Greetings - what's the process for generating a list of all the verbs in a given book?

At the moment, I am just going verse by verse through Ephesians and making my own list. If there was a search process for this, it would save a lot of time.

Thanks!

    Hi Doug - and welcome to the forums

    Try using a Morph Search - https://wiki.logos.com/Morphological_Search has some guidelines

    To go through Graham's answer step-by-step:

    1. Go to Morph Search
    2. In the resources dropdown, make sure you have a Greek Bible selected.
    3. In the passages dropdown, type Ephesians.
    4. Type @V in the search box and then press the arrow to execute the search.
    5. While the search is still running, switch to the Analysis view.
    6. When the analysis table populates, drag the lemma column upwards to group by that column.
    7. Right-click on the results and choose Collapse All.
    8. You can export to a spreadsheet if you want to do further work, or you can click on the search panel menu and export the results to a word list.

    You never commented on Graham or Mark's posts, so I thought I'd show you what it looks like.
