In the right context menu, after the interlinear fields come the closely related Factbook datasets. Here it is easy to tell if you own the feature - no dataset no functionality.

1. To access the list of datasets you own, navigate Help ==> About Logos/Verbum ==> let hand column

2. The first dataset is Biblical Events. For our selected pericope we have an event "Mary and Joseph present Jesus at the temple". It provides us links to Factbook and Searches. [And Atlas for reasons I don't understand along with no link to the timeline.]

3. In Factbook, there is a link to the Biblical Event Navigator. Under See also is an extensive list of all the Factbook entities involved in the event - people, places, things, cultural concepts ...

4. The Search that is built is in a form many of us don't remember how to build. Hint: when you need to build a search find and event and let Logos build the Search ... then modify it to do exactly what you want.
