Hi Joe

Yes, you can do this. To use your Bible example, you could do tiddlers 
"Matthew 1:1" "Matthew 1:2" etc, then have a "Matthew 1" chapter tiddler 
where you insert 

{{Matthew 1:1}} 
{{Matthew 1:2}} etc.

You could also have the commentary and notes for Matthew 1:1 in a tiddler 
tagged "Matthew 1:1", and set your tiddlers up with a viewtemplate so that 
those appear below the text, but not in the chapter tiddler.
