How to Open Multiple Verses at once?

Greetings. How do I open multiple verses in the Logos Desktop app?

For example, is there a way to search for the following verses, Matt.11:25-27; John 5:45–47 at the same time, in Logos? I can do this in Accordance. However, whenever I search for multiple verses in Logos, it won't search for them. It says, "No results. Check your spelling, or try broadening your query." I say, no, that is not right. I know you do many things, so why not do this wonderful thing? And so because of this issue, I had to run to Accordance for help.

Please let me know.
Thank you,
Joel

1.The Search tool needs bible:"Matthew 11:25–27" OR bible:"John 5:45–47", but it will not open those verses in a bible, which is what I suspect you are asking?

2. Create a Passage List for those verses and use Open All to display them in your bible.

Click the bible version ( e.g.. ESV) to select another bible.

Yes, thats definitely a lacking feature. In Accordance it is so easy to do.

Thanks Dave. But this seems to be more a turn around than a feature.

Does using an Inline Search provide what you are looking for?

Yours looks different than mine.

Graham has two-column display showing, while most people use no-column display, i.e. continuous scrolling.

Note that we both use Surface Text, otherwise Logos would also show hits in the footnotes where the passages are referenced. The search works without quotes, too, so in my opinion not a bit more difficult than that other software.

er..ah... I find a Passage list is easy to do... I dislike the inline search method but understand why some might prefer it.
