Big Problem with ESV New Testament Reverse Interlinear
I find that it is virtually impossible to use the reverse interlinear to study nouns that are preceded by definite articles in the text. When you select "lemma" as the search target, the definite article is the selection! There is no way to separate the noun from its article in the reverse interlinear. The two words are always given as a single listing or citation. In Greek, as I'm sure you know, the definite article is used for emphasis or just as an author's stylistic device over and over again. Can someone address this issue and SEPARATE THE DEFINITE ARTICLE FROM THE NOUN in the listings? Thank you.

Thomas,
As this screen shot demonstrates there are two 'Lemma' panels for the chosen noun. You need to choose the Lemma for the noun (the lower one) rather than the one for the article (the upper one) and you can do what you want with the lemma at that point.

That got me, momentarily, when I first started using the software as well. So quick to get at the work that we easily overlook the obvious.

Mark,
Thanks for the prompt reply and explanation! I guess I'm not so "scholarly" as I thought I was! I definitely love Logos 4 and the new "Learning to Use..." lessons. Have a great day!

"Overlook the obvious"...Sometimes I think I should have that on my letterhead, Mike.
