BLB: How to View Multiple Verses from Different Passages All at Once

Posted on Posted by

Have you ever tried to view or copy multiple verses from different Bible passages all at once, but didn’t know how?

Let me give you an example of when you would use this. In the “Atonement” chapter of Wayne Grudem’s Systematic Theology, there is a section that says:

“…all the blessings of salvation, including faith, repentance, and all of the works of the Holy Spirit in applying redemption, were also secured by Christ’s redemptive work specifically for his people. Those for whom he earned forgiveness also have had those other benefits earned for them ( cf. Eph. 1:3-4; 2:8; Phil. 1:29).”

Now, let’s say you read this good bit of theology and think, “I would like to see those verses on the Blue Letter Bible.” But instead of looking them up one at a time, you want to see them all at once.

Here’s how…

The BLB Multiple Verse Retrieval

1. Click on the “search” button in the left sidebar of the homepage…

 2. A list of search tools will appear on the page. Click on the Multiple Verse Retrieval option…

3. When the Multiple Verse Retrieval box appears, enter the passages you would like to be listed…

4. The results will display in the same order you entered the Bible passages…

  1. My thanks to you Chris, I always appreciate another way to use the BLB for my study of God’s word, I pray God continue to use the BLB as a tool for making it easier to understand God and His plan for us.

  2. Thank you for this tip, Chris. I often feel that I’m missing out on the many nuances programmed in to this site. This is a great tool, and I’m sure I’ll use it, now that I know it’s there! 🙂

  3. Genius. I love it. It will be such a great help with bible study. Another way to love and appreciate BLB. Many thanks

  4. Matthew i seriously think you should seek medical attention!! You are ruining something good with your craziness!! You seem like the damsel that kept screaming these are the servants of the most High God….it sounded Good but it frustrated Paul and He rebuked the devil!! I read this every day you leave like 14 comments completely off topic….Start a blog man post your comments there…or maybe you should seek serious Counseling.

    • Matthew,

      I’m sorry, but I am also a little concerned with your postings. Obviously you have a heart to share the Word, and although I don’t agree with everything you write, there have been some of your posts in which I learned something. As Christians, we are to write things that are pleasing to our Lord and edifying to other believers, so it is very difficult to know whether to write a criticism of a fellow believer.

      You absolutely have the same right to express your opinions as everyone else, and no one is disputing that. However, I must agree with Concerned, at least as far as the number of posts you send and the fact that so many of them are off topic, because it almost seems like this is your blog rather than a specific forum facilitated by Chris. Perhaps you could just limit the number of posts you send in. I also think that Concerned has a good idea about your starting your own blog. That way, you could share all that is on your heart and engage in dialogue about your insights.

      I hope you receive this in the spirit in was given.

      Be blessed~
      Barbara

  6. Matthew,

    I see your heart is to encourage.
    What you’ve done above is called an improper Hermeneutic. Roman’s 1:19-20 is about Unbelievers.
    You must read the context bro. If we take scripture out of context and apply it the wrong way we can hurt alot of people(this is what cults do). Keep searching the Word of God you’ll find who you’re looking for. Your desire is in the right place to serve people with truth.

    A friend in deed.
