Bible in Shorthand

[Shaleto]

Note that in blosgspot.com there are two different websites that should not be confused:

greggshorthandbible.blogspot.com/

and

greggshorthandholybible.blogspot.com/

The difference is one has the word "holy" in the middle as part of its URL address.

You may want to check out both.

This is in response to a long discussion under the general board HERE and since there was a little activity and some differing opinions, I decided a sub topic board could be created.

---

Please note: If you feel like you would like a sub board on your religious text and books you'd like to write in shorthand and share here, I can do that, just let me know. I will create a sub forum in the Books in Shorthand just like this one.
I am going to take "admin" to the next level here. If I don't see it fit for the board, I will delete it. DM me if you have questions. I posted this below, but here's what I think since I'm the "admin" to this board: Please note: If you're "religion" is vastly different, I prefer this board to be family friendly (meaning at least PG-13), so you could also do a link to another board or blog if you'd like to have it there. I am NOT objectionable to any other religion or faith or belief. Again, I am willing to have a sub board like this one for you.

This entire forum is here because there was varying opinion of which bible version to use. For example, this site shows a variety of versions (this is for Matthew 1).

Also there was a discussion on which version of Gregg Shorthand to use.

This sub forum is to solve those problems.

Create a new thread for the version of the bible and Gregg Shorthand you will be using in writing the Bible in Gregg Shorthand.

Q&A:
Q-I want a sub forum on my religious text!? It's not really the "bible" and it's not Christian or whatever you want to call it.
A-See above, but the basic answer is I will do that for you.

Q-How will this stay in order of the Bible?
A-In your first post you can link the various chapters and verses written in the thread. So, for example, someone writes Matthew 5 and someone next writes Matthew 1, you will have links (I can help) in your first post of the order of the Bible of your choosing.

Q-I want my own thread with my own shorthand for the Bible? Bascialy I don't want help. I want to do this on my own but offer it to others to read.
A-Sure, just note that in the first post and hopefully others will be considerate.

Q-I want others to contribute to my thread, is that ok?
A-Yes. Please do so. Please remember that you will be the "Original Poster" and you will "OWN" that thread. This means when others contribute you may need to keep track. You will also have to update the first post on a regular basis. But this will allow you to be the "moderator" of that thread (let me know if anything needs done, just PM me).

Q-I forgot to put the bible and shorthand version in my subject heading, what now?
A-You can edit the first post or I will for you. PM me if you need me to do that for you. Remember, just something like "King James Version in Anniversary Edition" is sufficient.

Q-How do I add pictures and attachments?
A-See Adding or Viewing Images.

Q-I only know a little shorthand, what can I do to contribute?
A-Offer words you come across and use the shorthand dictionary from your version. It may be slow but you can go word by word and contribute it when you can.

Q-I have limited time, how can I help?
A-PM the originator of the post and ask what verses they would like written. Or offer some verses and see what they have. In most cases, one verse is all that is needed, the OP will decide on that but I think it's a good idea so it gets finished. Later the verses an be put in order.

Q-I want to contribute, but don't know where the writer is at in the Bible? Where do I start?
A-PM the originator of the post and ask what verses they would like written. Or offer some verses and see what they have.


Q-I just want to write some verses in shorthand and don't care where they go or what's being done. Can I do that and post them?
A-YES. If there are more then one person working on the same verse, it's possible they're using different versions of the bible or Gregg shorthand. Also it would be nice to see different handwriting of shorthand from various people.


Q-I've written some in shorthand, what do I do now?
A-Feel free to start a new thread, but other's may link to your thread if it fits in their their version of shorthand and their version of the bible. So remember, have the subject line with the bible and shorthand version in it.

Any other questions or thoughts, please let me know.

A-YES. If there are more then one person working on the same verse, it's possible they're using different versions of the bible or Gregg shorthand. Also it would be nice to see different handwriting of shorthand from various people.

ETA: If a person has that particular verse in mind, they may link to your post for others to read. But feel free to post it in an individual thread. I want all to participate, so don't feel like you have to go by a certain "moderator". However, I think it might be more fun to do this as a group, especially with your chosen Bible version and Gregg Shorthand version.

[Deb]

If there are any other questions, please post them. I tried to answer as many as I could, but someone might come up with another question I didn't think of.

[Deb]

Q-I am of a different religion and would like to contribute Gregg Shorthand notes, but not under this "bible" section. What do I do?

A-I can create a sub board for your religion. Please note: If you're "religion" is vastly different, I prefer this board to be family friendly (meaning at least PG-13), so you could also do a link to another board or blog if you'd like to have it there. I am NOT objectionable to any other religion or faith or belief. Again, I am willing to have a sub board like this one for you.

Hi Deb,

Can you create a sub board for me to do the Book of Mormon in Notehand?  It'd be fine if others contribute to it, too.

Hi Deb,

Since I'm here and have time, I created it all ready. Like I said I am open to other boards.

I did create a sticky with some loose rules HERE and I will use them on other boards as well. If others have suggestions to the "rules" please let me know.

I did specify and will on all board, that others are welcome to contribute, just like you said. Because that's what this board is. Again, if someone wants to do it on a blog or somewhere else, they can and have their own rules.

[washbear]

Thanks so much!  This will help motivate me to practice.  Thanks again!

[Deb]

That's great!

Q-Where is a good place to do my own shorthand religious text, I don't want to use this board?

A-Three options I can think of below.

1-Another ProBoards forum would work. It's free. They're easy to create, easy to manage, easy to moderate. Plus you have a lot of options for boards, sub board (and even sub-sub-boards). Can be kept private with only members viewing and/or posting or open to the public to post. I keep mine open for the public to view and only post in the General Board.

2-Blogs.
Blogger is a good place. It's free. It is a "blog" not necessarily a forum so it might work out for this. There is another Gregg Shorthand that is on Blogger. Since it's Google owned it will probably stay up as long as Google sees fit and probably forever (I don't see Google company going anywhere any time soon).
Word press is another blog. It will let you use your own name in the URL. It's fairly easy (I think Blogger is easier).

3-Anywhere you want or find helpful for yourself.

Q-Where can I post a link?

A-We have a links board, please specify what it is about and a little more. I do delete links that look like spam or anything not associated with Shorthand.

You can also post it in here if you'd like, that's fine. Again, I will moderate and please be a little specific, I may not want to click on the link

[Deb]

There's video for another religious text, Book of Mormon, and in it, the person writing it in Gregg Shorthand did different colors for each verse. Might be an idea. There are some bibles that have what Jesus Christ says in red. That's also an option.

A 1747 book on internet achieve here, had a lot of bible verses, including some in different languages, and I liked the way they laid out the verses. You can do the same in a shorthand notebook or a piece of paper if you'd like.

Debbie, This is a copy of what I posted in the General section of your forum. Please check bibleinshorthand.blogspot.com where you will be able to read passages from the "King James Bible, Authorized" version in Anniversary Gregg shorthand. This is not the "New King James Bible" which has similarities but is not the same. As I am beginning to wet my feet in blogging, there are too many things I need to learn, but check it out. It is not typographic, but pure handwriting, yet I think you can understand it. Best of all, you can compare it with an English KJB Bible! Some of your students might like it. As time goes by I will keep posting more and more verses. I will post Psalms and New testament passages as well.

Thanks for checking!
