This template is shorthand for Template:Bibleverse, and may be easier to use when there is no book number.
Usage
Code format:
{{Bibleref|BOOKNAME|c:v–c:v|SOURCE}}
- This template links offsite.
- Example
{{Bibleref|John|3:16|KJV}}
yields: John 3:16
- Detail
This template is used to provide links to Bible verses.
- DO NOT put any spaces anywhere in the template.
- You can use shorthand for the names, such as Sam or Deut.
- Books with a number must be written without a space, e.g. 2John. This doesn't look great, so it is better to use the slightly longer Template:Bibleverse when quoting such books.
- Verse references may be simplified (for example, no range for just one verse, or entire chapter).
- SOURCE is an optional parameter, to specify a translation. It is normally better to include one, e.g. KJV or NIV, otherwise the link goes to a long list of alternatives. See Template:Bibleverse for more available codes.
Examples
- Example1: {{Bibleref|1Samuel|3:16-4:18|NIV}} produces a link to: 1Samuel 3:16-4:18
- Example2: {{Bibleref|Genesis|1:15-16|HE}} produces: Genesis 1:15-16
