Search syntax and counting rules
Use uppercase AND, OR, NOT, parentheses, and quoted phrases. Adjacent terms mean AND. Exclude with NOT or a minus sign. Use grace NEAR/5 faith for at most five intervening words, in either order, within one verse. grace NEAR faith within 5 words is also accepted. NEAR does not cross verse boundaries.
Precedence: parentheses and NOT, then NEAR, then AND, then OR. Phrases match normalized whole tokens. Punctuation is ignored, apostrophes within words retained, and hyphenated words are separate tokens. A matching-verse count differs from a word-occurrence count. Speaker filtering covers only explicitly listed annotations in John 3.
