Why does this search do this?

Mike Tourangeau

I have made a passage list of various passages on the scandal of the cross and search this: " scandal WITHIN  {PassageList Cross Scandal}" It returns all footnotes.....

I eventually figured I had to search:  " scandal  AND  {PassageList Cross Scandal}" and I get surface text.

Is this the proper way to use this "passage list search?"

Is this the proper way to use this "passage list search?"

If want to search *within* those bible passages you need to use the Passage List as a Range:-

e.g.

Find 'Lord' within selected passages for the Hebrew word 'Yahweh'.

I eventually figured I had to search:  " scandal  AND  {PassageList Cross Scandal}" and I get surface text.

This will find occurrences of 'scandal' AND any of the bible references in the passage list. It won't be successful in a Bible and has marginal value in non-bibles unless you change it to scandal  NEAR  {PassageList Cross Scandal}
