So true! Now it's exciting in a way that I push myself to read a bit more to get ahead. I just started but I'm really enjoying it, so far I'm a day ahead.

Hi Chris, came across this as a fairly new user of Logos with a huge library getting ready to start in master's work that might be multidimensional-- some practical/counseling, some theology, etc. I love research but have organizational issues. Someone recommended Zettelkasten Method as she is working on her PhD. I am not super tech oriented. Do you think I could manage lots of connections between material/ideas within Logos for longer term research? Does it have a way to work with bringing in articles? She also mentioned Zotero. She helped me identify that I have a research type personality that sees a lot of connections... but the issue is I also see A LOT of connections and sometimes have trouble categorizing information or being fearful I won't be able to remember where it is to retrieve it. My desktop both physical and computer is a mess. TIA for any input.

Thanks for this. I might try and reach out to Josh because, try as I might, I just can't understand how to use the script in order to download the CSB bible. I don't have one of those brains, I guess, and goodness knows I've tried. But I do thank you for getting me started.

Thanks for your videos 😎

Awesome video, I've started using Obsidian a few weeks ago and consciously stopped importing my notes from Notion and Evernote because I was confused as to which was the best way to organize them. So many videos on RUclips about Zettelkasten, PARA, MOCs, but I've struggled to find a concise enough video explaining in detail when to use links, tags and folders. I'm very grateful you made this video as it now allows me to confidently import thousands of notes taken from years of work and reading, and knowing that I won't have to waste days and weeks of my life trying to re-organize notes because I started making connections between notes the wrong way (using tags instead of links because I saw a video showing claiming it was superior). I think that this tool is very subjective, and can be adapted to fit different personalities and workflows, but the learning curve is quite high and most of the content requires understanding a lot of concepts before knowing which system of organization works for you. Thanks for your help, and keep up the great work!

I think that using obsidian to study religious scripture is one of the best use cases for it and I believe it will further the religious studies. Especially with linking notes or verses and looking at graph view

This is great. I am muslim and I have the exact same issue of citing the scripture. Religious People have common interests 😀

There is a free LOGOS starter version.

awful music, awful sound

Thanks. I got a lot of good ideas. One request : you are a personable guy but I can barely see text on the monitor when you split the screen between you talking and the monitor. I have to move closer to my screen and squint.

Thanks

I appreciate this, so helpful....I have been marinating on having a bible with my own notes in obsidian....for a long time...I know and love bible softwares like Logos or Accordance....but I just feel that one day they could upscale them to prices I am not able to afford or retire features or whatever and incapacitate some of us...quick question though....for this bible and creating my own notes....should I have the Bible on its own vault...or can it plus the notes share the main default vault.... God bless you Chris....I am grateful

Incredible, this is how I am taking my bible notes from now on

Fantastic!!! Exactly what I was hoping to find, thanks brother

Thank you!!!!

I'm so scared to move away from folders for categorising my ideas and moving to a new system without folders and just relying on links and tags. Have you any advice for me.

Thanks this was quick and helpful!

how do I do this with learning Greek? Fully mobile? S Pen capable?

What I really want is an Android equivalent to Pencil Bible. Logos puts their tech behind a massive paywall that only mega Church pastors can afford because of Church budgets. I do not want a pdf equivalent because it is limited given my desire to continue to learn the original languages. Thoughts?

The biggest advantage of a digital Bible vs a paper Bible is I carry around my iPad and it has ALL my resources and access to the entire internet of resources within an easily carried unit. No bulky resource books. No stuffed pencil bag. The biggest advantage of a digital Bible vs an E-BOOK BIBLE is the ability to add pages, write directly on the page, and add decorations if you like to Bible "journal". I solved the problem of finding a version by making my own. Yes, it took me a while and, in truth, I’m still tweaking it, but it is serving my needs. I can do portrait, landscape, landscape with 2 pages so I can read on one side and make notes on the other. I can have a reference resource on one side and the Bible on the other.

I love this video! Seeing how you document your entire thought process is so helpful for me because I tend to hold it all in my mind, which gets hard to maintain over time. Thanks!

How did you get those little gray link squares with the numbers in them around the 2:26 mark? They just popped up but no explanation. Seems really helpful.

Hi Chris, thank you so much for this video, I'm just starting out with Obsidian for my digital Bible study notes, how do I get the little annotations to show the notes you've made that link to that verse? I don't have seem to have any such option?

Amazing breakdown!

Thanks for this video Chris! I was just thinking this morning what if I applied my Zettelkasten system to bible reading and you popped up! Thanks for the insights & inspiration.

Great video! The NIV is my favourite translation, I like how easy it is to understand, and it has a good balance between formal and dynamic equivalence.

No need for music. Very difficult to hear you over the music

All bibles have been magically changed and none of them are still trustworthy.

Honestly, I can't understand how the application can add anything to Logos. If I already have Logos, with all the features integrated, why would I need another application to try to do something that Logo already does? I can't understand how Obsidian can be useful if I already have Logos?

Thank you for all your videos; I greatly benefited from them. As a theological student, could you help me by teaching me how to convert Obsidian notes to an assignment?

Have you ever thought of spending some time studying the Quran like this? Or the Bhagavad Gita?

I'm a very new Obsidian user. After watching this I made a rule: a note can't go in a folder unless it has a link both in and out. Otherwise it stays in the inbox.

Thanks for sharing! What do you mean by notes on people?

Hi may I know where to get a copy of the markdown version of the ESV?

Hi Chris, just came across your channel. I've been looking for something like this. I was starting to use Good Notes, and it's okay, but I have to "create my own Bible," so to speak, in order to put scripture in and then put my notes across from the verse(s) I want the note to be about. I told my husband I am struggling with finding something that would allow me to write as much as I want in a note but still attach it to a specific section of scripture/verses, etc. I just recently got an iPad and was hoping to use it there, but I think you mentioned that it's not available for mobile devices. I need to learn how to use Obsidian more to see if it really is going to work for what I'm looking to do. I have considered Logos, but it's so complicated, and I feel like I have to take a class just to learn the program. I do love all the resources that I use, but the notes section is lacking, in my opinion. I did see another video on Canvas Candy. Do you recommend it? Are there any other things you would recommend getting for Obsidian? I also prefer digital, but I would like the ability to print out everything and have a hard copy, just in case something happens with technology. Are you able to do this in Obsidian? Thank you so much for your videos, your patience, and your willingness to help.

Thank you for providing this information! It is exactly what I was looking for.

Nice video, thank you!

I would have thought that linking all the verses in between was useless unless your Bible is formatted as each verse is its own note. If the Bible is set up as each chapter is its own file (as you have it), then as long as you link the starting and end verse, you won’t loose out on the relevance of the in between verses. Just check your back links while reading the passage

Christians struggle to read The Holy Bible at an atheist’s pace. It’s too moving. We slow done. Well done, thanks for sharing

Just ran across this old video while searching for an alternative to using Evernote for my bible study notes. Wondering if Obsidian can link to and from external online resources like Blue Letter Bible. So, instead of populating the bible text in Obsidian, I'd be interested in setting up links to and from the URLs for the verse(s) in Blue Letter Bible. Would this be possible with Obsidian?

Very nice.

You can select a Bible verse on Logos or a text from a book, then go to the tree dots on the top right. Once the tab is open, you scroll down then you will see several options to copy that text: URL, HTML, L4, etc. If you choose the URL or L4, you can then go and type something on obsidian, select that texto, then press cmd+k, and paste the url. Then you have the option to open that link in Logos.

I wanted to hear you better brother over the music… I’m thinking of buying this one. T. Y. for your opinions ❤

I love it…I’ve been using it since 2019. It’s invaluable.

You touched on this a tad here 2:56 but here is another option for consideration. You can always link to one verse but then give the link itself an alias so that you can link to the specific verse but see the context in your link. For example ([[Rom-12#v2|Romans 12:1-2]]) will just show up as (Romans 12:1) but when you click on the passage it will take you to verse two in your vault. Like you said, there is no easy and perfected way with this system quite yet. For me, these aliases have helped me make a point in teaching. For example, I can say "Paul talks about being transformed in Romans 12:1-2. Notice specifically verse 2..." etc but this is another possible solution that has worked for me so far.

Obsidian is nowhere close to Logos. Been using Logos even before it became Logos. Yes it is expensive if you want everything in it. If you haven’t tried Logos, you should. They have payment plans to. Start small.

Thanks for the comparison video. Logos Bible is good for detailed and specific research. But for a general overview, I think Obsidian is better. It would be wise to keep it simple and summarized so you don't get tired. In my case, I also use zotaro (PDF MANAGE PROG) in parallel. This's how I use books that isn't on Logos
