Hi, I am having trouble searching for a Hebrew or Greek word in a specific resource, in my iPhone app. I have no problem doing this in my regular PC software.
What happens when you try?
Mark, the problem is that I do not see a search window where I can search for a word. The only search window I see is one that shows the Biblical reference.
To do a search, you should:
Mark, thanks so much. I have been testing that approach and it works very very well, indeed. It does not search in the one item, such as the particular lexicon alone, but rather in all my references. I suppose it will only do the one reference when that is one of the Bibles. But no matter, it is doing what I wanted. For those who may read this post later, it is nice that I can include a word such as לבב without the Massoretic points. Just as in the regular Logos, it will find these references perfectly in the Lexicons. Thanks, again.
Glad that's working. If you want to search for a work from a resource
If you want to open a lexicon and go to the exact place (rather than do a search).
I am now facing a similar problem. For instance, I am searching for במִי. While I do get a BDB definition, I cannot see Gesenius in the list. The words appears so many times in the BHS that I cannot see its definition in other Lexicons. Any way to exclude Biblical references, and get only the Lexicons? Thanks again, Gregorio (PS. My actual question is the qere reading in Isaiah 25:10, and a comparison to the Dead Sea Scrolls).

Are you doing this from the Bible Word Study? - that remains the best way to get access to your lexicons when online.

You can create a collection for Hebrew lexicons on Logos on your PC/Mac, then search on your iPhone just using that collection (see above).
Mark, thanks for the patience. I have now created an 8 resource collection and named it Hebrew Lexicons (it included HALOT, however, and I do not think that is available on the iPhone, right?). So, how do I save that collection (is it automatic?), and how do I open it in my iPhone Logos? Thanks, Gregorio
Mark, I made some great progress as I was able to see how to view my collection. However, it is not working as I supposed it would. In the Bible Word Study it only shows me Gesenius (my favorite, but not sure why it does not show me the others). Also, in the regular search, where I have it search my collection, Hebrew Lexicons, it does not seem to find anything. Quite strange, so I am sure I am doing something wrong. Best, Gregorio
