Starting with this piece of Scripture I would like to extract just the
contents of verse 1. I have the start of the verse and verseEnd
identified. Is there an easy way of doing the extraction? I know I can
change it all to a verse centric model and do the extraction but in
this
paragraph centric model is it possible?
Ohh, I started working on it thinking you wanted to mingle it. Anyway,
let me ask a question that has to do with your structure there, do you
mean you want to get verse 1 with the structure shown above, or verse 1
with something like this structure:
<chapter id="BCV-GEN-1" to="BCV-GEN-1-END" value="1"/>
<head>The Story of#Creation</head>
<p>
<verse id="BCV-GEN-1.1" to="BCV-GEN-1.1-END" value="1"/>In
the
beginning, when God created the universe,
<verseEnd id="BCV-GEN-1.1-END" from="BCV-GEN-1.1"/>
<verse id="BCV-GEN-1.2" to="BCV-GEN-1.2-END" value="2"/>the
earth was formless and desolate. The raging ocean that covered
everything
was engulfed in total darkness, and the ...... <verseEnd
id="BCV-GEN-1.2-END" from="BCV-GEN-1.2"/> </p> <chapterEnd
id="BCV-GEN-1-END" from="BCV-GEN-1"/>
?
In doing this do you want to be able to get a verse out by id, or are
you thinking you just want to get the first verse? I'm also assuming
that you want to get verse 1 'inside' of chapter 1 right?
