theWord Basic Bible Window: Navigation
Objective
To understand and learn how to do some basic navigation in the TW Bible Window.
Note that you can rearrange the windows within the TW interface, so a sub-Window’s position is not really going to tell you what kind of Window it is. What will tell you that it is a Bible window is the phrase “Bible View” after the title on the title bar.
Illustration of a Bible View Window
Note that the verse reference and Bible version abbreviation come first, then the phrase “Bible View [1]”. The [1] is which number of Bible Window is this one (useful if you have more than 1 Bible View Window open at a time).
Buy me Burrito! Burritos are delicious. Meat, beans, sour cream, veggies, wrapped in a tortilla. We all enjoy burritos! But you know that you cannot have what is good without somebody paying for it. If you have enjoyed things on my website, please consider helping me maintain the expenses of this site. Consider at least a one time donation to this ministry of $10 or $20 dollars? Very infrequently (one person every 3-6 months) will somebody donate something. Usually that is all I receive from 34 websites! Yet, from my download statistics, I have about 96 gigabytes total being downloaded monthly from all of these websites. Be a blessing to me and donate any amount. It would be really great if you could gift me and my wife (who splits a burrito?) this money so that we could enjoy eating out at least once in a while. (I pay the expenses for these sites out of our living expenses.) God will richly bless you and repay you for your generosity. 1 Timothy 5:18 For the scripture saith, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn. And, The labourer is worthy of his reward. If you received some value from my websites, consider at least a small donation. A big donation would really be nice, too, though.

What we want to look at in this class is how to navigate. If you do not have the yellow bar in the graphics visible in your Bible View, then click Control +T to toggle it visible and invisible. If you don’t have a Bible View visible (open), then click F11.
Basic Navigation Buttons
In this graphic note that there is a line of buttons with arrows. We want to examine them. Note that the navigation is to click left or right arrows to go forward or backward, or click the triangle to choose directly which one you want.
The first pair is for backtracking forward or backward through the verses you have seen. TW keeps a tally of every verse you have visited this session and allows you to go forward and backward through that list. When you first go to several verses, you will not see any forward references. When you go back is when you will see them.
The next pair of buttons is to go to the next book in the Bible or the previous one. Clicking on the triangle will give you the choice of every book of the Bible.
In any one particular book, you can go forward or backward to the next or previous chapter by using the next buttons.
Finally, the last two arrow buttons allow you to forward or backward to the next or previous verse.
