Thanks for the encouraging words. I'm afraid I wouldn't know what kind of categorization to apply to the Words of Jesus.

As for the KJV2000, I didn't even know it existed. I presume the OT red letters are used for words spoken by Jehovah? Sounds interesting. I'll have to check it out.

hi

here is the KJV2000 http://www.biblesupp...ersion-kjv2000/
The Words of the Father, Son, Holy Spirit, and quotations of them - are in Red.

If you can separate the Words of Jesus by His parables, teachings etc. That would be a start but if you can not don't worry about.

Thank a lot

Thank you not only for your "creativeness" but your "determination"...to serve the Lord by making this fine module ! I am so thankful for you and all the others that apply so much hard work and tireless effort in seeking out new and innovative ways to help all of us as we strive to study and learn about our Lord. May He continue to bless and use you in all your future efforts to produce E-sword modules !

Thanks, Dartmaster. Your prediction about my writing more modules is spot-on. I just uploaded a module called "Chronological Gospels", where the four Gospels are harmonized and presented in chronological order. A great way to read the Word, imo.

We all thank you...once again...for another original effort ! All I can say is...keep up the good work. We eagerly await your next installment.

My only suggestion is that you use a translation other than the NKJV. The reason for this is that the NKJV is a premium module, and since your modules are 100% made up of NKJV, it might be in violation of their copyright statement which says that their Bible cannot comprise over a certain amount of someone's work.

Thanks for the work, though!

Thanks, Brad. Your suggestion makes sense, but there's no free translation that's as good as the NKJV (imo). Yes, there's the ESV, but it has a few idiosyncrasies that I don't like (e.g., not capitalizing the pronouns used for deity; not italicizing added words that don't come from the original languages). There's always the KJV, but that doesn't reflect the best scholarship -- never mind that it's not all that easy to understand.

Now I'm not sure what to do.

The AKJV, the Modern Literal Version, or the Lighthouse Bible would be decent choices. I'm not tying to dissuade you from making these modules (far from it). I just don't want there to be a chance later on that your modules have to be taken down because of a possible copyright issue.

How about building a chronological module made exclusively of tooltip links. Then the module reader can read your work in whatever translation they choose - no copyright issues at all.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll have to check those versions out.

I thought about that, but I don't think it would really lend itself to an easy read, having to mouse from verse to verse and only being able to see one verse at a time. I am going to use that strategy on my next module, though.

Create two resources:

• A chronological verse list;
• A topical file/refx/whatever, that consists entirely of tool tip links;
