WORD Research this...Luke 20
- 1 And it came to pass, [that] on one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple, and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes came upon [him], with the elders,
- 2 And spoke to him, saying, Tell us, By what authority doest thou these things? or who is he that gave thee this authority?
- 3 And he answered and said to them, I will also ask you one thing; and answer me:
- 4 The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men?
- 5 And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say, Why then believed ye him not?
- 6 But if we say, From men; all the people will stone us: for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.
- 7 And they answered, that they could not tell whence [it was].
- 8 And Jesus said to them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
- 9 Then he began to speak to the people this parable; A certain man planted a vineyard, and let it to husbandmen, and went into a far country for a long time.
- 10 And at the season he sent a servant to the husbandmen, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard: but the husbandmen beat him, and sent [him] away empty.
- 11 And again he sent another servant: and they beat him also, and treated [him] shamefully, and sent [him] away empty.
- 12 And again he sent the third: and they wounded him also, and cast [him] out.
- 13 Then said the lord of the vineyard, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: it may be when they see him they will reverence him.
- 14 But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.
- 15 So they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed [him]. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
- 16 He will come and destroy these husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to others. And when they heard [it], they said, may that never be.
- 17 And he beheld them, and said, What is this then that is written, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner?
- 18 Whoever shall fall upon that stone, shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
- 19 And the chief priests and the scribes the same hour sought to lay hands on him; and they feared the people: for they perceived that he had spoken this parable against them.
- 20 And they watched [him], and sent forth spies, who should feign themselves just men, that they might take hold of his words, that so they might deliver him to the power and authority of the governor.
- 21 And they asked him, saying, Master, we know that thou sayest and teachest rightly, neither acceptest thou the person [of any], but teachest the way of God truly:
- 22 Is it lawful for us to give tribute to Cesar, or not?
- 23 But he perceived their craftiness, and said to them, Why tempt ye me?
- 24 Show me a penny. Whose image and superscription hath it? They answered and said, Cesar's.
- 25 And he said to them, Render therefore to Cesar the things which are Cesar's, and to God the things which are God's.
- 26 And they could not take hold of his words before the people: and they marveled at his answer, and held their peace.
- 27 Then came to [him] certain of the Sadducees (who deny that there is any resurrection) and they asked him,
- 28 Saying, Master, Moses wrote to us, If any man's brother should die, having a wife, and he should die without children, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed to his brother.
- 29 There were therefore seven brothers: and the first took a wife, and died without children.
- 30 And the second took her for a wife, and he died childless.
- 31 And the third took her; and in like manner the seven also: And they left no children, and died.
- 32 Last of all the woman died also.
- 33 Therefore in the resurrection, whose wife of them is she? for seven had her to wife.
- 34 And Jesus answering, said to them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage:
- 35 But they who shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage.
- 36 Neither can they die any more: for they are equal to the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.
- 37 Now that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the bush, when he calleth the Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
- 38 For he is not a God of the dead, but of the living: for all live to him.
- 39 Then certain of the scribes answering, said, Master, thou hast well said.
- 40 And after that, they durst not ask him any question at all.
- 41 And he said to them, How say they that Christ is David's son?
- 42 And David himself saith in the book of Psalms, The LORD said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
- 43 Till I make thy enemies thy footstool.
- 44 David therefore calleth him Lord, how is he then his son?
- 45 Then in the audience of all the people, he said to his disciples,
- 46 Beware of the scribes, who desire to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts;
- 47 Who devour widows' houses, and for a show make long prayers: the same shall receive greater damnation.

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.- Direction: LTR

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.
