A New Readers Lexicon of the Greek New Testament
Help! I purchased this book and it is showing up in my resources; however, when I prioritized it in a certain position in my list of lexicons, it will not appear with my other lexicons on my word-by-word section of the passage guide. Can anyone think of a reason why? Thanks!

I figured it out; although, I wouldn't say I like the answer. This resource is keyed or coded by verse and not by Greek word. I wish that Logos would change that so that it is coded by Greek word and not by verse. This is a lexicon, so it should be coded by Greek word and not verse. How am I supposed to make the most out of this resource? The only way that I see is to keep the book open as part of my workspace and link it to my preferred bible. Since it is not coded by Greek words, it will not appear in any word-by-word section. This is an inconvenient and silly way to code this resource, Logos. Please consider a change. But in the meantime, any help that someone can be so that I can make the most out of this would be great.

Hi Michael,
I looked at the "look inside" on the Logos website and the table of contents is also broken out by Bible book. It appears that this is what the book was intended to do so the "reader" could reference this resource while reading the Biblical text.
I have collection called "Translation and Grammar Commentaries" and I include it in several of my guides. I would suggest you try including this as a section in your exegetical guide so as you are reviewing your Word by Word you can also review this resource. I have a screenshot of other such commentaries I include in this collection and it's inclusion in one of my guides.
I hope this helps. Another option is to include the collection in the Cited By tool.

I don't think they can ... each greek word is in multiple locations. The bad judgment is in the assigned title. And Logos' mealy-mouthed description (being apologetically excused by 'its the piblisher'). I can't imagine this being an improvement over ab RI, or Word By Word. Maybe a beginning greek student?

DMB is correct regarding the resource. Logos provides similar information, often better information in their guides. The book probably had more value if you are using paper rather than in a digital library like Logos.
