If anyone's interested in comparing current English versions to what's been found at Qumran (Dead Sea Scrolls) I've got an early, mostly working bible based upon English translations of the Biblical Dead Sea Scrolls from the DJD series ( http://www.oup.com/us/catalog/general/series/DiscoveriesintheJudaeanDesert/?view=usa)
You can check it out by pointing your module manager to: Repository: 1XO Host: ftp.1xo.net /1xo/pub/sword/betaraw The name of the module is DSS. Admittedly, there are still some bugs based upon versification. Speaking of versification (again), may I recommend a versification scheme based upon what 'biblical books' were found at the Dead Sea? I'm willing to do the work. Surely there is value in having such a scheme? I've tried both KJVA and NSVA versification. Both produce abundant errors. (For example KJVA doesn't like some of the extra Psalms, EpJer.6.43-44 or Tob 6.17 etc, and NSVA complains more loudly about many more things. Anyhow, I offer access to this module for the purpose of obtaining QA type feedback. Please email me suggestions for improvement. ~A
