<DIV>Moreover, all the alternative versifications require some special particularities: for example, in the Byzantine Bible (the Orthodox Synodical Bible), a verse may start in the middle of a KJV's one, contain the next KJV's verse too and reach the middle of the third KJV's verse. (This may happen particularly in the Book of Psalms.) And I think such particularities appear certainly in the other Bibles too, separately... So they might be necessary many alternative versifications: one for LXX, another one for BHS, another one for the Byzantine Bible -- here possibly with sub-sections: Russian, Romanian, Bulgarian etc. It would be great to create all these alternative versification systems, but I consider this Utopian...</DIV>
<DIV>Sorry Troy, I didn't want to discourage you... but this is the truth.</DIV>

<DIV>Dear Modules developers,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Does that mean that we have to await other SWORD engines and other compiling tools ? ...That also means that all the foreign modules, (like LXX, BHS etc.) should be rebuilt ?... Excuse me, but I don't understand the reason, since the texts are the same and only the versification differs. I think that reducing the texts to the same common denominator (i.e. the KJV's versification system, that is now the international standard not only for SWORD) is the best thing to do, and this guarantees the <STRONG>comparative / parallel reading</STRONG> for which the SWORD Project is intended to... <STRONG>Otherwise the commentaries, the cross-reference flashcards and links, and even the dictionaries wouldn't make any sense...</STRONG> Maybe I am a little conservative, but I feel this is the best way...</DIV>
