Search Morphology

Open our formatted Hebrew & Greek Bibles (e.g. MOB, MIB, MTB, MPB, MAB, OHGB, OHGBi) on UniqueBible.app.

To search for morphology, double click a Hebrew / Greek word

Specify Morphology Item(s)

You can limit the scope of your search by selecting morphology items that you look for.

If none is selected, all morphology items are included by default.

Specify Corresponding Interlinear Translation

From version 21.53, you can further limit the scope of search by selecting corresponding interlinear translations that you look you.

You can select interlinear translation from the drop-down menu right under morphology items on the dialog window appeared by double-clicking a Hebrew / Greek word.

If none is selected, all translations are include by default.

Search with single-line command

You can use MORPHOLOGY::: keyword to search for morphology, for examples:

MORPHOLOGY:::LexicalEntry LIKE '%G746,%' AND Morphology LIKE '%Singular%' AND (Interlinear LIKE '%rule%' OR Interlinear LIKE '%ruler%')

If you simply want to search a Strong's number together with a particular translation without selecting morphology, e.g.

MORPHOLOGY:::LexicalEntry LIKE '%G746,%' AND (Interlinear LIKE '%rule%' OR Interlinear LIKE '%ruler%')

If you want to search for dynamic translation [the last item in MIB] rather than interlinear translation [the second-to-last item in MIB], e.g.

MORPHOLOGY:::LexicalEntry LIKE '%G746,%' AND Morphology LIKE '%Singular%' AND (Translation LIKE '%rule%' OR Translation LIKE '%ruler%')

MORPHOLOGY:::LexicalEntry LIKE '%G746,%' AND (Translation LIKE '%rule%' OR Translation LIKE '%ruler%')

Remarks: Interlinear translations is more reliable for dynamic translations in terms of mapping their corresponding Hebrew / Greek words.

Distinct Translation

To use command line for search, you may want to know what interlinear translations or dynamic translations are available for search.

To have an overview of distinct interlinear translation, use DISTINCTINTERLINEAR::: keyword, e.g.

DISTINCTINTERLINEAR:::G746

To have an overview of distinct dynamic translation, use DISTINCTTRANSLATION::: keyword, e.g.

DISTINCTTRANSLATION:::G746
