw him away from it. Together, these events help us to understand all that follows, revealing Jesus’s relationship to the Father and the devil’s place as his primary antagonist.
Who Are Paul’s Law-Abiding Gentiles? | Jarvis Williams on Romans 2:14–15
When Paul says that gentiles “do what the law requires” and have “the work of the law written on their hearts,” is he describing morally conscious pagans who have God’s natural law or believing gentiles who experience the inward transformation of the new covenant? And how does this inform our reading of Paul’s teachings on judgment according to works? On this episode of What in the Word?, Kirk E. Miller sits down with Dr. Jarvis Williams to work through the interpretive issues.
