BUG?: Bible word study - Bible Search Results Mismatch
When doing a Bible word study on “Portion” I see that 2 hits in 2 verses are found in the Lexham English Bible. Upon clicking on that link the search pops up and finds 0 hits.
A similar mismatch-phenomenon occurs when I click the ESV link. Why the discrepancy?

On the Lexham English Bible, there is only content for Romans through Revelation at present. This one is at present a NT-only Bible; we hope to add the OT at a later date. To clarify, we've only worked on the NT, the OT translation portion has not commenced.
We have drafts of Matthew and Mark that we're working on incorporating into the resource and the underlying reverse interlinear. My guess is that we'll release the balance in two chunks, the first chunk being translation and reverse interlinear for Matthew, Mark and John; the second chunk being the translation/reverse interlinear for Luke-Acts. (or it may be Matthew & Mark, then Luke-Acts + John, or perhaps three chunks with John in the middle ... just unsure at this point) But I have no estimation on what that time frame will be.

the difference in counts between the Bible Word Study window and the Search Results window--a problem which isn't just restricted to the LEB, as the
ESV shows the problem, too.MacBook Pro (2019), ThinkPad E540

Update: Yep, just searched LEB for "portion" using basic search, and got two hits — both in footnotes. Did a Bible search and had no hits. So the "textual searches" from BWS appears to be searching the entire resource, not just Bible text in the resource (for Bibles).

Is that a bug? Seems like it should be restricted to the main text.
