Language conveys and interprets what is in one's thinking, as well as what makes up one's identity. Language evolves throughout time, and it is our role as communicators to assist people. How can I find when attributed speech is used in the biblical text? Both direct speech and indirect speech purport to report the speech or thoughts of an original speaker. Some writers use the terms reported direct speech and reported indirect speech. How can i find this in the biblical text using Logos?

    IIRC Logos has only explicitly code direct speech. Check the documentation.

    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."

    speaker:God IN speaker:Abraham —> finds speech attributed to God within text spoken by Abraham.
