Another tip of the day (TOTD) series for Logos/Verbum 10. They will be short and often drawn from forum posts. Feel free to ask questions and/or suggest forum posts you'd like to see included. Adding comments about the behavior on mobile and web apps would be appreciated by your fellow forumites. A search for "L/V 10 Tip of the Day site:community.logos.com" on Google should bring the tips up as should this Reading List within the application.

This tip is inspired by the forum post: Look Up doesn't always show DBL Greek - Logos Forums

The right-click Lookup feature will show your five highest prioritised lexicons that have an entry on the word you are studying.

Andrew Batishko said:

The order of that list is defined by the prioritizations you set in the Library panel

  • Select lemma on left
  • Select search books on right
  • Change all books to type:lexicon (on-the-fly collection)

Or modify the search argument to look only at headwords.

Or use the Bible Word Study:

But BWS cheats as it includes Grammars as well as Lexicons!

There is no gloss given when the resource does not offer simple glosses but rather only more complex definitions.

Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
