Hi all and thanks again for your help.

I have discovered many features in Logos which I didn't even could exist. And now I maybe pushing it a bit.

Logos 8: Base Package Library

How do I add to my Passage Guide results, what the early Church Fathers said about the passage I am studying? I'm sure it is possible but don't know how to include it into the results of the Passage Guide. (Hope I make sense.)

Thanks. Deon

    1. Look in the Ancient Literature section especially the Apostolic Fathers and Church Fathers subsections
    2. Look in the Catholic Topical Index section especially the Ecclesiastical Writers subsection.
    3. Make a collection of the Church Father volumes that are tagged as commentaries; add a Commentary Section selecting the new collection.
    4. Hide all the modern stuff (post 1120) and .... oops, just joking

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

    Deon, it's worth noting that the section will show all the links the software knows about the passage whether or not you have the resource in question.

    Hover your cursor over any of the links to see if you have the linked resource - if you get a popup you do and can click through to read it, if you don't get a popup you don't have that particular resource.

    Thanks Graham.

    I have just noticed that I only have some of the sources. For now it will do. I'm currently working on Matt 14:2-12 and would have liked to so what some of the Church Fathers wrote about the piece.

    Thank you to you and MJ for your assistance. You have help me a lot over the past couple of days. I learn as I work.

    God bless.
