Why do I get this:
In spite of this:
And that:
John 1:12, for instance, is found in both lists.
What am I doing wrong?
For some reason it looks as though you need to use parentheses
Good find!
Apparently, it makes no difference which terms the parentheses are applied to:
I wonder if the two occurrences of AND introduce some form of ambiguity which may not be apparent here but could be in other contexts?
Another question:
I don't understand John 7:5 here. The brothers are the subject of the verb. Or is "subject" used in a different sense?
Good find! Apparently, it makes no difference which terms the parentheses are applied to:
Looks like a bug to me. It might be worth reporting in a separate thread if Bradley or one of the developers don't see this one.
You get that because of a (dare I say it?) ...bug. This will be fixed in an upcoming release. As pointed out, in the meantime parentheses around two of the search terms will resolve the issue.

Ryan, any info on the subject: issue mentioned above as well?
No info from me but I've passed the question on to those with a better understanding of the underlying data.
So, I would think that a search for "subject:Jesus AND verb-lemma:pisteuw" should only show those clauses where both Jesus is the subject and the verb is pisteuw.
Good point.
technically the search is returning correct results.
I follow your reasoning but I'm not convinced. The reference to Jesus modifies the actual subject "His" brothers, but is not the subject itself, which is what subject:Jesus would seem to indicate. Jesus is not the subject or part of the subject (He does not perform the action) of pisteuo but its Stimulus. But I am ready to be corrected if the clause search does actually work the way you suggest and returns any element of a subject segment in the clause analysis.

Thank you, Ryan.

I do find the behaviour strange but am speculating it might at least explain what we are seeing!
Will be interested to see what the Faithlife people say
It is definitely a bug that searching for subject:Jesus brings up John 7:5. The bug causes entities that are not the subject but are mentioned inside the subject to be included in the results. I think the same bug also affects all the other syntactic and semantic categories. It should be fixed soon.
