Studying Cross References between 2 books

I'd like to explore which verses in Isaiah have a cross reference to a gospel. Is there a way to create a search which shows this? Or a visual filter etc? I remember finding a video about how to search cross references but I can't seem to find it again and my attempts have failed. I tried searching Isaiah ESV for <Matt -John>

Any help much appreciated.

An example of the kind of thing I'm looking for:

Isaiah 7:14 (Prophecy: Virgin birth) “14 Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: the virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel.”

Fulfilled in Matthew 1:22-23 - "22 All this took place to fulfil what the Lord had said through the prophet: 23 ‘The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel’ (which means ‘God with us’)."

גַּם־חֹשֶׁךְ֮ לֹֽא־יַחְשִׁ֪יךְ מִ֫מֶּ֥ךָ וְ֭לַיְלָה כַּיּ֣וֹם יָאִ֑יר כַּ֝חֲשֵׁיכָ֗ה כָּאוֹרָֽה

    Hi John,

    Do you have access to the interactive New Testament Use of the Old Testament? If you do does it fulfill your needs?

    Isaiah 7:14 (Prophecy: Virgin birth) “14 Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: the virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel.”

    Try intertext:source:"Is 7:14" 

    Or you might find the New Testament Use of the Old Testament Interactive helpful

    Thanks, its a good start but it isn't broad enough. I'm looking for any type of cross reference. E.g. just an allusion.

    The problem with the above is its just a picture. You can't step through and read each one to think about it.

    The interactive presents allusions, echoes, citations and quotations.  Graham would know the syntax necessary for a general search.

    I see, its better than I realised. I've got it showing me just Isaiah and Matthew now.

    You can specify types of cross references - here I'm showing all the options

    intertext:(source:"Is 7:14" AND relationship:("echo" OR "quotation" OR "allusion" OR "citation"))

    If you are interested in a subset of these, just remove the others from the search string

    Thanks so much for this help!

    My reward to be of assistance! Would welcome Graham's posting syntax to report allusion, echo, citation and quotation. Edit: I see Graham beat me to my request. Thank you!
