Unfortunately it is not possible to change or remove the books names as they are hard coded.

e-Sword is set up to display the standard 66 books of the Christian bible, 12 Apocrypha books plus expanded versions of Esther and Daniel in bible modules and commentary modules 

The 12 books of the Apocrypha that can be display by e-Sword are:

1 Esdras
2 Esdras 
Tobit
Judith
1-4 Maccabees 

The Prayer of Manasseh

Wisdom
Sirach
Baruch

If you are creating something other then a bible module you might want to consider creating a topic module which can be used with e-Sword's built in resource library. Topic files have more flexibility in what can be displayed then bible modules. 
 

 

Hi TJ,

Can you point me to a resource or somewhere where I can learn more about this?

Thanks,

Nick

Hi I am using Tooltip and want to know if its possible to make chapter/books without abbreviations (example: "Gen 3:15" to simply show as "3:15").  I dont want the book name abbreviations to show up.

OR if its possible, to change the book name abbreviations?

I am trying to make a test module for something completely different (not scripture), and would like to either rename the books, but if thats not possible than I will be happy with just removing the book name altogether from showing and just have the chapter and verse only.

Is it possible to make a module with 114 "books" instead of the 66 (or more with Apocrypha)?

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!

Message me your email address, and I'll flick you over a copy of the of the 1985 ed of the NIV, and if you wish, the TNIV.

 

Yes please on the 2013 ed of the NWT. I'll message you my email address.

 

Thanks and Blessings,

Email sent!  

Really appreciate that - thank you!!

I would like a copy of the NWT 2013 module if possible

PM me your email address so I can send it to you!

You can get the 1984 edition of the NIV for e-Sword from eStudySource.com. Click here to purchase and download it.

 

The NIV1984 is bundled with the current edition of the NIV and the NIrV, and costs $24.99.

 

Before the 2011 edition of the NIV came out, I bought the 1984 edition, and this was bundled with the TNIV and NIrV editions. When the 2011 edition for e-Sword was released the publishers dropped the TNIV. That one is no longer available for e-Sword, and the only way one will be able to get it, is from those who still have it.

 

Trust you will find this helpful.

 

Blessings,

I actually purchased the NIV set yesterday, but it only has the NIV 2011 and the NIrV, no 1984 edition unless I'm missing something here??

BTW did you want a copy of the NWT 2013 module??

If you are interested in having or comparing various editions of the New World Translations and other books used by the JW there is an excellent site with all of the versions of New World Translations and other materials in pdf format:

https://avoidjw.org/bibles/

This site has translations of the JW bible dating back to 1960 along with a large number of other JW related publications. 

Thanks, I am not really interested in comparing them to be honest, I was just interested in the 1984 and their latest editions thats all as they are good to use in Apologetics against the JW's.  Thanks though!
