Hi,

Is there a way to do a Bible search for all verses where God gives a command to fathers?

I was thinking something like `<person God> <imperative> subject:fathers `

Not sure if this is even possible, but it would be cool!

    Hi,

    Ideally the command would be 

    {Speaker <Person God>} INTERSECTS {Label Command} INTERSECTS {Addressee <Person A Father>}

    However, the generic designation of "a father" will not yield many results, because not every Father is tagged as "a Father". In most cases, a father is tagged with a person's name (e.g. Abraham) or a a relationship (e.g Father of the prodigal son)

    You could run 

    {Label Command} INTERSECTS father

    or

    {Speaker <Person God>} INTERSECTS {Label Command} INTERSECTS father

    The alternative would be to specify a specific father you have in mind. For example

    {Speaker <Person God>} INTERSECTS {Label Command} INTERSECTS {Addressee <Person Abraham>}
