ryangeer Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 I am trying to find instances similar to Habakkuk 1.5 where several imperatives are piled up one after another. When I do the following search, I get four hits - none of which are Hab. 1.5 which (I believe) clearly matches the criteria... Can anyone point me to my error? (I've included a picture of my simple search) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the second two are divided by one word. Your search looks for the last three imperatives being immediately contiguous which is not the case in Hab 1:5.
