2.0 out of 5 stars A great full library with annoying bugs., November 12, 2007

This review is from: Quickverse Mac Bible Study 2007 Gold Box (CD-ROM)

The Gold Box version of QuickVerse Mac offers pretty much every Bible translation that anyone could want (except the NIV, which is available separately). In addition to those offered in the Black Box version, the New American Standard Bible, Revised Standard Version, and Living Bible are probably the most popular translations added.

The other books and reference materials are excellent, and would be great for any pastor or Sunday School teacher who might need some inspiration for sermons or studies. They also should prove valuable for personal study and growth.

However, there are some technical problems with this version at the time of this writing. First, some of the Bible versions don't play well with the others. The NASB, for example, cannot be viewed in parallel with other versions. Also, searching for the occurance of certain words in some Bible versions fails to list some. For example, searching for the word "confess" does not show that it occurs in James 5:16. Searching for "looking" and "Jesus" should return at least 8 instances, but only reveals 2. "Looking to Jesus" reveals none in a search of the ESV, even though Heb. 12:12 has that exact phrase!

Such bugs occur in at least five Bible translations, perhaps more.

Assuming that these bugs are fixed, this will be awesome software. Until they are, this software is of use only if you want to read a vast library. It is of little use for study or sermon preparation.
