Question

I am looking Ideas for locating all numbers in the NT to check whether we rendered them with numbers or with words. Do you have any suggestions? I'd like to make sure we render numbers consistently.

Answer 1

1. Click your project to make it the selected project.
2. Click the tab menu icon in your project, then from the Tools menu, select Biblical Terms.
3. Click the tab menu icon in the Biblical Terms tool, then from the Biblical Terms menu, select Open biblical terms list.
4. In the Open biblical terms list dialog, select Numbers, and then click OK.
5. In the Biblical Terms tool, do the following:
•    Set the Current Biblical Terms Filter to All terms.
•    Click the Verses filter drop-down arrow, and select Choose.
    In the Choose dialog, click Deselect All, then select New Testament, and click OK.
The Biblical Terms tool will display a list of every place in the New Testament where a number is expected to occur.

NOTE: If you decide to use digits for the numbers, decide what your number settings will be (click the tab menu icon in your project, then from the Project menu, point to Project settings, and select Number settings. In the Number Settings dialog, decide on the settings you want, and then click OK).
Having decided on your number settings, you can use the Numbers check to check for consistency (click the tab menu icon in your project, then from the Tools menu, select Run basic checks. In the Run Basic Checks dialog, select Numbers, and click OK).

Answer 2

In the Biblical Terms tool you can select a list called Numbers. This is numbers in the NT. Hopefully that will help you.
