Bible-Dictionary Lookup Popup


Bible Dictionaries

Description of Feature

Dictionary Lookup Popup. When you setup this feature of the word, you can quickly lookup the definition of a Bible word in various commentaries completely AUTOMATICALLY with just passing the mouse over the word in a Bible.

Note that TheWord will put as many or as few Bible Dictionaries (optionally any module will work) into the mix to search, and when the popup shows, YOU HOLD DOWN SHIFT and click in the popup window, and you can then scroll down the window to see the different dictionary definitions.

This Bible Dictionary feature is extremely powerful and useful, and you can use it to quickly (almost instantaneously) see many definitions of a word. See below at the bottom of this post for more uses of this feature.

(Note that in the illustrations below, I am highlighting the word I am mousing over in the image so you will see where my mouse is, but in TheWord, the word stays the same color.)

Removing Bible Versions from Version Selector Bar

How do I remove so many Bible Versions from the Bible Version Selector Bar without uninstalling them?

!–more–>




There are two solutions to this problem:

1) Permanently remove the Bible version from TheWord.

You can do this by closing down completely (exiting) the program. But before you do, make sure you know where the particular Bible version is located by checking its install folders.

Next shut down TheWord and go to that folder and move the Bibles out of theWord folders to another storage place somewhere else on your computer. This is a simple Windows Explorer activity to move a file.

2) Temporarily hide the unwanted Bible version(s) from TheWord.

To temporarily hide unwanted Bible version(s) in the Bible Version Selector Bar, go to the Main Menu of TheWord, then Preferences, then click on the “Bible Texts” tab at the top. You should see this screen (different Bible versions of course).

Notice the checkboxes on the left-hand side of this screen (before the Bible version abbreviation). Simply uncheck the ones you do not want to see in the bar. If you later want to see them (you have to remember that you have it installed) then come back here and check it again.

How do I show the BibleView Window Options Icons (at left)

BibleView Window Options Icons

Topic: How do I show the BibleView Window Options Icons (at left)
By David Cox

BibleView Window Options Icons. When using theWord, at times you accidentally press a wrong combination of keys, and you are left with something you don’t want. I have been using theWord working in a Bible, and all of sudden the entire left-hand icons disappear on me, well actually, I pressed the wrong keys and they disappeared on me.

For most things with theWord you can go to the main menu at the top, and you can search there for turning something on or off. But in this particular case, you will need to know how to do this while you have the Bibleview window in particular active. Then it is very easy.




Tip: So if you do not see the left-hand menu Icons in your BibleView. If this is the case, then press Ctrl+T to toggle it on/off or hide/show.

Note that YOU MUST FIRST CLICK IN THE BIBLEVIEW WINDOW TO MAKE IT ACTIVE or this won’t work.

Method: Greek Translation

Class Objective: This page will teach you how to set up theWord to study the Bible using two Greek Bible versions, two non-Greek Bible versions, Strong’s Dictionary, and Robinson’s Morphology Codes.

In this method, I want to show you how I set up my theWord windows to translate or study the original Greek language. Putting aside all the discussion about Bible manuscripts, I just want to look at a passage in the KJV, in a Greek Bible, and in Spanish (I am a missionary in Mexico). As such I am comparing 2 non-Greek versions with two Greek versions.
