WORD Research this...Matthew 14
- 1 At that time news of Jesus came to Herod the king;
- 2 And he said to his servants, This is John the Baptist; he has come back from the dead, and so these powers are working in him.
- 3 For Herod had taken John and put him in prison because of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife.
- 4 Because John had said to him, It is not right for you to have her.
- 5 And he would have put him to death, but for his fear of the people, because in their eyes John was a prophet.
- 6 But when Herod's birthday came, the daughter of Herodias was dancing before them, and Herod was pleased with her.
- 7 So he gave her his word with an oath to let her have whatever she might make request for.
- 8 And she, at her mother's suggestion, said, Give me here on a plate the head of John the Baptist.
- 9 And the king was sad; but because of his oaths and because of his guests, he gave the order for it to be given to her;
- 10 And he sent and had John's head cut off in the prison.
- 11 And his head was put on a plate and given to the girl; and she took it to her mother.
- 12 And his disciples came, and took up his body and put it in the earth; and they went and gave Jesus news of what had taken place.
- 13 Now when it came to the ears of Jesus, he went away from there in a boat, to a waste place by himself: and the people hearing of it, went after him on foot from the towns.
- 14 And he came out and saw a great number of people and he had pity on them, and made well those of them who were ill.
- 15 And when evening had come, the disciples came to him, saying, This place is waste land, and the time is now past; send the people away so that they may go into the towns and get themselves food.
- 16 But Jesus said to them, There is no need for them to go away; give them food yourselves.
- 17 And they say to him, We have here but five cakes of bread and two fishes.
- 18 And he said, Give them to me.
- 19 And he gave orders for the people to be seated on the grass; and he took the five cakes of bread and the two fishes and, looking up to heaven, he said words of blessing, and made division of the food, and gave it to the disciples, and the disciples gave it to the people.
- 20 And they all took of the food and had enough: and they took up twelve baskets full of broken bits which were not used.
- 21 And those who had food were about five thousand men, in addition to women and children.
- 22 And straight away he made the disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, till he had sent the people away.
- 23 And after he had sent the people away, he went up into the mountain by himself for prayer: and when evening was come, he was there by himself.
- 24 But the boat was now in the middle of the sea, and was troubled by the waves: for the wind was against them.
- 25 And in the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea.
- 26 And when they saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they gave cries of fear.
- 27 But straight away Jesus said to them, Take heart; it is I, have no fear.
- 28 And Peter, answering, said to him, Lord, if it is you, give me the order to come to you on the water.
- 29 And he said, Come. And Peter got out of the boat, and walking on the water, went to Jesus.
- 30 But when he saw the wind he was in fear and, starting to go down, he gave a cry, saying, Help, Lord.
- 31 And straight away Jesus put out his hand and took a grip of him, and said to him, O man of little faith, why were you in doubt?
- 32 And when they had got into the boat, the wind went down.
- 33 And those who were in the boat gave him worship, saying, Truly you are the Son of God.
- 34 And when they had gone across, they came to land at Gennesaret.
- 35 And when the men of that place had news of him, they sent into all the country round about, and took to him all who were ill,
- 36 With the request that they might only put their hands on the edge of his robe: and all those who did so were made well.

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.
