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: Verses cross referenced in a particular passage - Logos Forums

I suspect your cross-references will not be as complete as those provided by Logos which come in three parts:

  • The Cross-references section of the Passage Guide which includes traditional cross-references - in the top section by links to cross-reference books and in the bottom section by a list of cross-references from all your Bibles containing them.
  • The Intertextuality tool, including that in the Bible Book explorer that includes all the identified intertextual relationships
  • The Important Passages section of the Passage Guide which draws on commentaries, lexicons etc to pull in parallel passages, shared cultural concepts, shared figurative language, shared people/places/things, shared senses, similar commands, similar questions, discussed together in commentaries or lexicons ...

They remain separate as often one only wants particular relationships, but you can always use a passage list to combine then into a single comprehensive list.

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."
