Module Preferences

You can set the default modules for various functions of MacSword. The "Bible for services and references" is used to provide biblical cross-references in commentaries and is the default bible used for services in other applications.

The dictionaries provide the default tool-tip and inline references for morphological tags and Strongs numbers.

The daily devotional is used for "Today's Devotion" from the file menu and can be automatically opened.


You can choose the location MacSword looks for modules by either typing in the path location, or by clicking "Choose...". Changes are only effective on restarting MacSword.


MacSword can cache dictionaries contents and lexicons keys. This speeds up the opening of lexicons and dictionaries, especially some as large as Websters Dictionary. Highly recommended. It does use some disk space, and the caches are stored in "~/Library/Application Support/MacSword" .
