Phrases and Connections

Phrases Version 1.0 November 2008

 

If you are here, it is because I told you about my work on connections and links in the Bible. 

One powerful method of our study of the Bible involves finding connections — connections between books of the Bible, and connections to other literature written at the same time. 

We also seek connections between the world of the Bible and the cultural climate in which its events took place.  This is the field of archaeology and history.  In those studies, we are seeking connections between the Bible and its world.

To that end, I wrote the Windows software Phrases.  I wrote this in C++ in November 2008 as another attempt at trying to explore the Bible. 

Basic Instructions: 

Download Phrases (link to left) and each Bible file you want.  Put all the files in the same directory then run:

    phrases Revelation.txt Psalm2.txt 10 .6

Where .6 means to locate matches that have 60% in common, and 10 is the number of words within which that 60% must occur.
