Accordance is great for those who want to do Bible word studies in Greek and Hebrew. One of the fastest ways to learn more about a word is simply to triple-click on it. This will open your default lexicon to an entry on that word. It’s fast and easy! If you’d like a different lexicon to come up when you triple-click on a word, you can change this in the Library. Just follow these simple steps:

1) Open the Library from the toolbar.

Open Library

2) Click on the Greek Tools disclosure triangle to see these resources.

Greek Tools

3) Click and drag your preferred Greek Tool to the top of that list.

Reorganize

4) Repeat steps 1-3 for Hebrew Tools.

In the above screenshots, I have set BDAG as my default triple-click resource. Now, any time I triple-click on a Greek word, BDAG will look up the word in a new zone. Pretty handy.

But what if you want to look up a word in more than one lexicon at the same time? Is there a way to triple-click on a word and look up definitions in several lexicons automatically? A number of Accordance users have asked me about this recently, so I’ve put together a brief video tutorial below that shows you how to set up a custom workspace for just this purpose. Happy word studying!
