Overview

Here are some notes on identifying versification systems based on text (presence of verses, order of books, etc.). For now it will simply be some whiteboarding. Perhaps we can make a nice flowchart in time--and eventually adapt it into a v11n identifier script.

Contributors should feel free to add to the page, but don't make it pretty at the expense of easy editing.

O (OT), A (apocrypha), & N (NT) indicate possible testaments in each v11n.

Systems

Some identified versification systems include:

  • KJV ON (aka English, Sword's default)
  • KJVA OAN (above plus apocrypha)
  • Leningrad O (that used by the (Westminster) Leningrad Codex)
  • Tanakh O (same as above, different book order)
  • Original OAN (Tanakh plus LXX? apocrypha plus GNT, English book order)
  • LXX OA
  • Vulgate OAN
  • Luther OAN (Original, different book order)
  • NRSV ON (English OT plus GNT)
  • NRSVA OAN (English OT plus LXX? apocrypha plus GNT)
  • GNT N (a component of other v11ns, not to be used as a separate v11n)

KJV
