Use bible text only in a concordance?

Hi all! Doing something I've never done before: I've created a complete concordance of NASB 20.

I want to show the results for 1 Samuel 2, specifically the text only (not footnotes or anything like that) so I've saved that as a search.

I have Field:Bible Text chosen which is what I think removes everything but the actual text?

It shows me a result of 517 words (I've also checked "Combine all word forms", "Omit common stop words", and "Omit numbers").

Am I doing it right? Just so I know for future reference…

Yours in Inductive Joy, Carmen 😍

(PS. the ability to do this, even while still doing a paper Bible Study is why I LOOOOOOOOVE Logos!)

    Hi Carmen,

    There is a Concordance tool in tools. It allows you to limit your results by passage. Here is what I got using the ESV for 2 Sam 2. If you were using the OL, then I would run it on one of the Hebrew texts.
