The resource Black, David Alan, Katharine G. L. Barnwell, and Stephen H. Levinsohn. Linguistics and New Testament Interpretation : Essays on Discourse Analysis. Nashville, Tenn.: Broadman Press, 1992 on page 174 has a section entitled "The imperatival infinitive" and when I highlight this section title to make a note about it in my note file, the link in the note is entitled, "John 1:17"

This is pretty outer space weird. The passage "John 1:17" does not pop up when you hover over it in the note file, but is deceiving just being there and no idea why it does that. The author is not named John (of the book or the section) and this scripture is not referenced anywhere in this section because it is a section on the discourse features of Romans 12.

What's the deal? Can we fix this?

    I duplicated this issue; it occurs in every heading all the way back to P156, where John 1:17 was used as a heading...apparently, that just got format painted into each of the subsequent headings.  The text needs a heavy edit to repair this...IMHO

    Report it as a typo, please. It may be picked up by Logos here. It will be picked up if sent as a typo.

    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."
