    Acts 19
    •   And it came to pass, in Apollos' being in Corinth, Paul having gone through the upper parts, came to Ephesus, and having found certain disciples,
    •   he said unto them, `The Holy Spirit did ye receive--having believed?' and they said unto him, `But we did not even hear whether there is any Holy Spirit;'
    •   and he said unto them, `To what, then, were ye baptized?' and they said, `To John's baptism.'
    •   And Paul said, `John, indeed, did baptize with a baptism of reformation, saying to the people that in him who is coming after him they should believe--that is, in the Christ--Jesus;'
    •   and they, having heard, were baptized--to the name of the Lord Jesus,
    •   and Paul having laid on them his hands, the Holy Spirit came upon them, they were speaking also with tongues, and prophesying,
    •   and all the men were, as it were, twelve.
    •   And having gone into the synagogue, he was speaking boldly for three months, reasoning and persuading the things concerning the reign of God,
    •   and when certain were hardened and were disbelieving, speaking evil of the way before the multitude, having departed from them, he did separate the disciples, every day reasoning in the school of a certain Tyrannus.
    • 10   And this happened for two years so that all those dwelling in Asia did hear the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks,
    • 11   mighty works also--not common--was God working through the hands of Paul,
    • 12   so that even unto the ailing were brought from his body handkerchiefs or aprons, and the sicknesses departed from them; the evil spirits also went forth from them.
    • 13   And certain of the wandering exorcist Jews, took upon them to name over those having the evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, `We adjure you by Jesus, whom Paul doth preach;'
    • 14   and there were certain--seven sons of Sceva, a Jew, a chief priest--who are doing this thing;
    • 15   and the evil spirit, answering, said, `Jesus I know, and Paul I am acquainted with; and ye--who are ye?'
    • 16   And the man, in whom was the evil spirit, leaping upon them, and having overcome them, prevailed against them, so that naked and wounded they did flee out of that house,
    • 17   and this became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, who are dwelling at Ephesus, and fear fell upon them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was being magnified,
    • 18   many also of those who did believe were coming, confessing and declaring their acts,
    • 19   and many of those who had practised the curious arts, having brought the books together, were burning them before all; and they reckoned together the prices of them, and found it five myriads of silverlings;
    • 20   so powerfully was the word of God increasing and prevailing.
    • 21   And when these things were fulfilled, Paul purposed in the Spirit, having gone through Macedonia and Achaia, to go on to Jerusalem, saying--`After my being there, it behoveth me also to see Rome;'
    • 22   and having sent to Macedonia two of those ministering to him--Timotheus and Erastus--he himself stayed a time in Asia.
    • 23   And there came, at that time, not a little stir about the way,
    • 24   for a certain one, Demetrius by name, a worker in silver, making silver sanctuaries of Artemis, was bringing to the artificers gain not a little,
    • 25   whom, having brought in a crowd together, and those who did work about such things, he said, `Men, ye know that by this work we have our wealth;
    • 26   and ye see and hear, that not only at Ephesus, but almost in all Asia, this Paul, having persuaded, did turn away a great multitude, saying, that they are not gods who are made by hands;
    • 27   and not only is this department in danger for us of coming into disregard, but also, that of the great goddess Artemis the temple is to be reckoned for nothing, and also her greatness is about to be brought down, whom all Asia and the world doth worship.'
    • 28   And they having heard, and having become full of wrath, were crying out, saying, `Great is the Artemis of the Ephesians!'
    • 29   and the whole city was filled with confusion, they rushed also with one accord into the theatre, having caught Gaius and Aristarchus, Macedonians, Paul's fellow-travellers.
    • 30   And on Paul's purposing to enter in unto the populace, the disciples were not suffering him,
    • 31   and certain also of the chief men of Asia, being his friends, having sent unto him, were entreating him not to venture himself into the theatre.
    • 32   Some indeed, therefore, were calling out one thing, and some another, for the assembly was confused, and the greater part did not know for what they were come together;
    • 33   and out of the multitude they put forward Alexander--the Jews thrusting him forward--and Alexander having beckoned with the hand, wished to make defence to the populace,
    • 34   and having known that he is a Jew, one voice came out of all, for about two hours, crying, `Great is the Artemis of the Ephesians!'
    • 35   And the public clerk having quieted the multitude, saith, `Men, Ephesians, why, who is the man that doth not know that the city of the Ephesians is a devotee of the great goddess Artemis, and of that which fell down from Zeus?
    • 36   these things, then, not being to be gainsaid, it is necessary for you to be quiet, and to do nothing rashly.
    • 37   `For ye brought these men, who are neither temple-robbers nor speaking evil of your goddess;
    • 38   if indeed, therefore, Demetrius and the artificers with him with any one have a matter, court days are held, and there are proconsuls; let them accuse one another.
    • 39   `And if ye seek after anything concerning other matters, in the legal assembly it shall be determined;
    • 40   for we are also in peril of being accused of insurrection in regard to this day, there being no occasion by which we shall be able to give an account of this concourse;'
    • 41   and these things having said, he dismissed the assembly.

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.
