What am I doing wrong in this? I type in Esarhaddon and I get one result found in 2kings 19:37, when in actuality, I should be seeing 3 results, for instance in 2kings 19:37, Ezra 4:2, and Isaiah 37:38.
Here's a screenshot…
"-" is your problem.
Try "person:Esarhaddon" or "Esarhaddon OR Esar-haddon"
Got it. Thank you Aaron for steering me straight on this. Very helpful.
I'd of assumed (incorrectly) that the little clock would fix it (narrow search vs broadened … .removal of dashes etc). Vs substituting letters (as an earlier post issue).
It is unique though, that the Logos Search will not pick up both spellings of Esarhaddon and Esar-haddon and list them, for example, we can do a search for God and list the search as god and it will pick up both, Gen 1:1 and Ex 7:1. Is there a particular reason why this is so?
person:Esarhaddon should pick up all spellings as it is looking for a Logos supplied tag. This works even across languages.
Looking for Esar-haddon without the tag requires a computer parsing routine that only recognizes common forms that work for many words e.g. it would recognize Esar-haddon's as the possessive is standard (actually I'm not sure how it handles proper nouns but the principle is correct). But alternative spellings are outside normal parsing rules.
Thank you M.J. Smith for your explanation. You are light years ahead of me, so I'm happy you and others are about to clarify things.
Per the title, I have some discussions like the one pictured 'muted,' yet there they are, right at the top of the list. So what does the mute button do, if it doesn't mute anything? Can we have a working mute button so that muted threads don't show up in our list, @Jason Stone (Logos) ?
John C Poitier's book, "The Invention of Inspiration . . . " explores the ancient (pre early 3rd century AD) meaning of theopneustia as in 2 Tim. 3:15-17. His conclusion is that the word meant "life giving", perhaps based originally on the creation story (God breathed into the form and it/he became a living person). He…
something changed so that I am unable to hear text to speech on the program that has on one side and ESV Bible on the other. I use the ctrl r to hear it. It works on the Truth for Today but not on the Bible side. I am not sure what changed, to cause that. Please help if possible. God Bless You.
I can change the versions that appear in the text comparison tool with no trouble. However, when I press F7 from my Bible, I do not get the versions I want to compare. How do I change the Bibles that appear when I press F7?
I have noticed that I can right click in the media tool and send that image to a sermon, word document or Power Point but cannot send it to the Bible Study Builder. Also it would be nice if the little icon in my Bible that indicates there is available media for that passage would also show up in the Mobile app
