XPath: Find a node with two conditions

I got this XML:

<iet:aw-data>
  <iet:metadata filter=""/>
  <iet:message-resource>
    <iet:message>תוכניות אחרות שאינן פדראליים</iet:message>
    <iet:customer id="1"/>
    <iet:code>edi.claimfilingindicator.11</iet:code>
    <iet:locale>iw_IL</iet:locale>
  </iet:message-resource>
  <iet:message-resource>
    <iet:message>ספק מועדף הארגון (PPO)</iet:message>
    <iet:customer id="1"/>
    <iet:code>edi.claimfilingindicator.12</iet:code>
    <iet:locale>iw_IL</iet:locale>
  </iet:message-resource>
  .
  .
  .
</iet:aw-data>

I want to build an expression to get all the nodes with code and message which contains a given parameter for each one of them.

What I made so far is this expression:

String exp = "//*[local-name()='message-resource']//*[local-name()='code'][contains(text(), 'edi')]"

Now I want to add the message field as another condition to this expression and I need help with that.

My version 

//*[local-name()='message-resource']/*[local-name()='code' and contains(text(), 'edi')]/../*[local-name()='message' and contains(text(), 'PPO')]/..

Just replace 'PPO' to what you are searching for in message.

You can use a subpath as a predicate. Assume you want to select codes of message resources where message contains 'some message substring':

//*[local-name()='message-resource' and ./*[local-name()='message' and contains(text(), 'some message substring')]]//*[local-name()='code'][contains(text(), 'edi')]
