I was looking to play with a recent search by Fred, but Logos completely misinterpreted my valid search:
(lemma:γυνή INTERSECTS <Sense wife>) AFTER 1 WORD @R
Logos interprets this as:
(lemma:γυνή INTERSECTS <Sense ~ wife>) AND "AFTER" AND @R
When I replace INTERSECTS with ANDEQUALS, Logos interprets the search correctly.

Hey Mark,
I see your point on INTERSECTS vs ANDEQUALS
Your ANDEQUALS search returns better results than the one I suggested. Yours removes a couple of garbage results that mine included. One thing that threw me was why yours was capturing so many more results, then I realized you were searching All Passages rather than just the Pauline Epistles.

Generally the search engine doesn't support most operators as operands of a proximity operator. This is the same issue as mentioned here where the comma operator works but not the OR operator: https://community.logos.com/forums/t/4896.aspx
That said, in the same way that there is an exception for the comma operator, we should be able to make exceptions for the INTERSECTS and WITHIN operators. I've created a case to fix this.

What about NEAR?
Please use descriptive thread titles to attract helpful posts & save others time. Thanks!
SineNomine:What about NEAR?
Unfortunately, no. The difference is that the result of the INTERSECTS and WITHIN operators is a single matching term, while NEAR results in 2 matching terms. This prevents it from being able to be combined with the other proximity operators.

OK.
