WORD Research this...Luke 4
- 1 Then Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan, and was led about by the Spirit in the Desert for forty days,
- 2 tempted all the while by the Devil. During those days He ate nothing, and at the close of them He suffered from hunger.
- 3 Then the Devil said to Him, "If you are God's Son, tell this stone to become bread."
-
4 "It is written," replied Jesus,
"`It is not on bread alone that a man shall live.'" - 5 The Devil next led Him up and caused Him to see at a glance all the kingdoms of the world.
- 6 And the Devil said to Him, "To you will I give all this authority and this splendour; for it has been handed over to me, and on whomsoever I will I bestow it.
- 7 If therefore you do homage to me, it shall all be yours.'
-
8 Jesus answered him, "It is written,
`To the Lord thy God thou shalt do homage, and to Him alone shalt thou render worship.'" - 9 Then he brought Him to Jerusalem and caused Him to stand on the roof of the Temple, and said to Him, "If you are God's Son, throw yourself down from here; for it is written,
-
10
`He will give orders to His angels concerning thee, to guard thee safely;' -
11 and
`On their hands they shall bear thee up, Lest at any moment thou shouldst strike thy foot against a stone.'" -
12 The reply of Jesus was, "It is said,
`Thou shalt not put the Lord they God to the proof.'" - 13 So the Devil, having fully tried every kind of temptation on Him, left Him for a time.
- 14 Then Jesus returned in the Spirit's power to Galilee; and His fame spread through all the adjacent districts.
- 15 And He proceeded to teach in their synagogues, winning praise from all.
- 16 He came to Nazareth also, where He had been brought up; and, as was His custom, He went to the synagogue on the Sabbath, and stood up to read.
- 17 And there was handed to Him the book of the Prophet Isaiah, and, opening the book, He found the place where it was written,
-
18
"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because He has anointed me to proclaim Good News to the poor; He has sent me to announce release to the prisoners of war and recovery of sight to the blind: to send away free those whom tyranny has crushed, -
19 to proclaim the year of acceptance with the Lord."
- 20 And rolling up the book, He returned it to the attendant, and sat down--to speak. And the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on Him.
- 21 Then He proceeded to say to them, "To-day is this Scripture fulfilled in your hearing."
- 22 And they all spoke well of Him, wondering at the sweet words of kindness which fell from His lips, while they asked one another, "Is not this Joseph's son?"
- 23 "Doubtless," said He, "you will quote to me the proverb, `Physician, cure yourself: all that we hear that you have done at Capernaum, do here also in your native place.'"
- 24 "I tell you in solemn truth," He added, "that no Prophet is welcomed among his own people.
- 25 But I tell you in truth that there was many a widow in Israel in the time of Elijah, when there was no rain for three years and six months and there came a severe famine over all the land;
- 26 and yet to not one of them was Elijah sent: he was only sent to a widow at Zarephath in the Sidonian country.
- 27 And there was also many a leper in Israel in the time of the Prophet Elisha, and yet not one of them was cleansed, but Naaman the Syrian was."
- 28 Then all in the synagogue, while listening to these words, were filled with fury.
- 29 They rose, hurried Him outside the town, and brought Him to the brow of the hill on which their town was built, to throw Him down the cliff;
- 30 but He passed through the midst of them and went His way.
- 31 So He came down to Capernaum, a town in Galilee, where He frequently taught the people on the Sabbath days.
- 32 And they were greatly impressed by His teaching, because He spoke with the language of authority.
- 33 But in the synagogue there was a man possessed by the spirit of a foul demon. In a loud voice he cried out,
- 34 "Ha! Jesus the Nazarene, what have you to do with us? I know who you are--God's Holy One!"
- 35 But Jesus rebuked the demon. "Silence!" He exclaimed; "come out of him." Upon this, the demon hurled the man into the midst of them, and came out of him without doing him any harm.
- 36 All were astonished and awe-struck; and they asked one another, "What sort of language is this? For with authority and real power He gives orders to the foul spirits and they come out."
- 37 And the talk about Him spread into every part of the neighbouring country.
- 38 Now when He rose and left the synagogue He went to Simon's house. Simon's mother-in-law was suffering from an acute attack of fever; and they consulted Him about her.
- 39 Then standing over her He rebuked the fever, and it left her; and she at once rose and waited on them.
- 40 At sunset all who had friends suffering from any illness brought them to Him, and He laid His hands on them all, one by one, and cured them.
- 41 Demons also came out of many, loudly calling out, "You are the Son of God." But He rebuked them and forbad them to speak, because they knew Him to be the Christ.
- 42 Next morning, at daybreak, He left the town and went away to a solitary place; but the people flocked out to find Him, and, coming to the place where He was, they endeavoured to detain Him that He might not leave them.
- 43 But He said to them, "I have to tell the Good News of the Kingdom of God to the other towns also, because for this purpose I was sent."
- 44 And for some time He preached in the synagogues in Galilee.

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.
