Is there a more concise way to do this morph search?

Peter Gurry

Here's my query: "lemma:ὑστερέω BEFORE @DG OR lemma:ὑστερέω BEFORE @NG"

I tried "lemma:ὑστερέω BEFORE (@DG OR @NG)" but I got nothing. I'm just wondering if anyone has ideas on how to do the same search with less typing.

FYI, the first search string got me 7 results: Jn 2.3; Rom 3.23; 1 Cor 1.7; 2 Cor 11.5, 9; 12.11; Heb 12.15.

Morph Search will only work with the original long expression so you have to use Bible Search for a more compact form using Lists. The wiki http://wiki.logos.com/Search_HELP) will provide the gist of what is required but it will not save you either time or typing to get it into an acceptable syntax:-

<lemma = lbs/el/ὑστερέω> BEFORE (<lbs-morph+el ~ DG??>, <lbs-morph+el ~ NG???>)  <--- that's manually edited from an even longer string

But I would think that a Morph Search for
lemma:ὑστερέω BEFORE @NG achieves your objective!

EDIT: L3 Morphological Search provides a compact form and give the same results using:-

[ὑστερέω=] BEFORE [=RG??, NG??]

Unfortunately L4 doesn't allow two-parts-of-speech as an OR'd pair....

Indeed! It must have been later than I thought
