Erwin, this is one of the finest additions to the site ever -- and that in no way belittles any of your other improvements. I've found that it makes documenting a point by reference to Scripture so infinitely more easy than it had been, that words fail to express the value.
That said, there's a potential bug, with a workaround, that you should know about:
If you quote a given Bible passage using the [ bible] tag, and then edit your post, the displayed boxed Scripture text turns into run-on text as if part of your typed post, not as if quoted. I'll quote John 3:16 below, then copy this paragraph into another post and edit it, to show you want I mean.
[bible]John 3:16[/bible]
The workaround is to delete the text of the Scripture quote when you edit, and re-embed the [ bible] code, as though you were preparing a new post using it.
It's easy enough to do the workaround but I thought you might want a note documenting the bug.

Duplicate of a paragraph from the previous post, for demo purposes:

John 3:16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

You may now add [ bible] verse here [/bible] tags in your post to automatically insert bible verses.

Here are some examples on how to use the tags:
To return a single verse:

To return an entire chapter:

Erwin, I had some problems with a few "cloud" verses---the tags do not want to take with this verse:
I Corinthians 10:1-2:
Verse not found. !!!!!!:
I Corinthians 10:1-2????
I cannot make the tags work on this verse unless I write it in like this:
I Corinthians 10:1-2:
Verse not found. !!!!!!:
I Corinthians 10:1-2????
I cannot make the tags work on this verse unless I write it in like this:
The Bible said:
The Bible said:VERSES NOT FOUND FOR THE FOLLOWING AS WELL:
(Revelations10:1)(Revelations 11:12,Revelations14:14-16)???
