Hi Dave

Great stuff, I've probably said this before, but I think that Bible study
is a terrific use case for TiddlyWiki. Whatever else is going on, it is a
big, rich, complicated text that repays study at many different layers,
making it a good example of a topic that is just too complicated to fit
inside most peoples brains in its entirety. It seems that Bible study can
often be an intensely personal journey, too, and so it seems useful that
TiddlyWiki provides a safe, private environment. Maybe the ability to work
on a TiddlyWiki with ones network turned off is a useful contemplative
tool, too.

It's this intersection between the complex and the personal that seems to
fit TiddlyWiki so well.

I also note that the Bible resonated with one of the core philosophies of
TiddlyWiki: to make complex information tractable we slice it up into the
smallest semantic units, and give them sequence, titles and tags to enable
us to refer to them. That seems to me to be reflected in the structure of
the Bible as verses, chapters, books, with much the same motivation.

Best wishes

Jeremy.
