The Bible doesn’t simply declare God’s power; it captures our imaginations with metaphors. In Exodus 3:19–20, the Lord promises to rescue Israel from Pharaoh by “a mighty hand.” This Hebrew metaphor is not always translated the same way in English, but a Morph query quickly locates all instances of the underlying Hebrew phrase. Now you can study this metaphor throughout the Old Testament and compare the ways it is used to describe both God and human power.
Morph queries are also useful for locating specific Greek constructions, and you can drill down to find agreements between words in case, number, or verbal aspect.
