Set Your Preferred Bible

Verbum allows you to set the default Bible version that will appear when you click a Bible reference in a resource or report or when you perform a search.

There are two ways to set your preferred Bible: through the Command Box and through prioritized resources.

 

Command Box

You can set your preferred Bible from the Command box by typing set preferred bible to followed by the translation’s title or abbreviation and pressing Enter. It’s that simple.
