All instances where the Synoptics might be citing or alluding to the Book of Exodus

I have found this search online: {Speaker <Person Jesus>} WITHIN {Section <LiteraryType Quotation,  Old Testament>}

But that search doesn't work with Exodus as a replacement for Old Testament, and neither does it work if I specify it as book:Exodus. How can I find all the instances of the writings alluding to Exodus or Jesus himself speaking (both would be great) in the Synoptic tradition as well as the Gospel of John (separate)?

Thank you!

    In Logos 8 in tools there is one called New Testament Use of the Old Testament.

    If you open it and select Jesus as speaker and then the OT Book as Exodus you will get the following:

    You can then look at the type of use and select the one you want to filter further.

    Hope this helps.

     {Speaker <Person Jesus>} WITHIN {Label Intertext WHERE Source ~ <Ex>} is the simple solution, where Jesus is the speaker.

     {Speaker <Person Jesus>} WITHIN {Label Intertext WHERE Source ~ <Ex> AND NOT Relationship ~ "Echo"} excludes "Echo", but includes Quotation, Allusion and Citation.

    See https://wiki.logos.com/Search_HELP#Searchable_Labels under Intertext.
