In my Bible study group I go through the story of David with the special focus what David thought about the single stories. Therefore I look in his psalms. Is it possible to limit a Bible search on David’s Psalms?
Hello everyone, thank you for your prompt and, above all, helpful responses! The combination of the Psalm Explorer and the verse list is brilliant. It works so well, solves my problem, and has taught me a lot. Thank you very much!
Yes you can limit a search to any group of Psalms you want
Below when setting up a search I specified a set of Psalms and saved it as David's Psalms. Now, anytime I want to use this constrained search I just select that range
(I'm not suggesting the Psalms I selected are Psalms of David but just illustrating how to do it)
If any of this doesn't make sense, or doesn't address your requirement, please advise.
Hi @Stephan Thelen ,
Here's a way to achieve the results, there maybe a better way though that I'm not aware of. I just finished typing this reply & the page refreshes with Graham's solution so I think that method is fewer steps. Thanks Graham, I'm gonna look into "save as range" feature now, TIL ☺️.
2. Select all the text from result.
3. Open Passage List → Add → Select … clipboard → Save as Psalms of David.
4. Open Search → Bible → Choose "Psalms of David" at the All Passages.
You can also create a "Passage List" with all of the Psalms attributed to David. You can then use the search function to search that passage list. After clicking the selection where the yellow arrow points, in the text box begin typing in the name of your passage list and it should populate as selection below. Click on it to narrow the search to that passage list. In this case I named the newly created passage list "Psalms of David."
Passage List is found under Documents —> New. To create the passage list efficiently you can type in Ps 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 etc., using a comma and a space between each number. Or, better, figure out a way to paste it in.
If you need to find which Psalms are attributed to David or narrow the selection further you can use the Psalms Explorer found under the tools section
@Michelle Thanks for showing a way to paste the list of David's Psalms from the Psalm Explorer into the passage list document👍️
PTL, you're welcome, thank you, I just saw I missed a step haha 🤭
Step 2. Select all the text from result + Copy (CTRL+C / Command+C)

My pastor taught me how he prepares sermons and the steps he takes to get to Sunday. I took his workflow and recreated it in Logos, but I want to be able to pull in my tools and resources into it. How can I improve the workflow? See the link. https://flshare.net/n79ad5
I frequently import Sermon and Podcast transcripts into Logos as a personal book. I would like to edit the .docx file before its imported to optimize its searchability. Is there any additional threads, documentation, training, tips, or tricks on this other than what's in Logos Help?
Probably simple enough Q[s] for any Logos Master: What corpus of resources does Power Lookup [PL] display (and method and extent of enlarging it)? So, Google AI suggests "choose Power Lookup to see definitions from your dictionaries or references to that text." And a Logos article is similarly suggestive of a broad search…
Can some one help me with the syntax involved in writing a rule for library collections. I watched the video several times, and can mimic the example in the video, but when I try to develop another rule, nothing happens. I guess what I need to understand is exactly what elements are necessary to write the rule and where do…
I have thought about this but wanted to finally ask. I am looking to purchase a specific book or set of books and they are offered in a Logos 8, 9, 10, and 2026 libraries, is there any difference in the books themselves at this point, or will they all integrate with my current Logos 48 and work the same way? Also, is there…
