A few questions:

1. When using the Greek text, when I hold down a word, where does the lexical information come from?

2. Is there a way to set it so that holding down a word will bring me to the BDAG or HALOT dictionary on the other split screen? 

3. If not, how do I do a word search by selecting BDAG as the search resource? Right now, it gives me a limited list of resources to search, which I find really odd. 

 

Thanks!

    Welcome!

    When you hold down on a word and the lexical info comes up (it's from the morphology) you should have s Bible Word Study option. Tap the Bible Word Study, it should open up in the split screen. As long as they are prioritized in your library on the desktop then they should be linked in the Bible Word Study. When you open BDAG or HALOT they will open in the top screen, when finnished use a 2 finger swipe to get back to your Greek/Hebrew text. Hope that helps!
