Search Question or maybe a resource needed?

Okay, this is a little bit out there, so feel free to tell me so. Here's my question.

Supposed that I'm doing an inductive Bible study and I want to create a visual filter wherein the pronouns of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are differentiated. Is there a way to create a visual filter under morphology for each, or is there a resource that makes those distinctions that I can look at.

As always, thanks for your help!

Hi Cynthia

Supposed that I'm doing an inductive Bible study and I want to create a visual filter wherein the pronouns of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are differentiated. Is there a way to create a visual filter under morphology for each, or is there a resource that makes those distinctions that I can look at.

Absolutely - I did this recently when trying to understand who was being referred to through Ephesians 1:3-14.

For pronouns, you need <Person God> INTERSECTS <LogosMorphGr ~ R??????>, <LogosMorphHeb ~ R??????>

and similar for Holy Spirit and Jesus, except you can omit the Hebrew morph for Jesus.

It's called Dave's precise and logical mind trained by extensive knowledge of the search options ... often worth a big round of applause [;)]

Hi Cynthia - glad it helped.

.that the EXACT passage that my friend and I are studying right now and wanted to use it for!

I did wonder!

I was looking at this passage in some detail earlier in the year when using it as the basis for a preaching series on how we relate to the different persons of the Trinity. And I found being able to visually distinguish their roles here was helpful.

Enjoy[:)]

Absolutely.

When I saw his post I realised I had missed out on one of the details of Cynthia's request that Dave picked up on

Good work Dave[:)]

One has to know that <Person>, <Place>, <Thing> are applied to pronouns + verbs and adjectives, as well as the specific noun e.g "Most High" can be found with a similar adjectival search for <Person God>. And INTERSECTS is the best operator when comparing items that are a mixture of multiple-words (for God) and single words (a morph attribute).
