Can anyone tell me how I can do the following search?

I am studying the use of the construct infinitive with the preposition be and its meaning. Usually it is assigned a temporal meaning. However, I get the impression that at least in some cases an instrumental meaning would at least equally fit, as in my opinion is the case in Ezekiel 32.7.

I would need to identify texts in which we have a finite verb, followed by an construct infinitive with the preposition be.

Someone knows how to proceed excluding all kind of variants that also might be present in the Hebrew text, like objects etc.?

Thanks, Ferdinand.

    I think that the right syntax search is this:
