Reading Plan and Emphasis Markup

Stephen Koehn

Reading Plan: I would like the option to make a reading plan but not be confined to one translation over another. If I have a reading plan associated with the Bible, I would like to be able to start in ESV, for instance, but be able to "mark read" in any other version. I may start in the KJV and continue in another version and in order to keep my reading plan up to date, I have to go back and either mark read each section or check the boxes on the Logos desktop app.

 

Emphasis Markup/Notes. I appreciate that any notes that are associated with a verse are able to be associated with that verse in any Bible version. When I have a note for a specific word and not the whole verse it of course is only associated with the specific Bible version--the same with general emphasis markup. Is there a way to associate Emphasis Markup with the embedded Strong's number, rather than the English translation? Then in any Bible version that has embedded Strong's numbers will reflect the marked-up text. For example, the word "Πεπείσμεθα" in Hebrews 6:9 is translated "persuaded" in KJV, "feel sure" in the ESV, and "convinced" in NASB. I would like to highlight this word in the KJV because I want to expound on the meaning but not interrupt the notes I have on this particular verse, but have it be associated with "Πεπείσμεθα" rather than "persuaded" so that when I pull up the same verse in ESV or NASB, I see the same note or highlight, because it is associated with the Greek and not the English.  

 

Does that make sense?

This isn't currently possible. You should create a suggestion in the suggestions forum. [:)]

No. Some have suggested tying some highlights to lemmas connected through the reverse interlinear info. Currently, notes can only be tied to the reference, or the surface text (resource specific).
