The illustration is based on genre coding. The technique also works for other types of coding.

1. Find a passage that represents the genre you are interested in. I used the Proverbs explorer to find a proverb that was a simple saying, knowing that the Proverbs Explorer is limited to the book of Proverbs and has many more distinctions than Andersen-Forbes. I then selected my example in the Hebrew and opened the Context Menu (right-click).

2, I selected the Andersen-Forbes genre coding on the right and search this resource on the left. (Note the online search doesn't allow the save options of the panel search.)

3. Open the resource menu and save the search results as a Passage List.

4. In the Passage List you are allowed to change the translation.

5. You know have the list in an English translation.

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."
