Semantic Search
The Semantic Search feature is now available starting from version 34.78 of the Unique Bible App.
With the Unique Bible App semantic search functionality, you can enjoy the following benefits:
-
Conduct searches using natural language queries, making it easier for you to find what you're looking for in the bible.
-
Search using various phrases and arrangements, even if you can't recall the exact wording. This feature is particularly effective in locating similar phrases across different bible translations.
-
Receive responses based on your preferred version of the bible.
-
Perform more than just a basic search - write summaries, comparisons and more.
With the semantic search feature of the Unique Bible App (UBA), you can seamlessly query any bible version of your choice and receive relevant responses.
Whenever you utilize UBA's semantic search, the platform automatically verifies the availability of the GPT index on the currently opened bible version.
If the corresponding GPT index is absent, UBA demonstrates its exceptional capabilities by generating them and saving them locally in the "UniqueBible/llama_index/" folder.
The semantic search response is subsequently created based on the GPT index of your selected bible version.
For instance, if you use the ChatGPT chatbot to quote verses, it may provide verses from diverse bible versions. Nonetheless, with UBA's semantic search, you can request GPT to provide quotes from the bible version you're using.

The phrase "slow to speak" is found in James 3:2, which states, "For we all stumble in many ways. If someone does not stumble in what he says, he is a perfect individual, able to control the entire body as well." This verse is encouraging us to be slow to speak, so that we can avoid stumbling in our words and maintain control over our bodies.

Input:
semantic:::write a summary on Exodus 13
Output:
Exodus 13 is about the Lord instructing Moses to set apart the firstborn males of the Israelites as his own. Moses then tells the people to remember the day they left Egypt and to celebrate a festival to the Lord for seven days, eating bread without yeast. He also tells them to tell their sons that the Lord brought them out of Egypt with a mighty hand. The Lord then leads the Israelites around the wilderness to the Red Sea, and Moses takes the bones of Joseph with him. The Lord goes before them in a pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night, so that they can travel day or night.
Input:
semantic:::compare Mark 1 and John 1
Output:
Mark 1 and John 1 both describe the beginning of Jesus' ministry. Mark 1 focuses on Jesus' baptism and the events that follow, while John 1 focuses on the identity of Jesus as the Word of God and the Lamb of God. Both passages emphasize Jesus' authority and the importance of repentance and belief in the gospel. Mark 1 also mentions John the Baptist's ministry of baptizing people for the forgiveness of sins, while John 1 emphasizes the importance of recognizing Jesus as the one sent from God.
