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 as should this Reading List within the application.

This tip is inspired by the forum post: TIP of the day: datatypes for searching that are Andersen-Forbes specific - Logos Forums and the fact that I keep losing the documentation of them.

This covers these resources:

  • The Hebrew Bible: Andersen-Forbes Analyzed Text. Francis I. Andersen; A. Dean Forbes, 2008.
  • Andersen, Francis I., and A. Dean Forbes. The Hebrew Bible: Andersen-Forbes Phrase Marker Analysis. Bellingham, WA: Logos Bible Software, 2009.
  • Andersen, Francis I., and A. Dean Forbes. A Systematic Glossary to the Andersen-Forbes Analysis of the Hebrew Bible. Logos Bible Software, 2006.

What is the Eissfeldt Hexateuch coding?

This coding embraces the Eissfeldt version of the Graf-Wellhausen documentary hypothesis. See ISBE. The categories as given on a shared visual filter:

  • Yahwist
  • Yahwist (Poetry)
  • "K" Genealogy
  • Elohist
  • Elohist (Poetry)
  • Covenant
  • Deuteronomist
  • Deuteronomist (Poetry)
  • Lay
  • Lay (Poetry)
  • Priestly
  • Priestly (Poetry)
  • Holiness
  • Begegnung
  • Begegnung (Poetry)
  • Tabernacle

A working visual filter:

What is the Mowinckle Jeremiah source coding?

This encodes similar information but for the Jeremiah materials. Logos wisely reused the Eissfeldt Hexateuch datatype for Mowinkle to ensure the maximum difficulty in finding this feature. The coding from a shared visual filter includes:

  • A source
  • A source (poetry)
  • B source
  • C source
  • C source (poetry)
  • D source

A visual filter that works:

What is the Andersen-Forbes genre coding?

Here with very little prodding Eli provided the new values. Thank you Eli.

What is Andersen Forbes semantic domain coding?

This is actually partially documented in the Andersen-Forbes Glossary document:

For substantives:

For verbs:

Are there any other undocumented Andersen Forbes datatypes in Logos?

Well, this post excludes any morphological and syntax coding but it covers all the Andersen Forbes datatypes I've notice in the Context Menu. The Context Menu is the primary documentation of the existence and values of these datatypes.

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."
