I see the description for “Portions” says “one or more whole books”.

What are the definitions for Selections or Shorter Bible?

Thanks,

Best answer

Selections are usually selected passages from one or more books, not including a whole book.

I don’t have a precise definition of a Shorter Bible, but I would imagine it refers to a kind of anthology including both OT and NT books. The distinction between a Shorter Bible and the various “portions” options is somewhat fuzzy.
