This repository is a template intended for writing a verse by verse Bible commentary. The template includes a folder for each book of the Bible, with subfolders for chapters, and markdown files for verses.
I recommend using Obsidian as the text editor. This allows for additional functionality such as linking to other verses.
This template was created using generator.py
which adapts https://github.com/aruljohn/Bible-kjv to create files. Omitted verses were subsequently removed.1

Write your commentary in the respective markdown file for the verse you are commentating on. e.g. The file for Luke 4:21 would be
Luke/4/21.md
-
If using Obsidian, you can link to other verse files e.g. [[Isaiah/61/1]]
a. I recommend installing the
Backlinks
andOutgoing links
plugins
