LXX in Exegetical Guide Instead of Hebrew in iOS9
Hi, Friends.
I continue to have an unusual problem with the Exegetical Guide when working with Logos Bible app on my iPad (iOS 9). The Guide works acceptably when I'm working in the NT (I don't know why I can't choose the lexicons I want, but the app gets a couple of them right); but when I'm working with the OT, under the Word for Word section, all I ever get is the LXX and Greek lexicons, not BHS and Hebrew lexicons.
Anyone else having the same problem? I can find no information on how to change this. I need to work with my Hebrew lexicons, not the Greek.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. The EG is useless to me until I can get the Hebrew lexicons to appear.
Thanks,
Jeff

To my knowledge the Exegetical Guide's lexicons are currently not user selectable in the mobile apps. We are looking into a possible rewrite of the back-end server code that serves up this information, but that's about all I know.
Hi, Kevin.
Thanks for your reply.
Exegetical Guide is a crucial reason that I use Logos, and at the moment, it is useless for OT studies. It would be great if Logos could find a resolution to this problem.
Thank you for your labors for the Master and for us.

I see Hebrew lexicons as below
What at version of the app do you have? Which app are you using?
Hi, Graham.
Thanks for your reply.
I know that's what mine is supposed to look like. But where you have the Hebrew and Hebrew lexicons, mine only shows the LXX and Greek lexicons.
I am using version 5.0.2 (5.020894) of the Logos Bible app on an iPad Air 2.
Very strange
What lexicons are shown in the Definition section when you run a BWS against an OT word?
When I run a BWS, Hebrew lexicons appear. So I cannot understand why they do not appear in the EG.
EG has obviously defaulted to the LXX for some reason, and that appears to be the problem. Setting it to default to the Hebrew--if someone knew how to do that--would seem to be the solution.
just a guess...might be something more involved.
Can you post a screenshot of how the Word by Word section appears on the iPad - and also showing what prioritisation you have in the Logos 6 Library, particularly around lexicons?
I'm sorry, Graham, but I cannot figure out how to insert the screenshot. The insert/edit image wants a URL. The screenshot is on my computer. Can you please tell me how to do this?
thank you.
