WORD Research this...Genesis 1
- 1 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
- 2 The earth was formless and empty. Darkness was on the surface of the deep and God’s Spirit was hovering over the surface of the waters.
- 3 God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.
- 4 God saw the light, and saw that it was good. God divided the light from the darkness.
- 5 God called the light “day”, and the darkness he called “night”. There was evening and there was morning, the first day.
- 6 God said, “Let there be an expanse in the middle of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.”
- 7 God made the expanse, and divided the waters which were under the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse; and it was so.
- 8 God called the expanse “sky”. There was evening and there was morning, a second day.
- 9 God said, “Let the waters under the sky be gathered together to one place, and let the dry land appear”; and it was so.
- 10 God called the dry land “earth”, and the gathering together of the waters he called “seas”. God saw that it was good.
- 11 God said, “Let the earth yield grass, herbs yielding seeds, and fruit trees bearing fruit after their kind, with their seeds in it, on the earth”; and it was so.
- 12 The earth yielded grass, herbs yielding seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit, with their seeds in it, after their kind; and God saw that it was good.
- 13 There was evening and there was morning, a third day.
- 14 God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of sky to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs to mark seasons, days, and years;
- 15 and let them be for lights in the expanse of sky to give light on the earth”; and it was so.
- 16 God made the two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He also made the stars.
- 17 God set them in the expanse of sky to give light to the earth,
- 18 and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. God saw that it was good.
- 19 There was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.
- 20 God said, “Let the waters abound with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open expanse of sky.”
- 21 God created the large sea creatures and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarmed, after their kind, and every winged bird after its kind. God saw that it was good.
- 22 God blessed them, saying, “Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth.”
- 23 There was evening and there was morning, a fifth day.
- 24 God said, “Let the earth produce living creatures after their kind, livestock, creeping things, and animals of the earth after their kind”; and it was so.
- 25 God made the animals of the earth after their kind, and the livestock after their kind, and everything that creeps on the ground after its kind. God saw that it was good.
- 26 God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the sky, and over the livestock, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”
- 27 God created man in his own image. In God’s image he created him; male and female he created them.
- 28 God blessed them. God said to them, “Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth, and subdue it. Have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the sky, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”
- 29 God said, “Behold, I have given you every herb yielding seed, which is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree, which bears fruit yielding seed. It will be your food.
- 30 To every animal of the earth, and to every bird of the sky, and to everything that creeps on the earth, in which there is life, I have given every green herb for food;” and it was so.
- 31 God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. There was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.

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.
