!!! New Datatypes

Most datatypes are [[straightforward and familiar >> # 1. References]] and they can be referenced in the text, but many of the new ones classify *words* or *sections* of the text in much the same way that you would e.g. <Sense>, <Person>, <Place>, <PreachingTheme>, <Event>. And the /values/ they have are not as abbreviated nor as predictable as <Bible> or <GreekStrongs> values.

The necessary information for each datatype is stored in a dataset, and most have been documented.

!!!! Person, Place, Thing,Event

!!!! Person, Place, Thing

These datatypes enable you to get relevant results from your bibles, and are used in Factbook:

 

* <Person xxxxx>  --> biblical persons e.g. <Person Jesus>

* <Place xxxxx>   --> biblical places (towns, rivers, regions..) e.g. <Place Jerusalem>, <Place Jordan>, <Place Judea>

* <Thing xxxxx>   --> biblical /things/ e.g. <Thing Aaron’s Rod>, <Thing dog>

* <Event xxxxx> —> biblical events e.g. <Event The Israelites cross the Red Sea>

 

A Search will also find /referents/ for <Person>, <Place> and <Thing> i.e. pronouns, verbs and some adjectives.

In Factbook, type something like *Jesus* and note the description alongside each suggestion, but hover over it to display the datatype \\ e.g. "Person", which governs the search(s) suggested further down the article.

 

!!!! Sense

This datatype is encapsulated by the Bible Sense Lexicon and will find words corresponding to a sense(s) in your bibles.

!!!! Textual

For example:

* <Event xxxxx> —> Biblical Events e.g. <Event The Israelites cross the Red Sea>

* <LiteraryType xxxxx>  --> Literary Types listed in [[Lexham Glossary of Literary Types >> logosres:lxhmglssryltyps]]

…

* <GramCon xxxx> --> Grammatical Constructions listed in [[Greek Grammatical Constructions >> logosres:cidbdocgkgram;art=art9]] and [[Hebrew Grammatical Constructions >> logosres:cidbdochebgram;art=art9]]

 

The /available/ datasets are documented in manuals (/type:manual/) in your Library. Note that these datatypesusually require the [[*{Section}* >> # Tagged Data Sections]] extension syntax to get results from your resources.
