Bug: Clause Search for μακάριος

Using verb-lemma:μακάριος does not find all instances of the lemma μακάριος in the LSGNT. A sample is shown below. A lemma search using the normal Bible Search tool finds all of them.

Above you can see only three of the nine times the verb μακάριος appears in Matthew 5:1-11 appear.

Unless I misunderstand something it appears to be a bug in the search engine.

Rick pointed out a part of the issue here: http://community.logos.com/forums/p/59860/425978.aspx#425978 I tried to use μακάριοςas a verb, which it is not. That doesn't explain why the clause search return a portion of the uses in Matthew 5, but only a portion. The SBLGNT Clausal Outlines look like they treat each of the uses of this word in the same way (logical) but the clausal search does not.

Perhaps I'm just not fully understanding this tool, but why does it leave other passages out that use blessed as well, such as Rev1:3?

How are you searching? A verbal search should not work, as it is an adjective, and is used as a predicative nominative in that verse.

Anyway, have been unable to construct a clause search that finds this use [:(]

In Rev 1:3, the verb-less clause whose predicate is the adjective μακάριος (blessed) is omitted because our analysis didn't determine any semantic arguments of the clause. Ideally, it would have determined that the semantic referent of the (long) subject phrase (translated "the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and those who hear, and keep what is written in it") was the same "Person in Revelation" referred to by its sub-phrases.

Got it. Thanks Peter!
