Morph Search Help

I'm trying to find occurrences where lemma:αγων occurs with g:διὰ. I need to search if there are any instances in my library where lemma:αγων is followed immediately by the preposition διὰ, but I can't figure out how to do that. I have been able to search and find where these words occur in proximity to one another (lemma:αγωνANDg:διὰ), but I need to find out if they ever occur together.

Searching on Logos is learning to write code. It's overly complicated in my opinion. Doing a search like this shouldn't be so difficult. Please help.

This search should do it for you:

<Lemma = lbs/el/ἀγών> BEFORE 1 WORD διὰ

Try <Lemma = lbs/el/ἀγών> BEFORE 1 WORDS <Lemma = lbs/el/διά>

https://wiki.logos.com/Search_HELP#id:3.2e_.28Proximity.29_ANDEQUALS.2c_NOTEQUALS should help you with proximity operators, but I'm surprised you got results with the lemma:αγων AND g:διὰ

In Morph Search type lemma:αγων and you will get lemma:ἀγών as a suggestion.

With διὰ you will see a suggestion for lemma:διά (different accent).

A Morph search for lemma:ἀγών AND lemma:διά gets only Heb 12:1, and it's obvious that one does not immediately follow the other. Note that the manuscript word is not διὰ.

Curious about searching for a lemma followed by preposition ? Greek word order has preposition preceding object(s) of that preposition.

Morph Query is another search option:

FYI: created Morph Query Bug thread => Bug 7.13 RC 1 Morph Query since could confirm one result in Isaiah 7:13-14 using Septuagint where lemma:ἀγών immediately precedes lemma:δ́ιά (bug is two verses in Morph Query results).

I'm actually searching the Perseus database so I'm searching many non-biblical Greek sources.

I need to know how to do these searches myself. I have read the wiki-how page. It's still difficult to figure this out. For instance, where does the "lbs/el" come from in your search? I would not have been able to figure out this search code you have written.

Morph Search of a resource with Logos Greek Morphology: (used Logos untransliteration to convert g:agwn and g:dia to lemma's)

lemma:ἀγών BEFORE 1 WORD lemma:διά

can be copied then changed to Bible Search:

(([field bible, content] <Lemma = lbs/el/ἀγών>) BEFORE 1 WORDS ([field bible, content] <Lemma = lbs/el/διά>))

Logos OR Verbum automatically adds two fields for searching: bible and content along with specifying lbs for Logos Morphology and el for Greek. FYI: the lbs abbreviation reminds me of Libby (Libronix System).

Bible Search looks within one verse so Isaiah 7:13-14 is not found in the Septuagint (0 results).

Copied Bible Search followed by changing to Basic Search of All Resources found a number of results in Perseus resources and Septuagint.

(([field bible, content] <Lemma = lbs/el/ἀγών>) BEFORE 1 WORDS ([field bible, content] <Lemma = lbs/el/διά>))

Screen shot shows Morph, Bible, and Basic Searches along with Basic search results in two resources. Basic search of Bibles looks within a chapter, which allows the end of Isaiah 7:13 to be found with beginning of Isaiah 7:14
