Since you're using Logos software, I'll speak on the subject due to the
fact that I also use it. I would suggest that you simply do a
morphological search for aorist middle, aorist passive and future middle
and future passive forms without specifying any lemma. It should work
though I haven't tried that specific search (I've done other similar
searches). I would suggest that you do each search separately so you can
have the categories separated into their own lists.
