Strange Key Passages results in factbook for "Trust in God"
Why does the Key Passages section in Factbook on Trust in God return most passages from deuterocanonical books?

Sadly, results for culture:"Trust in God" occur mostly in the Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha and it includes faith and belief in two reference encyclopedias and the single Bible reference of Gen 15.6. Yet term:(trust OR sense:="to believe (trust)") NEAR person:God shows there are many other Bible references that could be included (particularly in Psalms).

The second search, however, includes many negatives that aren't likely candidates. Unfortunately, polarity is available only in a clause diagram.
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."

But it "shows" many likely candidates. It wasn't intended as a query to curate the candidates.

I look at the results and assume that as a cultural theme it is concentrated in the later literature rather than the earlier literature i.e. I consider it informative rather than problematic.

"Limitations
Currently there are a small number of Cultural Concepts that have yet to be annotated in the Bible. Because our team of annotators continued to create new concepts as they worked through the various texts, some concepts were created after the Bible was annotated. For example, as we worked through some of the Second Temple Period texts we realized that TREE OF LIFE was an important cultural concept both within and outside of the Bible and should be annotated. Issues such as this are being corrected in an effort to improve the quality of our Cultural Concepts dataset."

Hi Graham, thanks for reporting this. I'm not sure if this is an instance of a concept that was created after we tagged the Bible, but there's a good chance this was a concept that was added later in the process. I'm looking into this to see what additional annotations we might need for this concept.
