How To Find Words Used Only Once in the New Testament

Bill Fiess

Is there a way to find how many words are used only once in the NewTestament?

Hi Bill,

Go to Tools/Concordance. Once in the concordance select your NT Greek text and then enter 1 and 1 in the count box. See below:

Thanks, John. By the grace of God, I figured it out on my own. But do you know how to eliminate the Proper Nouns?

Bill if you go further down the list in the concordance you will see Indeclinable Types and Proper Nouns. There are 93 which you can isolate, but not exclude as far as I can tell.

However if you go to faithlife.com and find the Logos Visual Filters group and type Hapax you can download the filter and then possibly remove the 93 proper nouns or create a passage list and remove them.

Hope this helps

You can do that from the Documents menu in the App, by selecting Public, then type Hapax to select some to "Add to your docs". The Word Lists seem OK (the total word count should match that in Concordance). You can run a Search for  morph.g:XP  (Proper Nouns) and convert the result to a Word List  from the Panel menu. Then use Merge in the Hapax Word List to remove the Proper Nouns (using Difference).
