Passage in ALL Bibles?

I'm looking at the Beatitudes, focusing at present on the first one, and want to see how different Bibles render it. I'm familiar with F7 and the associated Text Comparison tool, which currently has five of my most frequently-used Bible versions in the box. But is there a way of quickly showing, side by side, Matthew 5:3 in all the Bibles I possess - without having to type several dozen abbreviations into the box? I'm sure there used to be something like that in Libronix.

Sure. Create a Collection, of type:Bible, then when you do a Text Comparison, if you click in the command box where you type the Bible abbreviations, you will see your collections. Pick your Bible Collection and voila! You can do other kinds of collections of Bibles too if that's too many, any collection works.

You can get them to display side by side by clicking on the resource menu and selecting horizontal layout. You will now have a scroll bar across the bottom.

I use type:bible AND lang:english in my collection and then remove the ones I don't want. Assuming your wanting an English collection of Bibles.

Many thanks. It's great to have that pool of expertise out there to fish in when necessary!
