Type this in the Library window search box (without the quotes) "type:Encyclopedia title:(Greek, Hebrew)"
Greek and Hebrew Lexicons are listed as type:Encyclopedia. Their language is listed as English, so you must search for Greek and Hebrew in their titles.

A bit tired today, are you, Jack? Try that search string in your own library, and I don't think you'll find any lexicons. [;)]
Sam, type (or copy-and-paste) this instead: type:lexicon title:(greek,hebrew) Whether you use capital letters like Jack did or not doesn't matter, but if you type 'encyclopedia' instead of 'lexicon' you'll get some other results than the ones you expected. And don't put any spaces after the colons.

Guys where do you find these codes. I have searched my fanny
off and come up empty handed. Is there some place in logos where they are all listed
for any application?0 -
Wiki Example Collections page has many collection examples, whose rules can be used to filter Library titles.
My "Lexicons" collection uses type:Lexicon
Observation: parts of Old Testament are Aramaic so could use type:lexicon subject:(greek,hebrew,aramaic)
Note: several lexicons do not have Greek or Hebrew in title (e.g. "Enhanced Strong's Lexicon").

I did try that code in my library, and I did find… Oops, those are not lexicons. [:$] The old proverb says, "Haste makes waste". I was in too much of a rush there. Thanks for the correction.
