I'm checking to see how others have handled Section Headings in Bible modules. I'm working to create some modules where I want to use Section Headings. However, sometimes the following scenario unfolds. The section heading is before verse 10, but I start with verse 12. Up until now I've been manually adding an /s line in the module, but I have to keep track to make sure the /s in the text match up with the /s in the Bible module as we continue to make improvements in the translation. An idea occurred to me that I could use the /inc line to include just the section heading without the text, but I just checked the documentation for the /inc line I don't see an option for text. That makes sense, but it would be nice to have an option to omit the text of the verse to just get the section heading. Does anyone else have a work-around for this kind of situation?

Really, it's going to be easiest to just add the text manually into the module and then trying to remember to make changes as the section heading gets edits.

But, you could probably import the entire verse with section heading, then remove ('replace') the actual verse text.

\ref MAT 1:10

\rep "the entire verse"=>""

That has the advantage that if the verse text is ever changed, you'll get an error message in your module telling you the \rep replacement no longer works (I think...).
