A common request on the forums is for a parallel listing of prophets and kings (Timeline/Chart help - Faithlife Forums (logos.com), Index search (?) - Faithlife Forums (logos.com), searching - Faithlife Forums (logos.com),Clause Search - find out what prophet's served during the reign of Uzziah of Judah - Faithlife Forums (logos.com) . . . )
If data on date or overlap with other people were added, an interactive built from the dataset documented here Brannan, Rick. 2017. Prophets, Priests, Regents, and Judges Dataset Documentation. Bellingham, WA: Faithlife. would fill this need.

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."

    I agree. I think an interactive timeline focused on these persons would be helpful. The timeline itself is too busy with other things to be an effective teaching tool for this data. Searching the library for charts is okay, but the translation from print-to-digital-to-PowerPoint doesn't always end up with satisfactory layouts. I ended up making a Microsoft Publisher document with the timeline like I wanted, and I supplement it sometimes with related events/people for the context of what I'm teaching. It would be nice to have something workable in Logos natively.
