Creating a Visual Filter for Various Hebrew Verb Conjugations

David Wyant

Does anyone know create a visual filter that highlights various Hebrew verb conjugations? I would like to be able to highlight all wayyiqtol verb forms in blue, yiqtols in gold, qatals in red, imperatives in pink, participles in green, and infinitives in purple. Thanks in advance!

Welcome David,

The Search syntax is explained at https://wiki.logos.com/New_Search_HELP#Morph_Search and

VF's are explained at https://wiki.logos.com/Visual_Filter#Morphology_Visual_Filter

Open Documents menu and select  Visual Filter from the New button.

I set up  wayyiqtol as the first Verb entry after typing into the Search box and selecting Verb.

In the screen shot, I first entered and then selected Verb. Now select Yiqtol under the TAM heading.

Click in the Formatting box and select the Foreground colour. Yellow might approximate Gold, else you will have to set up your own Highlighting Palette and create a Gold style (ask if necessary).

Note that you have to select your bible and the Logos Hebrew Morphology. A translation could be used, provided you have the Reverse Interlinear for Hebrew.

EDIT: make sure you select the Filter from the Visual filters menu in your bible's toolbar.

I have visual filters set up based up both Anderson-Forbes (older) and Logos Hebrew (more prevalent in newer resources). My color choices are from Dr. Coakley at Moody Theological Seminary.
