On-Line Reference Materials FastSearch
Enter a word or phrase to locate. The list below gives examples of searches. The first option returns the most matches, the last option returns the least. Word1,Word2,... will return references from all references which have either Word1 or Word2 in them. Word1;Word2;... is similar to the comma separated search, but both words must appear somewhere in the book for any matches from it to be shown. Word1#Word2#... returns references where Word2 follows Word1 in a particular topic. Everything else is treated as an exact phrase to match. Words/Phrase to search for:

Each reference source is formatted with one topic per line, so any match in any part of a topic will retrieve the entire topic. This permits HTML links to be retreived intact by the search engine and permits scripture references directly from the results page.

If you are searching for commonly used words, we strongly recommend that you don't check the view box. The search results will give the file the match was found in along with a link to and approximate size of the topic in which the match was found. You can then narrow your search yourself without having to wait for a potentially very large file download with the complete text of every topic or Bible definition containing the selected word. Most topics are in the 5 to 10 kByte range. However, be aware that topics such as God or Jesus are in the 200 kByte range, so when searching for words or phrases likely to be used in these topics it is especially good to preview the results yourself.

There are default limits to the number of topics per file (25) and total number of files (50) if using this form. If you get a message in the search results that files or lines were exceeded, the detailed search form can provide options to increase these limits.
