Here you go:

I allow only Preposition and Conjunction otherwise you get nouns with 3 segment span. Compare results with 2 seg Span.

My initial search thought is Morph Search for Inifinitive Construct

morph.h:V?F???C

Next was searching Hebrew Cantillation (looking for way to filter first place)

cantillation:(name:Pashta AND rank:Duke AND type:Disjunctive)

Learned Morph search does not distinguish between Cantillation "A" and "B"

My next step would be a Syntax Search using Hebrew Cantillation (my initial attempt found 0 results).

Keep Smiling 😊

Thank you Keep Smiling for these examples. This particular search definitely has me stumped!

I can easily do this in another program but I can’t find a way to find the first word in a verse in Logos

Is there a way to search for sof-pasuq and then find the following word after that? it would have to cross verse boundaries

@Brian Leathers Same as Wayyiqtol Morph Query but different Verb.

Dave,

I tried several variations of the morph query and have come up empty. Not sure where I am going wrong.

Thanks Dave, that morph query worked:

thanks Dave. I found that if you remove the segment with preps and conjunctions, and change your search span to 1 segment, you can find an additional 9 ICs without prefixed conjunctions or preps.
