Look up original Greek & Hebrew words

The webpage for the iPhone app states: 'Access the original Greek & Hebrew words with a simple tap-and-hold on any word in the Bible. You'll instantly see the lemma and morphology of the term.'

However, when I tap and hold I get a selection including 'Look up' which directs me to what appears to be a non-Logos (?) dictionary (I was asked if I wanted to download a dictionary on first use).

What am I doing wrong?

Apologies if this is explained elsewhere, I can't find a detailed guide for this on the mobile App part of the site (please direct me), and am a new iPhone user (iPhone 5, just downloaded the app) and first time on this forum.

Thanks

Richard

What Bible version are you clicking on?

What passage?

Try a different version like ESV, NIV,NKJV, NRSV,

P A

Press down on word so it is highlighted.

A bar should appear with following options:

Copy, Info, Search, Note, Highlight etc

Click on Info

Hi Richard - and welcome to the forums.

the functionality you are looking for requires something known as a "reverse interlinear" which matches the original language words with the English ones.

From your post you have just downloaded the free app and haven't purchased any RI resources which would explain what you are seeing.

Hope this males sense - even if it doesn't give you the answer you want!

Thanks, was using NIV84, but look up works on latest NIV version and the ESV when I tried them. Solved.

Yes, it works on the interlinear I have, and also on newer English translations I tried. Thanks for the advice. Richard
