    Mark 7
    •   Then came together to him the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes, who came from Jerusalem.
    •   And when they saw some of his disciples eating bread with defiled (that is to say with unwashed) hands, they found fault.
    •   For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, except they wash [their] hands often eat not, holding the tradition of the elders.
    •   And [when they come] from the market, except they wash, they eat not. And many other things there are, which they have received to hold, [as] the washing of cups, and pots, and of brazen vessels, and tables.
    •   Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him, Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashed hands?
    •   He answered and said to them, Well hath Isaiah prophesied concerning you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoreth me with [their] lips, but their heart is far from me.
    •   But, in vain do they worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men.
    •   For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, [as] the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.
    •   And he said to them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition,
    • 10   For Moses said, Honor thy father and thy mother; and, Whoever curseth father or mother, let him die the death:
    • 11   But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, [It is] Corban, that is to say, a gift, by whatever thou mightest be profited by me; [he shall be free].
    • 12   And ye suffer him no more to do aught for his father or his mother;
    • 13   Making the word of God of no effect through your traditions, which ye have delivered: and many such like things ye do.
    • 14   And when he had called all the people [to him], he said to them, Hearken to me every one [of you], and understand.
    • 15   There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him, can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile the man.
    • 16   If any man hath ears to hear, let him hear.
    • 17   And when he had entered into the house from the people, his disciples asked him concerning the parable.
    • 18   And he saith to them, Are ye so void of understanding also? Do ye not perceive, that whatever thing from without entereth into the man, [it] cannot defile him.
    • 19   Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all kinds of food.
    • 20   And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man.
    • 21   For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
    • 22   Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness;
    • 23   All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.
    • 24   And from thence he arose, and went into the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and entered into a house, and would have no man know [it]: but he could not be hid.
    • 25   For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of him, and came and fell at his feet:
    • 26   (The woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation,) and she besought him that he would cast forth the demon out of her daughter.
    • 27   But Jesus said to her, Let the children first be satisfied: for it is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast [it] to the dogs.
    • 28   And she answered and said to him, Yes, Lord: yet the dogs under the table eat of the children's crums.
    • 29   And he said to her, For this saying, depart; the demon is gone out of thy daughter.
    • 30   And when she had come to her house, she found the demon had gone out, and her daughter laid upon the bed.
    • 31   And again, departing from the borders of Tyre and Sidon, he came to the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the borders of Decapolis.
    • 32   And they bring to him one that was deaf, and had an impediment in his speech; and they beseech him to put his hand upon him.
    • 33   And he took him aside from the multitude, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spit, and touched his tongue.
    • 34   And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith to him, Effatha, that is, Be opened.
    • 35   And immediately his ears were opened, and the string of his tongue was loosed, and he spoke plain.
    • 36   And he charged them that they should tell no man: but the more he charged them; so much the more a great deal they published [it];
    • 37   And were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things well; he maketh both the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.

    Webster Bible Electronic Format.
    PUBLIC DOMAIN

    February 1992

    Beginning in July of 1991 the task of placing the Webster Bible text in electronic format began. The original purpose was to provide Larry Pierce, who produces the On-Line Bible program, with a more modern *public domain* text, similar in content and style to the AV but with a grammar that would provide better comprehension in todays English.

    I plan on maintaining an accurate copy of the Webster text. Anyone finding an error should contact me; Anyone desiring to obtain the latest, most correct text, can find it on the Bible Foundation BBS, or can contact me in the following methods:

    I would like to thank the Bible Foundation not only for scanning nearly the entire Webster Bible but for encouraging me to undertake this monumental work; particularly around page 20 when I realized what I had gotten myself into. Special thanks to Jerry Kingery of the Bible Foundation for scanning, and Jerry Hastings for doing some preliminary scan cleaning and making the texts available on the BBS.

Basic Hash Usage Explained

At getBible, we've established a robust system to keep our API synchronized with the Crosswire project's modules. Let me explain how this integration works in simple terms.

We source our Bible text directly from the Crosswire modules. To monitor any updates, we generate "hash values" for each chapter, book, and translation. These hash values serve as unique identifiers that change only when the underlying content changes, thereby ensuring a tight integration between getBible and the Crosswire modules.

Every month, an automated process runs for approximately three hours. During this window, we fetch the latest Bible text from the Crosswire modules. Subsequently, we compare the new hash values and the text with the previous ones. Any detected changes trigger updates to both our official getBible hash repository and the Bible API for all affected translations. This system has been operating seamlessly for several years.

Once the updates are complete, any application utilizing our Bible API should monitor the hash values at the chapter, book, or translation level. Spotting a change in these values indicates that they should update their respective systems.

Hash values can change due to various reasons, including textual corrections like adding omitted verses, rectifying spelling errors, or addressing any discrepancies flagged by the publishers maintaining the modules at Crosswire.

The Crosswire initiative, also known as the SWORD Project, is the "source of truth" for getBible. Any modifications in the Crosswire modules get reflected in our API within days, ensuring our users access the most precise and current Bible text. We pledge to uphold this standard as long as getBible exists and our build scripts remain operational.

We're united in our mission to preserve the integrity and authenticity of the Bible text. If you have questions or require additional information, please use our support system. We're here to assist and will respond promptly.

Thank you for your understanding and for being an integral part of the getBible community.
