Facet: Propositional Outlines/Semantic features
From Verbum Help:
[quote]These Semantic Feature labels ship as part of the Propositional Outlines (Old and New Testament) datasets. They are used to reformat the Bible text into a propositional outline using the Propositional Outline visual filter.
• Category ~ <PropositionalOutline ...> — Is the name of the kind of proposition.[1]

Not a label. However, despite the overlap with Discourse analysis and High Definition analysis, this coding is all new.

Note that the Bible Browser switches to the Propositional Outline format when a term from that facet is chosen. Also note that the third search term is not highlighted in the results. “Came” and “settled” are highlighted for the implied subject of Abraham.

Search
Verbum Help has yet to be corrected from its erroneous claim that Propositional Outlines cannot yet be searched. (Yes, I am annoyed with the lack of QA on the last update of Help including errors previously reported and uncorrected.)
