Bible Translations Word Lookup

Is there a tool in Logos where I could find out how all of my English translations render a certain word (at least the translations which are tagged to the original languages)?

For example, I was curious which translations rendered the word σπλάγχνον in Luke 1:78 as "tender" and which ones rendered it as "bowels." I did a quick text comparison, but I'm imagining the benefit of having perhaps a donut graph (like the one in the BWS) which categorizes the word choice by translation.

The "Text Comparison" tool is static instead of dynamic, so in the instances where I may not know which English word corresponds to my Greek/Hebrew word, I'd have to open it up separately.

Does this tool already exist in some form?

Hi John

Try the Translation Section of the Information Tool (depending on settings you either need to hover over a word or click on it to update the tool)

The Information tool has a Translation section which works with your reverse interlinear bibles in showing how a word is translated.

Lk 1:78 "tender" isn't translated "bowels" in my RI's. Had to use a Bible Search for bowels restricted to Lk 1:78 to find it in DR and 1890 Darby, and as a literal gloss in The Interlinear Literal Translation of the GNT (Newberry).

That's it! Thanks for the help Graham. I don't use that tool too often, so I wasn't aware of that feature.
