Search Help Needed

I am trying to search for all the times that covenants are mentioned in the OT, but have the results grouped by the parties involved (i.e. God to men, man to man, man to God, God to Israel, etc.). If I pull up the Bible Study Guide for the word berith, it shows 284 occurrences, but not grouped by parties. The Clause Participants section of the guide only shows 13 instances in relation to God, and only a couple to other parties. Is there a certain syntax I can use to see every instance grouped by the parties, or should I just categorize all 280 manually?

If you have Andersen-Forbes Hebrew bible you can categorise instances of berith

<AndersenForbesGenre = div-instr>, <AndersenForbesGenre = div-prd/prm>, <AndersenForbesGenre = div-oth ==> God to human

<AndersenForbesGenre = ntv> ===> Author to human

<AndersenForbesGenre = req>, <AndersenForbesGenre = oth> ==> human to human

These aren't all the Genre categories, but you can compare their coverage:

lemma:ברית:1 WITHIN <AndersenForbesGenre = div-instr>, <AndersenForbesGenre = div-prd/prm>, <AndersenForbesGenre = div-oth>, <AndersenForbesGenre = ntv>, <AndersenForbesGenre = req>, <AndersenForbesGenre = oth>

with occurrences of the word:-

lemma:ברית:1

EDIT: See this wiki for a list of AF Genres

If you have Syntax Search, though, the categories are listed:-

Dave: I've never used the syntax search before because I wasn't really sure what it did/how it would be used. Thanks for the info - I've got some exploring to do!

Keep Smiling: This is very helpful and right along the lines of what I was thinking of. Is there somewhere that has the definitions for all of the terminology such as agent, benefactive, etc.? Thanks!
