Passage in all versions

Hi All,

How do one run a passage in all versions in V4? Under search, Bible search, if i type the reference John 3:16 & set it to search in all version, all passages. It runs a search but no result. Am i missing something. I can do this easily in V3. Thanks.

Ted.

I haven't a clue. I was searching for this same thing the other day. All I found was compare pericope and the version river, and that didn't seem to be all of them.

You can use the Text Comparison tool for that. It does the work of Passage in All Versions, Parallel Bible Versions, and Compare Parallel Bible Versions from v3.

Just select the versions that you want or create a collection with the versions you want, and select it. Also, deselect the Show Differences "A" on the window. And you get this:

One way would be to use the "compare versions" feature. I put it on a tool bar short cut.

go to your passage. click "compare versions" either type in the versions or use a collection; in my case it was "all english bibles"

And if you tell 4.0 to open this tab in a floating window you can align the verses in horizontal rows or vertical columns and do a number of other things to compare the texts.

BTW, there's not an easy way to identify all the English bibles in the library.

I tried "type:bible AND lang:english" but that gives a lot of spurious hits like NA26 and "Novum Testamentum Graece, Varia Lectio (Tischendorf)" and Septuaginta, plus a lot of commentary-provided translations.

I have two English Bibles collections: a small one of primary bibles that was built manually, and a second one where I added a tag to all the bibles I want to be considered English Bibles, and built the collection to included all the books with that tag.

It doesn't have to be a floating window, however you do get a fixed width window if you open it without telling it where to go. If you want horizontal, you can also drag it around the main window to a more appropriate place.

todd,

here is my list:

type:bible lang:english -message -paul's - noteless -readers

that took care of all and I excluded the message, the NET noteless bible, the NIVR, the "St Paul's epistles" series.

I had no greek bibles included automatically

I use this collection for a LOT of things.

yeah, the reason I went with tags is because I can browse the list in the library with "mytag:englishbible", and I can't browse a Collection in the Library window. I wish we could.
