DSS Word Study BUG-maybe

Please help

Following the video here; https://www.logos.com/how-to/study-the-dead-sea-scrolls I have found a couple of issues.

I own the The Dead Sea Scrolls Bible (Biblical DSS), The Lexham Dead Sea Scrolls Hebrew-English Interlinear Bible, The DSS database and The Dead Sea Scrolls Study Edition.

I am not doing this search using the DSS Sectarian, as the video shows, I don't own it.

Starting with the English word "hate" in Mat. 5:43, right click, select BWS, report loads, select translation ring for the hebrew word for "hate", click the Hebrew word to open a new BWS report. Good so far.

Problem #1, in the new report that is generated, at the top, I have to change the setting from "All Passages" to "Old Testament" before the Biblical DSS will appear as an option in the Textual Search section, otherwise only the Lexham Hebrew Interlinear shows up. It seems to me that "All Passages" should cover "Old Testament" too.

Problem #2, Once I am able to click Biblical DSS to invoke a morph search it generates a report. In the video, the presenter shows selecting from the "Add Translation" menu the Dead Sea Scrolls Study Edition-English , which I also own. When I do the same it will not load it into the report. I've tried loading other interlinear/RI Bibles too but the add translations doesn't load anything next to the Hebrew text.

I am on Windows 10, Logos Bible Software 9.6 SR-2 9.6.0.0024

Am I doing something wrong or are these bug a boo's?

Thank You in advance.

Not sure if Michael in the following thread may be having a similar issue

This is strange - I can't reproduce this

The presenter selects the sectarian search and then adding in the DSSSE - this resource looks at non-biblical resources (which explains why results are shown on the video) but it means it won't match any of the results you find when doing the biblical search

When I try using the NRSV it does load alongside the DSS resource

Can you post a screenshot (use the paperclip icon) to show what you are seeing?

Hi Graham!

I think I figured out why I couldn't get the other English Bibles to show. If I just click on the NASB in the screen shot, the drop down closes but does not open the resource. If I hit Enter instead the Bible loads. So thanks for having me go back through again.

I also realized why the Biblical Dead Sea Scrolls didn't show up at first. It apparently wasn't fully downloaded when I tried it, but it works fine now.

I also learned how to post a screenshot. Now if I can just remember all I just learned.[:|][:D]

Thanks a bunch for your help!

Yes - that can be a bit sensitive - sometimes I need to press Enter twice

I also realized why the Biblical Dead Sea Scrolls didn't show up at first. It apparently wasn't fully downloaded when I tried it, but it works fine now.

That would do it

I also learned how to post a screenshot.

Excellent - glad you got it all working.
