    Matthew 27
    •   When the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death.
    •   And when they had bound him, they led [him] away, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.
    •   Then Judas, who had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,
    •   Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed innocent blood. And they said, What [is that] to us? see thou [to that].
    •   And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself.
    •   And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood.
    •   And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in.
    •   Wherefore that field has been called, The field of blood, to this day.
    •   Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value;
    • 10   And gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me.
    • 11   And Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said to him, Thou sayest.
    • 12   And when he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.
    • 13   Then saith Pilate to him, Hearest thou not how many things they testify against thee?
    • 14   And he answered him to not a word; so that the governor marveled greatly.
    • 15   Now at [that] feast, the governor was wont to release to the people a prisoner, whom they would.
    • 16   And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.
    • 17   Therefore when they were assembled, Pilate said to them, Whom will ye that I release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus, who is called Christ?
    • 18   (For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.)
    • 19   When he was sitting on the judgment-seat, his wife sent to him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream, because of him.
    • 20   But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.
    • 21   The governor answered and said to them, Which of the two will ye that I release to you? They said, Barabbas.
    • 22   Pilate saith to them, What shall I do then with Jesus, who is called Christ? [They] all say to him, Let him be crucified.
    • 23   And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified.
    • 24   When Pilate saw that he could not prevail at all, but [that] rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed [his] hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye [to it].
    • 25   Then answered all the people, and said, His blood [be] on us, and on our children.
    • 26   Then he released Barabbas to them: and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered [him] to be crucified.
    • 27   Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered to him the whole band [of soldiers].
    • 28   And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.
    • 29   And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put [it] upon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews?
    • 30   And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and struck him on the head.
    • 31   And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify [him].
    • 32   And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they constrained to bear his cross.
    • 33   And when they had come to a place called Golgotha, that is to say, a place of a skull,
    • 34   They gave him vinegar to drink, mingled with gall: and when he had tasted [of it], he would not drink.
    • 35   And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture they cast lots.
    • 36   And sitting down, they watched him there:
    • 37   And set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
    • 38   Then were there two thieves crucified with him: one on the right hand, and another on the left.
    • 39   And they that passed by, reviled him, wagging their heads,
    • 40   And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest [it] in three days, save thyself. If thou art the Son of God, come down from the cross.
    • 41   Likewise also the chief priests mocking [him], with the scribes and elders, said,
    • 42   He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he is King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.
    • 43   He trusted in God; let him deliver him now if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.
    • 44   The thieves also who were crucified with him, cast the same in his teeth.
    • 45   Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land to the ninth hour.
    • 46   And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
    • 47   Some of them that stood there, when they heard [that], said, This [man] calleth for Elijah.
    • 48   And immediately one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled [it] with vinegar, and put [it] on a reed, and gave him to drink.
    • 49   The rest said, Forbear, let us see whether Elijah will come to save him.
    • 50   Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, expired.
    • 51   And behold, the vail of the temple was rent in two, from the top to the bottom: and the earth shook, and the rocks rent;
    • 52   And the graves were opened, and many bodies of saints who slept, arose,
    • 53   And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared to many.
    • 54   Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
    • 55   And many women were there (beholding at a distance) who followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering to him:
    • 56   Among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee's children.
    • 57   When the evening was come, there came a rich man of Arimathea, named Joseph, who also himself was a disciple of Jesus.
    • 58   He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered.
    • 59   And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,
    • 60   And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock; and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulcher, and departed.
    • 61   And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulcher.
    • 62   Now the next day that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together to Pilate,
    • 63   Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again.
    • 64   Command therefore that the sepulcher be made secure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say to the people, He is risen from the dead: so the last error will be worse than the first.
    • 65   Pilate said to them, Ye have a watch: go, make [it] as secure as ye can.
    • 66   So they went, and having sealed the stone, made the sepulcher secure with a watch.

    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.
