<h2>How to search for a verse</h2>
<p>
Dynamic Bible doesn't yet have a verse picker. If you need a verse picker, hang on, we're diligently working on that feature. In the mean time, to bring up a passage,
just type in a reference. Dynamic Bible will recognize many abbreviations of books, and can handle ranges within a book. Here are a few examples to get you started:
</p>
<dl>
<dd>John 3:16</dd>
<dd>Jn 3:16</dd>
<dd>Jn 3:16-17</dd>
<dd>John 3:16-4:4</dd>
<dd>Jn 3-4</dd>
<dd>Jn 3:1-* (this will get all the verses in the chapter. the * char can be used in verse ranges, but not chapter ranges.)</dd>
</dl>

<h3>Examples of Search Items:</h3>
<ul>
<li>John 1 (displays whole chapter)</li>
<li>John 3:16 (displays single verse)</li>
<li>Jn 3:16 (handles abbreviation of John)</li>
<li>Jn 3:16-17 (displays verses starting with chapter 1 verse 3 through chapter 1 vs 5)</li>
<li>John 3:16-4:4</li>
<li>Jn 3-4 (displays both chapters)</li>
<li>John 3 - John 4 (displays both chapters)</li>
<li>Jn 3:1-* (this will get all the verses in the chapter. the * char can be used in verse ranges, but not chapter ranges.)</li>
<li>H1234 (displays the strongs definition for the Hebrew # 1234)</li>
<li>G1234 (displays the strongs definition for the Greek # 1234)</li>
<li>Jesus (searches for "Jesus". all search terms assume boolean AND, i.e. "Jesus Christ" assumes "Jesus AND Christ". A word without a number is interpreted as search term).</li>
</ul>
We currently don't support ranges that cross book boundaries.
We currently don't support ranges that cross book boundaries. If you search for "John 12 - Romans 3" you will get an error. the second book name is ignored.
<h3>Further Notes:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Multiple lookups can be made useing a semicolon as a seperator, i.e. "Ruth 1; g1234; spirit").</li>
<li>All greek/hebrew cross references translations are taken from the 1933 Websters version and are sometimes not the same as the KJV translation.</li>
<li>All source materials were taken from the <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/zefania-sharp/">Zefania XML Bible Project</a> on SourceForge.</li>
<li>Any Errors and Omission you find would be appreciated. Please contact me via <a href='http://www.jasonwall.org/'>www.jasonwall.org</a>.</li>
