KJVER seems to be a big thing on the market nowadays. They have dozens of design versions, by big publishers.

It makes one wonder — not having seen the text of KJER 2001, to compare it with KJVER 2015:

Are they the same text, or different revisions, or completely different works without any connection to each other?

Are they the same project by same author, or did the big companies notice the idea of some random guy's KJER, and then made their own different KJVER independently?

So my question is, assuming I am allowed to add this info, how to add the title page picture, and then add the bibliographical info on the page I mentioned above.

To be more specific: How do I post a picture on the Bible_wiki album, so I can reference it in the text entry? I have the picture uploaded to my own album on flickr so far.

Thanks!

I really think that ebay gets a lot of flack but some of the "professional" retail sites are as much to blame. They've inflated the prices because they view these Bibles solely as investment items. That's a shame as it keeps them out of the hands of a lot of people who really would have liked to have them. Now, mosst of the older Bibles simply sit on a shelf or worse in a safe instead of being read.

Just my two cents.

Davis Landin

This is a wonderful project. I have been collecting Bible from various versions for about 30 years. I have collected from over 340 versions. I have a lot of information to share, but really don't understand this process.
Thanks,
Sidney Schwartz

as I was not really successful with my first try, I'm asking for help here in the forum. Maybe I am not the only one to need advice, and maybe there is someone who can easily write up a small recipe here for newbees.

Apparently, the Bible Catalog has some logic and structure. Therefor it would be most helpful to have instructions or even rules, in which sequence to proceed such that any additional page appears in its most suitable location and is also registered in all lists.

Thanks!
Michael

Hello there, I agree with Mike-y that it may soon be impossible to keep control if works are listed in multiple ways using "copies" of the data. Each item should be described in just 1 (one) entry, no matter which idea was applied by the original author for classification. Some kind of search engine will find whatever is asked for, as long as the answer is in the data.

As most Bibles are translations anyway, a few more fields may be significant though not mandatory. So why not allow to add them individually if the information is vailable; e.g. translator, commentator, revised by, publisher, printer, …

Also, I am missing "data" like number of pages, physical size, type of cover and binding, … all of which I consider important library information.

And when it comes to referencing Bibles in non-English languages there is also the aspect of scripts (character sets, fonts etc), e.g.
- Language: Jiddish, written in Hebrew characters
- Language: German, printed in Fractura/Gothic typeset

Suggested conclusion: allow and encourage as much information as possible or available, and provide for a powerful search engine.

Michael K.

Is it original languages (there is a camp that declares the Greek to be a translation from the Aramaic.)
Is is a Parallel (since that is the closest match)
Is it an Interlinear (you have Green's Interlinear on the main english page)
Do we need a separate Interlinear list? (Parallels compare whole verses, Interlinears compare the individual words. This is a world of difference… especially when you are dealing with a language you don't have fluency in.)
Is it an Internet-only?
OR is it a foriegn Language?

I've listed it under the parallel's, but feel free to put it right.

Well, I just googled, and I see some evidence of people owning a hard copy, but not a listing for the book itself. Apparently the book coincides or was first. Still have the "where to put this listing" issue.

In addition, I'd like to see more fields standardized, and Contents have some standard abbreviations.

Additional Fields: {Based On: used for work (other translations or original bibles listed here. It is important to know if a work is an update of KJV or a translation of the Vulgate, LXX or the Majority Texts, etc.) Obviously not all works will immediately be clear where they came from, but for the ones that are, having this catalogued is invaluable.}

Contents abbreviations: NT, OT, AP, CR (Cross References) FN (Footnotes) CM (Commentary), MP (Maps), SH (Section Headings), WOC (Words of Christ), GL - Glossary, DR - Daily reading (table or inline), SG (Study guides). For Non-standard works with missing books (Good As New - 2004 for instance) something Like NT (missing Revelation).

There are probably more works of scripture available on Google Books than on the Archive. However, the situation with the licensing of the works on google is not quite so clear. the works come with a plea to keep the works in a personal, noncommercial environment. I'm no lawyer so I can't say whether that allows for listing them on this (seemingly not-for-profit, but not clearly declared an IRS 5XX non-profit) or not.

For works that are not in the public domain, (including public domain titles that have been scanned by commercial entities who are restricting the output of their scan,) linking directly to the download would not be wise. That is posting a link here that pops up a save-to-location dialog. Linking to the top level site (whatever.com with no /somethingelse appended to it) is definitely OK and linking to the highest level which shows the work (but also allows the scanning site to get in some ads or sales-pitch) would be unlikely to raise any hackles, since it would increase traffic for them.

I realize that eBay can vary wildly - I have seen the exact same book go one time for $15 and another (just a few weeks later) for well over $150. It really depends on who sees it and what they are willing to spend at that moment. But, eBay does represent a real sale at a real price and that is valuable information. It would be nice to have dealers share actual prices for items sold (instead of just their asking price) but I realize dealers are usually unwilling to share such data. So, I will probably continue to include real sale prices from eBay when I see them (always noting the source).

In the end, the only thing that matters for me is "Am I willing and able to buy this book at this price today?" If so, I do, if not I must let it do. I have gotten some real bargains over the years and I have also over-paid at times. So, for me, dealer lists, eBay and even values on this site are only an guide to help me seize a bargain and avoid paying too much.

I have been collecting English Bible translations since 1968 and have seen a great increase in what you must pay for them. Yes, the dollar value has gone done but the difference is to large to be credited to that. However, I was a seller and a buyer on e-Bay. I believe that e-Bay is the cause for the increase in the price of Bibles. I agree with Ambrose completely for most people do NOT know what the real value of Bibles should be. They see a Bible 100 yrs old and say "wow, I have got to have that" and will bid up the price until they out bid others who don't know the true value either. Thus, inflated prices. The same can be said for the sellers.

Normally, Bibles are not considered old unless from the early 1700s and back. Normally speaking, there are a few translations done by individuals from the 1800s that have a high value. Most, but not all, Bibles with errors have a preminum value. However, only those from about 1830 back to 1530. (A list of these are in my book.)

Because sellers on e-Bay, no matter the reason, get high prices for their Bibles, professional book sellers are now pricing their Bibles based on e-Bay prices.

This is also true for most books today. An example would be my book. It's still in print after 17 years and sells NEW for $295. I just went to ABE.com and two were listed used. One priced at over $400 and the other for over $700. Both are forsale by professional book dealers. Now, who will ever purchased from them when the NEW is selling on amazon.com, B&N, and other places much, much lower than their price for used copies.

I have found that if you don't buy at the inflated price, you will never be able to buy what you want or and need. That is exactly why I have not been able to purchase any Bible translations in the last three years.

All of this makes it rather hard for me when I do an appraisel for a Bible.

As to the pictures on the sides. Others sizes are available from "thumbnail" to "fullsize". I will experiment with various options and see what is practical.

Thanks for the comments.

1) Alphabetical based on either the version name of translator name. Advantage - easy to find a given entry. Disadvantage - does not reveal any structure.

2) Topical based on general criteria. For example a section on Complete Bibles versus portions versus New Testaments. Or topics based on who created the version (original languages, Jewish, Catholic, Protestant, other)

3) Chronological - listed by date.

What do you think?
