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)

Do you have any idea how frustrating it is to not be able to get simple information out of Logos e.g. which Bibles contain the Letter of Manasseh? the list should be a subset of the Bibles containing the Apocrypha. One can easily bulid a search to find them only to find one facing a chasm of how to get them from here to…
Here are three things I cannot do in footnotes of a Logos book. I cannot highlight text. I think I supposed to be able to because right-clicking brings up the context menu. But clicking on a highlight choice does not change anything. I cannot anchor my note to the footnote text. The "Add note" menu choice is not available.…
Hey All - I didn't realize it until after preaching last week, but Sermon Editor within Logos is not bringing in/preserving the capitalized LORD format of Yahweh from the ESV. When I'm in Sermon Builder and I type in a reference and hit CMD+Enter, the text is pulled in correctly. However, if I hit TAB it looses it's…
Ok don't laugh… This may be a dumb question. I am no biblical scholar, I am a 30 yr college student who just wants to understand how to read and study her Bible better. So my question is in BDAG it states "extended Definitions are in bold roman" and "English formal equivalents are in bold italic/normal italic." Then goes…
There was just two letters of a Hebrew word I wanted to highlight, but even when I select the two letters, and I can see when I right click that only the two letters are selected, it nonetheless highlights the entire word. Is there a way to prevent this and only highlight a letter? Also, if I do figure this out, how does…
