Specify Multiple Books

search in multiple books

In this example, enter "Matthew, John:::Jesus Chirst" to search for "Jesus Christ", which appears in both the gospel of John and the gospel of Matthew.

You may try more examples below:

  • search the whole bible, e.g. God.*?love

  • search in a book, e.g. John:::Jesus Christ

  • search in multiple books, e.g. Matthew, John:::Jesus Christ

  • search in a book collection, e.g. Moses:::God.*?love

  • search in multiple book collections, e.g. Moses, Gospels:::God.*?love

  • search with combination of book collections and individual books, e.g. Torah, Major Prophets, Gospels, Hebrews:::God.*?love

Search Book collection(s)

From the last three examples listed above, you can see our app support searching a collection or collections of books. For example, if you specify "Moses" as books for a search, it instructs the app to search Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy. if you specify "Gospels" as books for a search, it instructs the app to search Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. From the last example, you can see that the app supports combination of individual books and collections.
