Discussion starter

OSIS has no dedicated element specifically for a chapter description.

These are not section titles per se but they come before verse 1.

In printed Bibles, they are typically in italics and are never in bold. Usually centred and often contain verse numbers that could be thought of as references to locate the text described following. They can flow onto more than one line in pages with two columns of text. In some editions these are allowed to be full page width rather than column width. The text size is never larger than verse text.

The Blayney 1769 Oxford edition of the KJV has such chapter descriptions.

How best to mark these ?

Best regards

David
