    Sorry, doc, but while I have no objection to book or author filtering, if someone wishes to preach through Proverbs and is incapable of determining if the passage is from Proverbs [:S] [:^)] [*-)] [:#]

    Yes, export to passage list would be useful as well as the additional filtering.

    Job 12:14; 22:2. There are other examples but I don't have time right now to go through the whole list. Right toward the beginning there is Dt 9:2. 

    In the above examples, when I run a query in the form of <Job 12:14> NEAR proverb I get several hits that clearly treat it as a proverb so I'm guessing that the source Faithlife used has a broader definition of proverb than you. For me, the Dt 9:2 example, the context itself labels it a proverb or aphorism of some type. My concern with the data is a bit different in that I see what I would consider 3 or 4 separate proverbs treated as a single proverb e.g. Ec 9:16–18, Ec 11:1-4
