[resolved] Bible Word Study Resource for Hebrew Defaults to Logos LXX
I've been using Logos/Verbum for a while but am just now really learning how to take advantage of many of its tools. Unfortunately, I'm having a little trouble getting the results I want from the Bible Word Study. When I search on a term, I get hits under Greek Words, but Hebrew results in no hits, most likely because it defaults to the LXX, I've prioritized my resources to ensure that the AFAT Hebrew bible is in the top five, but that hasn't improved the situation. Any suggestions?
Pax.

I assume that you are talking about the Translation section of the BWS? You tried settings (click on section bar)? I seem to be having some problems as well but of a slightly different nature.
Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

Thanks for responding, MJ, Yes, I've checked the Settings list, and the resources doesn't even appear.. I just resorted the resources though, so perhaps I need to let it re-index.

Welcome Bill,
Word Study defaults to using a Reverse Interlinear bible (e.g. ESV, NRSV) for Greek and Hebrew in the Translation section
The Textual Search uses your top Hebrew bible and does not use the Greek LXX bibles.
LXX bibles would only be used for the Septuagint Translation section from a Greek word study.
A screen shot would help us (upload using the paper-clip icon).

Perhaps Logos and Verbum differ here. Here's what I see. (Looks like I accidentally added it again.) I'm rather mystified why the LXX would be associated with Hebrew.

Thanks, Dave. That gave me enough to figure out what was wrong. I switched the settings to a different English translation, and all is now well.

Which shows that a picture is worth a thousand words!
