WORD Research this...Ephesians 1
- 1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, to the saints who are at Ephesus, and the faithful in Christ Jesus:
- 2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
- 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ;
- 4 even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and without defect before him in love;
- 5 having predestined us for adoption as children through Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his desire,
- 6 to the praise of the glory of his grace, by which he freely bestowed favor on us in the Beloved,
- 7 in whom we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace,
- 8 which he made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence,
- 9 making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he purposed in him
- 10 to an administration of the fullness of the times, to sum up all things in Christ, the things in the heavens, and the things on the earth, in him;
- 11 in whom also we were assigned an inheritance, having been foreordained according to the purpose of him who works all things after the counsel of his will;
- 12 to the end that we should be to the praise of his glory, we who had before hoped in Christ:
- 13 in whom you also, having heard the word of the truth, the Good News of your salvation—in whom, having also believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise,
- 14 who is a pledge of our inheritance, to the redemption of God’s own possession, to the praise of his glory.
- 15 For this cause I also, having heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which is among you, and the love which you have toward all the saints,
- 16 don’t cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers,
- 17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him;
- 18 having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope of his calling, and what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
- 19 and what is the exceeding greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to that working of the strength of his might
- 20 which he worked in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and made him to sit at his right hand in the heavenly places,
- 21 far above all rule, and authority, and power, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age, but also in that which is to come.
- 22 He put all things in subjection under his feet, and gave him to be head over all things for the assembly,
- 23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all.

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.
