G'day

I enjoy using Logos 7 Gold, but I feel like I am only just putting my toe in the water. I'm wondering if there is a handy list of Kings of Israel and Judah in Logos 7. Haven't been able to find one. An interactive module would be just the ticket!

    Faithlife Study Bible Infographics, which is included in Gold, has one.

    Search for the resource in your library

    Open the navigation bar on the side and choose timelines and then the Divided Kingdom.

    David a good question, sometimes the answer to finding what you are looking for is actually not a search but knowing what's in your library and being familar with some key resources and the sort of information they contain.

    If I wanted this information, first place I would go is Israel's Kings Timeline because I know I have this in my library.  Not sure if you would have this as  it dates from the old Timeline tool in Libronix, the precursor to the current Logos Bible Software.  

    Beyond that I'd would open up the Faithlife Study Bible table of contents because I know it has a lot of extra helpful informaiton in addition to the study notes and go to the list of tables.

    There I find a helpful table (thought the alignment leaves a little to be desired)

    At the end of the table I can see its been adapted from a number of sources including an article in the Lexham Bible Dictionary which I know I have in my library so I can go to that article to see what if offers (its a shame Logos has not linked it)

    In this article I find a very similar table where it is better aligned with some details on how the data was pulled together.

    Others hopefully will chime in with a different approach.

    One way is to do a Media search such as those shown below. You can choose specific elements to search in Media and expand or narrow your search by how specific you are with your search term(s). Please note, not everything is tagged as such, so if you have a particular resource you feel would/should have something like this in it – like a study Bible – sometimes you need to do it the old-fashioned way and turn to 1 Kings or 2 Kings and flip through the pages. I’ve found some real gems that way! You shouldn’t have to do that, but that’s a different topic. For example, the ESV Study Bible has two very good charts on just this subject but they will not come up in a search.

    One more good chart that I found was in the Bible Knowledge Commentary. I like the way it lays out the kings.
