New Module - Book of Concord (Bente, Triglotta ed.)
More fun for Lutherans out there. I finally finished cleaning up an edition of Bente's Book of Concord, a public domain text which is available at the Book of Concord website. Of course this edition is spruced up a little bit more, with the most useful part for BibleWorks users being the fact that the Book of Concord Scripture references will now link up in BibleWorks in the Resource Summary Window.There are a few spotty places where the links don't work completely (a large number of them come at the end of the Small Catechism), because the links are for entire chapters rather than specific verses. I may get these cleaned up in the future, but it's not a really high priority on my list right now because of other things I have going. The files are certainly available for others to edit, correct and tweak.
If there is anyone ambitious enough to make more Concord-related files out there available, let me know. I'm currently working on a lectionary commentary project, but if anyone knows if there would be any copyright issues with making a module out of Bul's Notes, let me know. I'd love to add that to the bunch.

Michael, how challenging might it be to do the same thing with the original German as you did with Bente's English version? It looks to me as if the German is available in html here:
http://www.immanuel-gemeinde-steeden.de/bekenntnis.html
This would be possible. However, I would like some verification as to the source of the e-text. It was not readily apparent to me what printed edition this is based on. Also if I do it, it would take quite a while to get verse references corrected again because they use the 1,1 format instead of 1:1 and I hadn't quite figured out a way to make those work well without changing them all by hand.
