Logos4 could learn a lot from Libronix3

This is just one of those 'missing hubcap' problems in Logos4. So no need to comment etc unless you're just absolutely interested.

While reading my new "Stone and Dung, Oil and Spit' download, I ran across 'scroll of the courtyard' being clean to the hands. All others are unclean per Mishnah Kelim 15.6. If you're curious 'scroll of the courtyard' is Ezra, and so I decided to search this phrase in Logos4, it being so much faster than Libronix3.

And indeed, it was fast; it found a single instance in the Mishnah. Clicking on that took me to Kelim 1.1. Hmmm. The actual Stone/Dung entry takes me to Kelim 15.6. So obviously the L4 search is the issue. He can show me the correct snippet; he just can't actually take me there.

So I queried Libronix3 search to see what he would come up with. He took much longer, also finding the sole Mishnah entry. Clicking on it took me to Kelim 15.6. Correct.

Thank you Libronix!! Great job! 'All 4 hubcaps'..

A new resource, right?

Just how did you query L3 when recent releases aren't in L3 format?

It's not new ... it was in a collection that was broken out a few days ago. I'm glad Logos is still selling 'the good stuff'.

Although the author is an archaeologist, the book actually seems to be contrasting the rabbinical writings (Mishnah/Talmud) with the Qumran literature, plus the 'digs', placing the NT in the middle. She brings up a lot of small details that are worth thinking about. Today's discussion is on whether John the Baptist would have cooked his locust (one dynamic) while insisting on 'honey of the field' (another dynamic).

I guess I didn't buy that collection. It would seem that you might have a valid point then. I was going to say that if you had entered "Kelim 15.6" into the location bar of the Mishnah in L4 it would also have gone to the correct location, but apparently that isn't how you got there.

Logos 4 tip: click the text with the orange background (in search results) to jump directly to that location in the resource.

Wow, thanks Bradley! I would never have guessed that. Your interface design normally uses a colored text markup. Okay!

Of course, now I'm really mystified why the resource title is different. I guess some people probably want the page that's 8 pages back from their search. I notice L3 had the orange text too but not clickable. So that means in the new design, someone had an idea.
