I want to find a sentence containing both the words: godliness and being
I'd probably search 'godliness NEAR being' (without the quotes).
Okay, maybe with the quotes, like this: "godliness" NEAR "being"
When I ran a search without the quotes, I got other forms of the words (godly, be, etc). There's a probably a way to turn off matching all forms of the word in an inline search, but I have no idea how. When I search with quotes, I got only the actual words.
Oops … I should 'read'!
Hi @Roger Owen
Are you looking specifically for these two words to be in the same sentence?
I ask because the standard "search boundary" in Logos is the verse level.
Specifically those two words in the same sentence in the book, "Spiritual Disciplines For the Christian Life"
@Roger Owen
Is this what you were looking for?
I couldn't do an inline search because the book (revised edition) is in my print library. I have the first edition in Logos, and I did an inline search on that one but with no results.
The command using NEAR suggested by Yasmin may well be the best option - but please note it constrains results to where search terms are within 48 characters of each other.
Alternatively you could try WITHIN n WORDS and try different values of n
Logos doesn't support "within sentence searching" constraints.

I have a couple of books that always crash Logos. I read the books a while ago and created Notes while reading, but if I try to go to the Note anchors in the books in question, Logos crashes. Same if I try to open them in the Library. Is there anything I can do to fix this?
MPS teaches that we should put a one volume commentary that covers the whole Bible in the short cuts bar. That way we can easily access the commentaries without opening a guide. We can then go from one to another. I have JFB in the short cuts bar. I have an English and a Greek text opened to I John 2:5. I clicked on JFB…
