1. If you explore the Bible Book Guide, you should open Parks, Jessica, and Sean Boisen. Bible Book Guide Dataset Documentation. Bellingham, WA: Faithlife, 2015. beside it to understand where the information for the Guide comes from ... and where it does not.

The top section comes from the Named-Text dataset (and here I'd expected the dataset to cover Sermon on the Mount, Bread of Life Discourse ... Wink)

2. Other data comes from tagging in various resources - Bible Dictionaries, Commentaries etc. This data is identified via Labels.

3. Many segments of the Bible Book Guide can be linked directly to labels. Some examples:

4. The Bible Outline Section of the Passage Guide parallels the Outlines segment of the Bible Book Guide in its use of Labels.

5. Unlike the Sermons label, simply creating a user equivalent to the Outline label does not allow you to add the resources of personal interest to either the Factbook or the Passage Guide list of outlines.

6 However, the labels whether Faithlife or user supplied to appear in the Context Menu as expected. Initiating a Search on the Label does pick up the user supplied label as well as the Faithlife supplied labels.
