Question

How do I cite an online Bible on my works cited page?

Answer 1

MLA format maybe?

Answer 2

yes

Answer 3

u can use easybib.com if u haven't heard of it

Answer 4

yes, I did. It showed starting with the book of the Bible quoted rather than the Bible version as shown on the book citation example. Is that correct?

Answer 5

hm im not sure... i've only cited websites, not online books/bibles,etc

Answer 6

Hi!
Don't trust EasyBib. It's a machine; they make mistakes. Do you have a library at your institution?

Answer 7

I often use the Purdue OWL to verify citation styles. The main thing to keep in mind is that you should create the body of the citation based on the text version of the citation. All of the additional information that you need to add for a web-based book can be inserted into the correct place once you find it.

Answer 9

Whoops... this is the citation style one; not the in-text citation.

Answer 10

Finally, last but not least, Diana Hacker's guide...

19. Sacred text
Give the title of the edition of the sacred text (taken from the title page), italicized; the editor’s or translator’s name (if any); publication information; and the medium. Add the name of the version, if there is one.
