Talk:Chiasm

⮜ Templates Reference

This template allows you to create a chiasm structure. Each level of the chiasm is formatted on its own line. The first parameter is the label (e.g. A, B, C'). The second parameter is the indent level. The third parameter is the scripture text.

Example:

{{:Chiasm|A|1|{{#scripture:Lev 24:17}}}}
{{:Chiasm|B|2|{{#scripture:Lev 24:18}}}}
{{:Chiasm|C|3|{{#scripture:Lev 24:19}}}}
{{:Chiasm|D|4|{{:Erasesentencefromend|{{#scripture:Lev 24:20}}|1}}}}
{{:Chiasm|C'|3|{{:Erasesentence|{{#scripture:Lev 24:20}}|1|...}}}}
{{:Chiasm|B'|2|{{:Erasesentencefromend|{{#scripture:Lev 24:21}}|1|...}}}}
{{:Chiasm|A'|1|{{:Erasesentence|{{#scripture:Lev 24:21}}|1|...}}}}

Which outputs: A 17 “‘He who strikes any man mortally shall surely be put to death. Leviticus 24:17WEB B 18 He who strikes an animal mortally shall make it good, life for life. Leviticus 24:18WEB C 19 If anyone injures his neighbor, it shall be done to him as he has done: Leviticus 24:19WEB D 20 fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth.

Leviticus 24:21WEB A' 21 ... and he who kills a man shall be put to death. Leviticus 24:21WEB
