The Harmony Display / Parallel Generator is a combination Text Viewer, Harmony
Viewer, Topical Viewer, Table Generator, Module Creator, and more.
The Harmony Display / Parallel Generator features a new approach of viewing and
studying the Scriptures. In addition to displaying easily created parallel modules (.pll), it
can instantly generate parallel columns of text according to user input. For instance the
Generator can:
· Display easily created Harmony / Parallel (.pll) modules when a module and title is
selected.
· Instantly display a different Bible text when selected in the Bible Texts List.
· Display consecutive and non-consecutive ranges of text in a single column. For
example, Gen 3.15, 18-20, Psa 23, Isa 40.1-2, Jn 3.18-20, Rom 4.5 can be displayed
by simply typing, or pasting, it in the Entry Box.
· Adding the pipe symbol ( | ) between the references will cause them to be displayed
in a separate column. Paste the following into the Entry to see the difference,
· If a title is entered in the Title Entry Box the page will be saved in History and can be
redisplayed by using the navigation buttons or "Hist" Drop-Down List.
History and Saving History as Modules
Manually entered references will be saved in the History (Hist button) if they are given a
title. The History can be cycled with the two arrow buttons or a specific page displayed
when selected from the list made when the Hist button is pressed.
If there are pages in the History when Bible Analyzer closes, the option will be given to
save the pages as a new .pll Module or append an existing one. This way the user can
easily create their own Harmony / Parallel modules!
Making PLL Modules Manually
PLL modules can easily be made using a basic text editor such as Notepad or
Notepad++. Format the text as follows,
The first line must contain the title of the module. The remaining lines have the subject
and the reference(s) separated by a tab. If the references are to be displayed in separate
columns, the pipe symbol | must be inserted between them.
Below is an example of the Composite Gospel Index:
