[jsword-devel] chronological bible

[Chris Burrell]

Such Bibles definitely exist, eg
http://www.amazon.com/One-Year-Chronological-Bible-NIV/dp/084235090X

although I don't know if they include the actual dates rather than just
the order, and what scholarship they use. (A friend of mine has a study NIV
with
dates, but they're the Ussher ones!)
