I want to know how to encode a link to a Bible verse in a TEI

this. External references are like so:
<xr type="xref"><ref target="work:key">key text</ref></xr>
But the wiki says to use osisRef. Should it be identical in form to
an OSIS reference element like so:
<reference osisRef="Jer.32.39">Jer 32:39</reference>
Or what?
Use <ref> with osisRef. It's visible in the Wiki again. The examples
on that page were obscured by the recent addition of <ref> tag
support in the Wiki.
Chris,
In the example, you are giving KJV as the work. Are we still of the
mindset that a reference without the work or with a work of Bible
refers to verse?
In the light of versification and that many biblical references refer
to specific works that might not be an installed module, let alone a
module at all, what should the behavior be? For example a German
commentary refers to a verse in Malachi that is not in the KJV v11n?
Should we use a different variant of work that includes the
versification:
Bible.Vul.xxx:ref
That way, if the xxx module is not installed, we can grab another
Bible with the Vul versification.
In Christ,
DM
