What's the morph search coding to highlight genitives in the Greek NT?

    Case (for Articles, Adjectives, Nouns, Pronouns, and Verbs)

    • A – Accusative
    • D – Dative
    • G – Genitive
    • N – Nominative
    • V – Vocative

    So morph.g:NG should work for nouns?

    Maybe I'm not giving it enough time….these VFs are slow.

    Next question…while I wait for the above to kick in…is there a code I can use for highlighting a whole genitive phrase/clause? I.e., if I have 'the children of God,' what do I need to put in the search box so the VF will highlight 'of God' rather than just the proper noun?

    This is a challenge because Greek doesn't work like English here…the article and the noun can be Genitive Case but the preposition cannot (and the 'of' is rarely in the text anyway).

    …and yes, waiting did get the code to kick in…the VF is really, really slow today. I may have caught it on coffee break.

    You can speed the filter up by applying it to less scripture when appropriate e.g. if studying Mark set the filter to only apply to Mark.

    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."
