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.

Could you make this AI icon a button. Ctrl + click would type out that suggested question text for us and run the search. Alt + click would generate the next random "question of the day". Simple left click would open an AI space. Could you make this AI bot have a Logos tool. A workspace, as the big AI companies are doing.…
This is an incredibly small suggestion and is arguably inconsequential, and it's not that the current note icons are insufficient at all, but I have found that it helps to have note icons which relate to relevant notebooks. So for example, I have a notebook which has prophecies fulfilled in Christ or allusions to Him and I…
Markdown is an incredibly easy and efficient way to format documents without requiring any mouse clicks. Sermon builder formatting is too slow, especially with adding headings since they can only be added from the pull down menu. Markdown would be a wonderful addition.
I know that we could previously do Hebrew vowel searches with Logos 3 and ever since Logos 4 that feature has been removed, but PLEASE bring this feature back with the Logos Max subscription. This feature has been requested for years to no avail with the Logos development department for some reason but we would love to…
