    Leviticus 11
    •   Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them,
    •   “Speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘These are the living things which you may eat among all the animals that are on the earth.
    •   Whatever parts the hoof, and is cloven-footed, and chews the cud among the animals, that you may eat.
    •   “‘Nevertheless these you shall not eat of those that chew the cud, or of those who part the hoof: the camel, because he chews the cud but doesn’t have a parted hoof, he is unclean to you.
    •   The cony, because he chews the cud but doesn’t have a parted hoof, he is unclean to you.
    •   The hare, because she chews the cud but doesn’t part the hoof, she is unclean to you.
    •   The pig, because he has a split hoof, and is cloven-footed, but doesn’t chew the cud, he is unclean to you.
    •   Of their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall not touch; they are unclean to you.
    •   “‘These you may eat of all that are in the waters: whatever has fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, that you may eat.
    • 10   All that don’t have fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of all the living creatures that are in the waters, they are an abomination to you,
    • 11   and you detest them. You shall not eat of their flesh, and you shall detest their carcasses.
    • 12   Whatever has no fins nor scales in the waters, that is an abomination to you.
    • 13   “‘These you shall detest among the birds; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle, and the vulture, and the black vulture,
    • 14   and the red kite, any kind of black kite,
    • 15   any kind of raven,
    • 16   the horned owl, the screech owl, and the gull, any kind of hawk,
    • 17   the little owl, the cormorant, the great owl,
    • 18   the white owl, the desert owl, the osprey,
    • 19   the stork, any kind of heron, the hoopoe, and the bat.
    • 20   “‘All flying insects that walk on all fours are an abomination to you.
    • 21   Yet you may eat these: of all winged creeping things that go on all fours, which have legs above their feet, with which to hop on the earth.
    • 22   Even of these you may eat: any kind of locust, any kind of katydid, any kind of cricket, and any kind of grasshopper.
    • 23   But all winged creeping things which have four feet, are an abomination to you.
    • 24   “‘By these you will become unclean: whoever touches their carcass shall be unclean until the evening.
    • 25   Whoever carries any part of their carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.
    • 26   “‘Every animal which parts the hoof, and is not cloven-footed, nor chews the cud, is unclean to you. Everyone who touches them shall be unclean.
    • 27   Whatever goes on its paws, among all animals that go on all fours, they are unclean to you. Whoever touches their carcass shall be unclean until the evening.
    • 28   He who carries their carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. They are unclean to you.
    • 29   “‘These are they which are unclean to you among the creeping things that creep on the earth: the weasel, the rat, any kind of great lizard,
    • 30   the gecko, and the monitor lizard, the wall lizard, the skink, and the chameleon.
    • 31   These are they which are unclean to you among all that creep. Whoever touches them when they are dead, shall be unclean until the evening.
    • 32   On whatever any of them falls when they are dead, it shall be unclean; whether it is any vessel of wood, or clothing, or skin, or sack, whatever vessel it is, with which any work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the evening; then it will be clean.
    • 33   Every earthen vessel, into which any of them falls, all that is in it shall be unclean, and you shall break it.
    • 34   All food which may be eaten, that on which water comes, shall be unclean; and all drink that may be drunk in every such vessel shall be unclean.
    • 35   Everything whereupon part of their carcass falls shall be unclean; whether oven, or range for pots, it shall be broken in pieces: they are unclean, and shall be unclean to you.
    • 36   Nevertheless a spring or a cistern in which water is gathered shall be clean: but that which touches their carcass shall be unclean.
    • 37   If part of their carcass falls on any sowing seed which is to be sown, it is clean.
    • 38   But if water is put on the seed, and part of their carcass falls on it, it is unclean to you.
    • 39   “‘If any animal, of which you may eat, dies; he who touches its carcass shall be unclean until the evening.
    • 40   He who eats of its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. He also who carries its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.
    • 41   “‘Every creeping thing that creeps on the earth is an abomination. It shall not be eaten.
    • 42   Whatever goes on its belly, and whatever goes on all fours, or whatever has many feet, even all creeping things that creep on the earth, them you shall not eat; for they are an abomination.
    • 43   You shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creeps, neither shall you make yourselves unclean with them, that you should be defiled thereby.
    • 44   For I am Yahweh your God. Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am holy: neither shall you defile yourselves with any kind of creeping thing that moves on the earth.
    • 45   For I am Yahweh who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God. You shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.
    • 46   “‘This is the law of the animal, and of the bird, and of every living creature that moves in the waters, and of every creature that creeps on the earth,
    • 47   to make a distinction between the unclean and the clean, and between the living thing that may be eaten and the living thing that may not be eaten.’”

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.
