What Is the Grid View in Bible Search Results?

This week’s blog article is based on a question from a new Logos user:

I’m new to Logos and just discovered the Grid view when I search the Bible. Could you provide some explanation as to what this is?

The Grid view is another gem in Logos, and I’m happy to provide some help below:

Click the Search icon (A) to open the Search panel
Select Bible as the search type (B)
Select Top Bibles (first 5 prioritized Bibles) from the drop-down list (C)
Type favor in the Search box (D)
Press the Enter/Return key to generate the results
Select Grid as the view (E)
Use these explanations to read the Grid view

The searched Bibles are displayed at the top by their abbreviations (F)
The verses in which the word favor appears in at least one of the search Bibles appears in the left column (G)
A fill box indicates the word favor appears in the Bible in the column (in the image favor appears in Gen 6:9 in the NRSV) (H)
An unfilled box shows the word favor does NOT appear in the Bible in that column (in the image favor does NOT appear in Gen 31:2 in the NRSV) (I)
The text of the verses shown is coming from the Bible selected at the top (in the image NASB95 is the selected Bible) (J)
Click a different Bible at the top to change the preview verses to that Bible)
Hover on a filled or unfilled box to see a popup of the verse from the Bible in that column
Click a filled or unfilled box to open the Bible in that column
