What you are trying to do is quite difficult!
Two problems with your specific search:
- You need INTERSECTS and not INTERSECT
- You are assuming that all the terms intersect with the lemma adelphos - which I don't believe is the case
One of the examples of this type of action is Gal 5:13, and examining that verse shows that the sense is "to serve (servanthood)" and it is a directive
Combining those gives the search string <Sense = to serve (servanthood)> INTERSECTS {Section <SpeechAct = Oblig: Direct>} which might provide some pointers to get started.
Please help constructing this search ...

Hello everyone and thank you so long for your help.
I need to get all texts in the NT where people, the faithful, brothers and sisters, as urged/commanded to help one another, to be servants of one another.
I constructed this with no results:
(serve, serving, help, <Lemma = lbs/el/δοῦλος>, <Sense servant>) INTERSECT <Lemma = lbs/el/ἀδελφός>
Please advise where I made a mistake or what I need to change. (This is by far the most difficult search I have ever done.)
Thank you, Brothers and Sisters.

Thanks Graham.
I was using "believers" in Acts 1:15 to use as a sort of "collective" for christians. Believers was the word used for adelfoi.
I need to learn much, much more about using the different search terms, like what you have used {Section <SpeechAct = Oblig: Direct>}
I understand the left side of the search term but to the right, {Section <SpeechAct = Oblig: Direct>} I want to search for tutorials on this. What is it called so I can search on this? I have just searched on Wiki.Logos and SpeechAct was not found.
Thank you once again. Deon

I haven't seen much on this - https://community.logos.com/forums/t/129247.aspx is the announcement and the post does point to the associated documentation.

Thanks Graham. I see that I have a lot to learn.

Actually, INTERSECT works just fine:

Proximity search idea is Who near What: e.g. Who (Person OR reflexive pronoun) WITHIN 5 WORDS What (Love, Care, Honor have many Senses so this search could be expanded): (Sense search does not have = so children of Sense term are included in search results)
Keep Smiling [:)]
