searching a hebrew phrase
hi everyone, I am frustrated and could use some help,
I asked about two years ago... got some answers but still struggling. I am looking for a simple way to search a hebrew phrase. I was used to highlight a few words in Bibleworks and click - that was all. Now, I am not able to do the same in Logos and I am very unhappy.
To give you an example, in LHI I highlighted the words "a woman of valor" in Ruth 3:11 (in hebrew, no interlinear) and clicked search... results I got are Ruth 3:11 and Proverbs 31:3... while neither Proverbs 31:10 nor the other appearance in Proverbs showed up.
Is there an easy way to do this? I am NOT looking for other ways if possible... no one word and then seeing what words it is connected with, not writing some crazy this+something=before... after... just a simple two words next to each other search in hebrew - can this be done???
If anyone can help, I will be grateful. Thanks

Hi Vladislav
What platform are you trying this on?
I’ve just done this - as an inline search - on iPad and got the results below

Thank you Graham for your quick reply... I have a Macbook, Logos 9... your results are exactly what I am looking for... how exactly did you do it?

ok, so I did the "inline" search and got the same results as you did, Any idea what it is that I got with the "search" button? Thank you for your quick help!
let me add a second question, searching where certain words appear together within two-three-four words... is there an easy way to do that?

Excellent

I don't know - when I tried just using the standard search I got the same results (this is on the web app, I don't access to my Mac at the moment)
Exactly how are you generating the search that gives different results?

Yes - put WITHIN n WORDS between the two search terms, such as אֵ֥שֶׁת WITHIN 4 WORDS חַ֖יִל
