Another tip of the day (TOTD) series for Logos/Verbum 10. They will be short and often drawn from forum posts. Feel free to ask questions and/or suggest forum posts you'd like to see included. Adding comments about the behavior on mobile and web apps would be appreciated by your fellow forumites. A search for "L/V 10 Tip of the Day site:community.logos.com" on Google should bring the tips up.

This tip is based on the forum post: Visual Filter - Logos Forums

This is an example of using the Louw-Nida semantic domains for the New Testament to identify a group of words rather than specifying each of the words individually. Try this:

  • Upper left - open Louw, Johannes P., and Eugene Albert Nida. Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament: Based on Semantic Domains. New York: United Bible Societies, 1996. Find the semantic domain Louw-Nida numbers for place.
  • Lower left - in a search panel, build a Bible search for the Louw-Nida numbers
  • Upper right - copy the search argument into a Visual Filter
  • Lower right - turn the Visual Filter on in a Bible with a Reverse Interlinear

Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
