Search for Greek or Latin verbs that are in the imperative tense & find all instances of each

In regards to our discussion about the bible study software, I am wondering if your software could do something for me.

I use the “blue letter bible” website frequently for research and Greek and Hebrew words.  With that website I can do the following
1)    Find a verse and then look up the original Greek or Hebrew
2)    Can take the original Greek or Hebrew word and find out all the verses that use that particular word
3)    If it is a verb, I can find the verb tense for that one word in that one verse

What I would like to do, is for a Bible software to search the Greek and provide a single list of all the verbs that are in the Imperative tense, and provide the English translation as well as Bible verses that go with the Imperative verbs on the list.  I’d like it to do the same thing for the Hebrew verbs.  Is that possible or is it asking too much?.  I’d like it to do the same thing for the Hebrew verbs.

1) Find a verse and then look up the original Greek or Hebrew

Easy - if the Bible has an interlinear (as many do, I use the ESV), you can get the manuscript underlying original language, lemma, morphology, Strong's. Louw-Nida, etc. See picture -

2) Can take the original Greek or Hebrew word and find out all the verses that use that particular word

Sure - just right click on the word I highlighted in the first example, and do Bible Wordy Study - you can see in the upper right corner it's used 43 times, and you click on each word in the ring and see the verses it is used in. See picture --

3) If it is a verb, I can find the verb tense for that one word in that one verse

You can't see it because of the way Print Screen works, but in this picture if I just hover over the VAAN, you will see a bubble that says "Verb, Aorist, Active, Infinitive". You can also bring up original languages bibles and see it there too --

I’d like it to do the same thing for the Hebrew verbs.

Same capability exists for Hebrew -

This is simplicity itself though I'm not sure precisely which of two possibilities interest you. If you are interested in findig all imperatives in the OT or NT, the morphological search can do that easily by selecting a Hebrew text and entering "@V?V" or for the NT selecting the NA27 and entering "@V??M" The prompts displayed when you enter the "@" will guide you. If you wish to find a specific word in the imperative, enter the lemma for the word (you can find an example of the word then double-click to bring up the lexical form and copy that) then enter the information above.

What I would like to do, is for a Bible software to search the Greek and provide a single list of all the verbs that are in the Imperative tense, and provide the English translation as well as Bible verses that go with the Imperative verbs on the list.

Welcome [:D]

My favorite Logos 4 feature is visual filter highlighting. Wiki Extended Tips for Visual Filters has => Examples of visual filters that includes screen shots showing Logos Greek Morphology visual filter highlighting in appropriately tagged Greek and English resources. In my visual filters, imperative verbal mood has bold red font with yellow outline for an "on fire" appearance:

The Rejoice background color shows present tense. My visual filters add images for various kinds of conjunctions plus verbal voice. Philippians 4:8 has a present tense, middle voice, imperative mood with plural whose appearance combines four visual filter highlighting search results.

Thankful for a forum threads => Visual Filter for what to do and not do

Thread => commands may be interesting since a number of Biblical commands do not use an imperative mood.

Keep Smiling [:)]
