never default to the article.
when I do a Bible Word Study on certain words, it connects to several underlying Greek words. I had to call tech support to figure this out. The odd thing to me is that it defaults to the article rather than the main word. Very rarely would I want to know about the article. It seems it would be better if it defaulted to the main word instead of the article. In the example below, I want to know about Theos, not Tw

How often do I need to tell you NEVER USE AN INTERLINEAR ! If you use the NA27 and right-click on θεῳ in your passage then on "Bible Word Study", it will work.

my sin is worse than you think. I use a reverse interlinear. Terrible, I know. I actually think it is a good way to get familiar with the words, reading large blocks of text every day and getting familiar with the underlying Greek words.

If you insist on being a reprobate, at least open the NA27 and link it with your interlinear so you can use it for your BWS.

it is all about quick. which is quicker, to find the appropriate word in the NA27 and do the word study from there, or to select the right word from the interlinear?
What is so horrible about an interlinear, anyway?
I do think this is a very good and necessary suggestion...it's not such a big deal when I have huge screen real estate like on my desktop where I can see the article and the actual word I want to look up. But when screen real estate is limited like on my laptop, it is annoying to have scroll down to get to the word I want.
Please have the article come second.

I definitely agree; quite often I hit the lemma for the article, and then it spins its wheels since articles are so common. I'm guessing they're using a sub-routine that moves thru the sequence in order of occurance.
