Question: Miracles of the Bible Interactive

In a conversation, someone had mentioned they heard a statement that said "Jesus never healed the someone the same way twice." Or something to that effect (while I recognize that there a many general healings that are not described in detail, that's not part of the question I'm presenting today.) He mentioned he wanted to study that out to see if the specific descriptions of Jesus healing miracles were, in fact, uniquely executed.

I opened the miracles interactive and figured it may be a good first stop. I didn't realize it operated like the Psalms Explorer - I love it!

I haven't found exactly what I'm looking for, but I would love to be able to export the list of Healings performed by Jesus on the Interactive into a passage list, but don't see that as an option.

Also, I thinking that there has to be a search formula that I'm not thinking of...

Any help is appreciated!

"Jesus never healed the someone the same way twice."

Without wishing to sound pedantic, even if you check the data, you'll only prove "The Gospels don't record Jesus healing someone the same way twice". John 21:25!

The help file contains the syntax for miracle searches. You need:

{Label Miracle WHERE Agent ~ <Person Jesus> AND Type ~ "Healing"}

Do it in a Bible Search, and you can then export to a Passage List.

However, it won't merge consecutive verses into a range.Therefore a better idea is to:

Filter the Miracles of the Bible Interactive by Healing / Jesus.
Ensure the view is set to Text.
Select all the text in the interactive.
Right-click on the selected text and copy to the clipboard.
Create a new Passage List and add from the clipboard.

No worries! I'm aware of that. Part of the question is motivated by figuring out how to use the software to find answers.

John 21:25!

One of my favorite scripture!!

There it was!! Right in the Help file. Thank you!

Huh - maybe the Interactives need a "send to sermon," and "Send to Pessage Guide", "Send to Passage List," etc.

Thanks for your help Mark!! Always appreciated.

Points 4 and 5 do not seem to work on Logos version 9. Selecting the text and trying to paste it into a new Passage List only selects one line and then pastes the whole line, not just the text.

I've just tried Mark's instructions and they worked for me.

Did you copy the contents of the Interactive and then use the Add button in the passage list to include the contents of the clipboard?
