Webster Bible Electronic Format.
PUBLIC DOMAIN
February 1992
Beginning in July of 1991 the task of placing the Webster Bible text
in electronic format began. The original purpose was to provide Larry
Pierce, who produces the On-Line Bible program, with a more modern
*public domain* text, similar in content and style to the AV but with
a grammar that would provide better comprehension in todays English.
I plan on maintaining an accurate copy of the Webster text. Anyone
finding an error should contact me; Anyone desiring to obtain the
latest, most correct text, can find it on the Bible Foundation BBS, or
can contact me in the following methods:

I would like to thank the Bible Foundation not only for scanning
nearly the entire Webster Bible but for encouraging me to undertake
this monumental work; particularly around page 20 when I realized what
I had gotten myself into. Special thanks to Jerry Kingery of the Bible
Foundation for scanning, and Jerry Hastings for doing some preliminary
scan cleaning and making the texts available on the BBS.

WARNING: If you live in a persecuted country and
do not wish to risk detection you should NOT use this package!
