How can I use Logos to find different variant readings in the Gospel of John? I do not want to have to count them in the NA28.

    Use the textual variants section of the exegetical guide.

    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."

    Use varunit:*  to count them in Metzger's Textual Commentary on the GNT or the Lexham Textual Notes on the Bible. Restrict the range to John.

    It will take a few minutes, but you get a count of the words involved as well as the number of passages (articles).

    Use the Search panel - Dave gave you a search argument.
