Hebrew Construct Search Help

I'm trying to find the Psalms that begin with an imperatival verb.

Using the construct window I have:

Doing this finds the first verb in each Psalm when I combine it with the scope filter like so:

So I figure, if I simply add the imperative filter to my verb in the construct window, it will simply filter out all the non-imperative verbs from the previous list:

So far, no such luck:

Can any of you explain what's happening here? I especially don't understand how Psalm 2:8 becomes a result for the second search, when it isn't a result for the first, and it seems as if I'm only adding specificity, so I couldn't get new hits.

 

Thanks,

Trev

Hmm. I agree this is a bug in the Construct, but fortunately this one works fine with a Boolean expression in the Search tab:
