Resource: Where do I download free Commentary Modules?

Buy me Steak Taco! You know, I work hard at my websites trying to provide you with good material that is sound doctrinally-speaking and of interest to God's people. It is hard work, but I don't mind doing it, and I feel called to the ministry, and God will bless me after all is said and done. But in the meantime, I do need to cover my expenses. I have a total of 34 websites (half English and half Spanish), and each one costs about $10 per month to keep up. That does not take into consideration my time and effort in writing content. Won't you consider at least a one time donation to this ministry of $10 or $20 dollars? It would be really great if you could gift me and my wife 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 lest a small donation. A big donation would really be nice, too though.

In above link, click the “Bible Commentaries” in the sidebar to select only on specific books of the Bible.

One of the advantages of TheWord is the ability to make subsets of all your modules. In this class, we will make a Commentary Module set. What’s the purpose and advantage of this is in using and searching your modules, you can reduce what TW has to go through (filtering results and cutting down on search times) by just including commentaries.

I would think that the more commentaries that are out there, the more the serious Bible student would want most all of them, and then arrange and use them wisely.

At this point you might need to review or read and study for the first time, the basic Model Sets class How to Make a Model Sets.

In theWord, open Define Module Sets Icon, then click on Make Module Sets,

and do the following…

1.) Clear Tree

2.) Templates…

3.) Group by Type.

This will give you a module set with ALL your modules but by type.

4.) Click on Dictionaries, Books, and Maps in the tree in the center window, and click “Delete” (button on the right-hand column).

You should have only “Commentaries” folder remaining, with a bunch of commentaries under that. Select the first commentary in the list, hold down shift, and click on the slider bar on the right, until you see the last commentary, click on that, and then drag it above to get it out of the commentary folder.

5.) Delete the empty Commentary folder.

6.) Selective delete what Commentaries you don’t want. Here, do the steps, and make different types of commentaries you might want, all, technical, devotional, cross-reference, etc.

7.) Save your module set. TW will not remember this set of modules without saving it, so click on the checkbox “Save this Set” and enter the name below it (last entries in the right-hand column).

Once you are out of the Define Module Set dialog box, you click on the Green books icon again to select again whatever module sets you have made.
