Quotation marks should now be done through 1 Kings 12:12.

Updates are at the usual places:
http://eBible.org/web/ for the World English Bible, and
http://eBible.org/hnv/ for the World English Bible: Messianic Edition 
(AKA the Hebrew Names Version).

We have also added a definition for "marriage" (according to the 
meaning it has in the Bible) to the WEB glossary. It seems that 
certain judges and politicians would like to use some of satan's 
definitions instead of God's intentions.

Since the very beginning of this project, one of our goals was to 
remain accessible by email to anyone with comments on the World 
English Bible. As a result, we have received:
 * Many valuable comments, typo reports, and suggestions
 * Some marginally useful comments
 * Some comments by people who have honest questions or
    misunderstandings
 * Some really off-the-wall and bizarre comments
 * Lots of spam
 * Lots of virus mail

The first two categories, of course, are of great value. The third, we 
try to help. The last three categories of messages get deleted.

We have maintained three stable, functioning email addresses: 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] for World English Bible comments, 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] for WEB:ME comments, and [EMAIL PROTECTED] to 
contact me. Except for a few short outages, these addresses have 
worked fairly reliably until now. Unfortunately, the latest laws 
against spam, and in particular against the use of deceptive headers 
in email, are no more effective at stopping this activity than laws 
against stealing and killing have stopped those activities. In the 
last few days, some spammers have illegally been using those stable 
email addresses as the "return-path" of their messages. That means 
that thousands of bounce messages from undeliverable spam messages 
have been coming back to me, choking my slow, expensive Internet 
connection to the point where I can no longer guarantee that any mail 
sent to those addresses will get to the right places. (Cheap broadband 
Internet connections don't exist in Papua New Guinea, yet. Neither 
does McDonald's.) Anyway, until such time as this criminal 
misappropriation of these email addresses ceases, mail to those 
addresses will result in an autoresponder message giving you an 
alternate email address that isn't under attack.

Please pray that the email attacks will subside.
