Source for Literary Type section in Passage Guide

The verse groupings in the Literary Typing section of the Passage Guide in Logos Max are not explicitly sourced from a single, specific resource in the way that, say, a commentary or lexicon might be cited. Instead, they are derived from a combination of data and analysis developed by the team at Faithlife (the parent company of Logos Bible Software) and integrated into the Logos ecosystem. The Literary Typing feature relies on the underlying tagging and categorization of biblical texts according to literary genres, which is then linked to definitions in the Lexham Glossary of Literary Types.The Lexham Glossary of Literary Types itself is a proprietary resource created by Logos, designed to classify and define the literary forms found in Scripture—such as narrative, poetry, prophecy, parable, epistle, etc. The verse groupings you see in the Literary Typing section are likely the result of Logos’s internal methodology, which involves analyzing the text of the Bible and segmenting it into units based on shifts in genre or literary style. This process is informed by biblical scholarship, linguistic analysis, and the expertise of the Logos team, rather than being directly lifted from a single external resource like a specific commentary or study Bible.While I don’t have access to an official statement pinpointing an exact source (Logos doesn’t publicly document the precise algorithm or dataset for this feature), it’s reasonable to conclude that the groupings are a product of Logos’s own tagging system, possibly refined over time with input from resources in their vast library—like scholarly works on biblical genres or rhetorical criticism—combined with computational analysis of the text. The linkage to the Lexham Glossary suggests that the definitions and classifications are standardized within Logos’s framework, but the verse-by-verse or section-by-section delineation is likely a unique output of their software’s design.If you’re looking for a more definitive answer, you might need to reach out to Logos support or consult their official documentation/forums, as the exact process isn’t fully transparent in public-facing materials. That said, the feature is a practical tool meant to reflect widely accepted literary distinctions in biblical studies, tailored to enhance the user’s understanding of the text’s structure and style.
