WORD Research this...Genesis 11
- 1 The whole earth was of one language and of one speech.
- 2 As they traveled east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they lived there.
- 3 They said one to another, “Come, let’s make bricks, and burn them thoroughly.” They had brick for stone, and they used tar for mortar.
- 4 They said, “Come, let’s build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top reaches to the sky, and let’s make ourselves a name, lest we be scattered abroad on the surface of the whole earth.”
- 5 Yahweh came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men built.
- 6 Yahweh said, “Behold, they are one people, and they have all one language, and this is what they begin to do. Now nothing will be withheld from them, which they intend to do.
- 7 Come, let’s go down, and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.”
- 8 So Yahweh scattered them abroad from there on the surface of all the earth. They stopped building the city.
- 9 Therefore its name was called Babel, because there Yahweh confused the language of all the earth. From there, Yahweh scattered them abroad on the surface of all the earth.
- 10 This is the history of the generations of Shem. Shem was one hundred years old and became the father of Arpachshad two years after the flood.
- 11 Shem lived five hundred years after he became the father of Arpachshad, and became the father of sons and daughters.
- 12 Arpachshad lived thirty-five years and became the father of Shelah.
- 13 Arpachshad lived four hundred three years after he became the father of Shelah, and became the father of sons and daughters.
- 14 Shelah lived thirty years, and became the father of Eber:
- 15 and Shelah lived four hundred three years after he became the father of Eber, and became the father of sons and daughters.
- 16 Eber lived thirty-four years, and became the father of Peleg.
- 17 Eber lived four hundred thirty years after he became the father of Peleg, and became the father of sons and daughters.
- 18 Peleg lived thirty years, and became the father of Reu.
- 19 Peleg lived two hundred nine years after he became the father of Reu, and became the father of sons and daughters.

- 25 Nahor lived one hundred nineteen years after he became the father of Terah, and became the father of sons and daughters.
- 26 Terah lived seventy years, and became the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran.
- 27 Now this is the history of the generations of Terah. Terah became the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran. Haran became the father of Lot.
- 28 Haran died before his father Terah in the land of his birth, in Ur of the Chaldees.
- 29 Abram and Nahor took wives. The name of Abram’s wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor’s wife, Milcah, the daughter of Haran who was also the father of Iscah.
- 30 Sarai was barren. She had no child.
- 31 Terah took Abram his son, Lot the son of Haran, his son’s son, and Sarai his daughter-in-law, his son Abram’s wife. They went from Ur of the Chaldees, to go into the land of Canaan. They came to Haran and lived there.
- 32 The days of Terah were two hundred five years. Terah died in Haran.

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.
