Is this a bug with pericopes?

I am running beta 11, as you can see in picture 1 I get pericope names in the dropdown when I type John 3 in Passage Analysis. But in Bible search (Picture 2), I do not. I could swear that used tpo give pericope names too, or am I mistaken? How does your work?

Thanks!

Mine behave the same way. Cannot saw how it used to behave. To get an answer you might ask the question in the non-beta group and specify that you would like a non-beta tester to try it to see.

Just as a comment, it seems normal to me that when searching a bible for as word you would not necessarily include the pericope unless you specifically wanted that and searched your Bible using a Basic search.

I think I am wrong on this, I went back to Logos 3 to reset my brain. Bible Search does not offer pericopes, but the Home page passage study, like Logos 3, does, and of course Passage Analysis does.

I have to say, I think Logos 4 seems so powerful and versatile I slip into the mode of assuming everything can be done from everywhere. I have to watch myself...

I have had 2 cups of coffee now, all cylinders are turning (the best they can [:^)]). I'll assume this is not an issue unless someone chimes in.

Thanks!

You must have been eavesdropping on my other thread (http://community.logos.com/forums/t/12242.aspx) where I expected the same thing, sort of. I wanted to be able to go directly to a pericope listed in that dropdown in the Home Page. No can do. Someone suggested an alternative way to get there, but it's a bit clunky. I just want to be able to drop down this pericope list -- ideally in my Bible Reference box -- and jump to that pericope in my preferred Bible.

Yes, I expect Logos 4 to be able to do everything, too. Can't it make your coffee for you? [:)]

At least you are use to Logos' use of the term "pericope."

I learned that term in exegesis class. In that context, it is essentially the smallest unit of Scripture the text could be divided down into and not lose the sense of it -- e.g., an entire parable, a piece of narrative that tells a complete episode in the story, etc. Sometimes the Bible headings in various translations correspond to more than a single pericope, in that sense of the word, but they do usually roughly correlate. The readings in church services also are usually selected to begin and end on complete unit boundaries. While these are all slightly different shades of meaning, they all fit the more general first part of the dictionary definition, that is "an extract or selection from a book." Logos's use of it isn't hugely different from any of those -- it's most aligned with the "Bible headings" meaning, though I'm not really sure what all the "Pericope Sets" are (do they come from the Bible headings in all those various translations?). I wasn't being particularly specific in my use of of the term. I just want a way to go to a particular passage of Scripture that has a name commonly associated with it.

The ISBE discusses both uses of the word:

PERICOPE pə-riʹkō-pē [Gk perikopḗ—‘cutting around’]. A term used by Greek church fathers and later scholastics for an excerpted Scripture passage or a shorter classical text. Based on synagogue and early Church use of shorter readings in worship services, later Christian lectionary collections became known as pericopae.
In modern biblical studies, chiefly through the development of form criticism, “pericope” became a technical term for a Scripture unit said to have originally circulated independently. Such units were supposed to have been gathered by the Synoptic writers and implanted in a historical-biographical framework of the Evangelists’ own invention. In current exegesis the term is used for any passage of one to three paragraphs studied as a unit (e.g., Mk. 1:40–44).
