Hello,

I'm beginning a study on Ps 1 and pulled up Factbook to get information before diving into commentary study.

Can anyone explain the EVENTS dropdown and how it pertains to Psalms? It is a list of events from Creation

to "The temple is dedicated" in 1 Kings.

All the other sections in FB are relevant AFAIK.

    I assume you got onto the article "Book of Psalms".

    Faithlife should comment on that. But you can use the last Respond section to voice your concern.

    Thanks Dave.

    This would be a great section if these were all referenced  or alluded to events in the Psalms and the scriptural

    reference pointed to the actual Psalm (chapter) and verse.

    This is simply rolling up all the entries for the individual psalms. What is always shown in this section is the narration of the event itself. Click on the event. Look in the Passages section and you will find the psalm(s) that refer to the event. This behavior is consistent across all books not unique to the psalms.

    MJ,

    Now I see how this works. Thank you for the explanation.

    BTW, look at FB for Joel, no Event section, of course.

    Ah, but there is one for Jonah. But put on your cloak and dagger and whisper very, very quietly "I found Logos' dirty little secret ... missing coding and/or interpretive coding ". Or somewhat more seriously, because we do not have the documentation on the Bible Knowledge entries, we can't check the documentation to find the rules used for generating the tags.
