• Daniel Whedon's Bible Commentary -- I believe that that Spurgeon and his contemporaries liked Whedon's Commentary better than Clarke's. This was converted from the e-Sword Version.  Unfortunaely, the e-Sword Version has Images as well as Hebrew and Greek Words, all of which could not be inserted into the TXT for use with FORGE.  This then may have some strange characters here and there but the text is still readable.  Sometime in the New Year I will redo this and remove all of the gobble-de-gook.  It is easy, but takes some time.  Just won't have the time to do this until next year.  In the meantime, I have included the TXT used with FORGE to compile this module.  Until next year I hope that anyone tinkering with this TXT file has fun.  This is a large module.

• The Bible of the Expositor and the Evangelist by William Bell Riley (1861-1947) A thorough and Great Expository Commentary on the Bible.  Riley was called the "The Grand Old Man of Fundamentalism." Riley is credited with coining the term “fundamentalist,” and believed in the literal interpretation of the Bible wherever possible. He believed in a literal 6 day creation, that heaven and hell literally exist, that the miracles in the Old and New Testaments literally happened, and that Revelation and applicable portions of OT prophecy will literally happen. Riley's rigid, conservative approach to Scripture earned him accolades from allies and criticism from opponents. His critics complained that his rigid beliefs contributed to the religious polarization of American society. His allies appreciated his opposition to modernism. Riley vehemently opposed evolution, which he called the “propaganda of infidelity, palmed off in the name of science.” Riley began preaching through the entire Bible in 1923 and it took him over 10 years.   This module was converted from the IPAD Version for the e-Sword  Bible Program by Rick Meyers.

• Bob Utley - "You Can Understand The Bible" - Commentary on the entire Bible.  Just created this by converting the .CMTI (Ipad) Version to a simple .TXT File for use with the SwordSearcher Utility "FORGE."   FORGE compiled this Commentary Module without any Error Messages.  Spent some time removing some of the formatting problems in the text, which meant I had to re-compile the module until it was "suitable" enough to Post on here for downloading.  I comipiled this and told FORGE to make it a user-editable Commentary.  That way it will be easier to simply edit any errors without having to re-compile the module.  Plus, this allows a SS user to add "Improved" and "Scriptural" content and sorta "TWEAK" the module for a more personalized  use.  This SwordSearcher Commentary may still have a few minor text errors which are easy to correct if you have the .TXT File--- then you can re-compile using the FORGE Utility for SwordSearcher.  Last updated: 10/20/2022.
