Usage
[සංස්කරණය]This template is used to provide sources for verse references for the Hebrew Bible, or Tanakh. It is a wrapper for {{Bibleverse}}.
This template creates an external link. The external links content guideline states that external links "should not normally be used in the body of an article". Furthermore, the use of inline parenthetical referencing is now deprecated on Wikipedia. Place external links to the Bible in footnotes, but be aware that the Hebrew Bible may be considered a primary source, which should be used with care in sourcing Wikipedia articles.
Code format:
{{Tanakhverse|Bible book name|c:v–c:v}}
- Example
{{Tanakhverse|Genesis|1:1}}yields: Genesis 1:1
- Shorthand can be used for the names, such as 1 Sam or Deut. See the Chicago Manual of Style for other acceptable abbreviations.
- Verse references may be simplified (for example, no range or entire chapter).
Version
[සංස්කරණය]This template defaults to the Hebrew–English parallel MT and JPS 1917 as available at Mechon Mamre.
The other versions available via {{Bibleverse}} may also be used with this template, using the syntax {{Tanakhverse|Bible book name|c:v–c:v|version}}. For more information, see the documentation page for {{Bibleverse}}.
