within Logos it seems to default to "active"….whereas eimi has no voice and the option to select none is not there.
"Most standard Greek morphologies classify εἰμί as using active voice endings where voice is marked, though traditional school grammars often downplay or ignore “voice” for εἰμί because it is copular and intransitive. There is a strand of description in pedagogical and popular materials that effectively treats εἰμί as “voice-less” for practical purposes, but explicit claims that it has no voice at all are more informal positions than a formal category in major reference morphologies."
well, thats interesting.. I'm just in the middle… at koineguide.com is where the greek guru there said; "
That can be confusing for sure, but eimi technically doesn’t have voice. “None” is the right answer for the voice field for every instance of eimi! 8)" i challenged him due to what LOGOS show me. EVEN give screen shots..
Not a "greek guru" but a person who may know Greek extremely well but doesn't know their linguistics/grammar/syntax - but is sufficient gullible to have accepted what they were taught without asking if it were the majority position.

I'm not sure this will ever happen, but it's my dream. When I'm studying a passage, I love using the exegetical and passage guides and have edited mine to show different categories of commentaries. I typically work through these and will go to each, copy the relevant passage and paste it into a document where I can see…

The two license levels in Logos for the Church subscriptions have been compared to Logos Pro and Logos Plus. If so, do these licenses have access to the quarterly video courses offered by Logos? Further, if this is the case, is there a way for a church to select a specific video course? For instance, if a church is…
