Hi,<br>
<br>
gmail is telling me I sent this mail to jsword-devel yesterday.<br>
If it seems totally random, that's because it is - the mail was supposed to go to a totally different mailing list. Sorry.<br>
<br>

For those that like to read from Strongs at Bible Class, you can always
press CTRL+A, CTRL+C and the flip to your word processor, paste, and
then delete all the bits you didn't want! Not ideal I know, I thought
about having a system where you click to see a strongs number, but I
thought that people wouldn't realise what to do.<br>
<br>
The error message for the search for "the" is poor, but reflects the
fact that "the" is generally useless in searches so it is stripped out,
leaving a search for nothing, which fails. Another one for the todo
list.<br>
<br>
The data comes from the Sword project. (<a href="http://www.crosswire.org/" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">http://www.crosswire.org/</a>) So
mucked up verses like the one you saw in the search come from there.
The solution is a long and tedious process that someone needs to go
through. You could get OSIS (XML Bible markup language) of the KJV
including strongs numbers and morphology marking from there.<br><span class="sg">

Hi Joe<br><br>> I'm not sure how many people use a web Bible site like Bible Gateway,<br>> where you can lookup Biblical passages on the web. I've created a<br>> similar site, that should be quite a bit quicker, and get you easy
<br>> access to strongs numbers and so on.<br>><br>> <a href="http://www.eireneh.com/studious/" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">http://www.eireneh.com/studious/</a><br><br>
I like the Strongs definition pop-ups, though people who want to<br>copy them and then read them verbatim in Bible classes might complain.
<br><br>I tried the "Joseph & Mary" search & got this, which doubtless will<br>remind you of your TODO list! Everything else was default values.<br>Firefox 1.0PR.<br><br>> 20But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord
<br>> appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear<br>> not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in<br>> her is of the Holy Ghost.for+that+as+1063%3F%0Awhich+as+3588%3F
<br><br>Impressively fast on a search for "david" :-) so I was encouraged to<br>stress your server and did a search on "the". The error message was<br>a surprise: "Verse should be between 1 and 32 for Num 11 (given 36)"
<br><br>You might be able to help me by telling me where one gets electronic<br>Strongs numbers data. I've been toying with Conceptual Graphs for<br>natural language processing since I was at university (the 2nd time<br>
around, doing computing) and I've been experimenting with some
<br>semantic indexing of the Bible with a view to building a NL web<br>interface. I'd be happy with a big text file with simple tags, or<br>XML, a database file, etc, but I can't find it anywhere.<br><br>Cheers<br>Bruce
