do you know of a blogging platform that would facilitate the collaborative writing of a commentary on the Bible?
it sounds like a pretty simple thing that should exist already.
If so, wouldn't it be cool for hermeneutics.SE to have a sister site housing a commentary on the Bible being collaboratively edited by members of this site
And they could cross link to each other
and hopefully drive more traffic to hermeneuitcs.SE
What I'm thinking about is more than a blog...I'm thinking about a net.bible.org UI where on one pane you have the Bible text and on the other pane you have a commentary wiki
The idea being that people would go to this site to read a bible with commentary just like they might go to net.bible.org or biblegateway to read a bible with commentary

Poking around over there, it seems like they don't exert any editorial control and linking somewhere else in the notes isn't against the terms of service. I'm not sure yet if a link from there to here will be worth the effort, but I don't think it could hurt.
There's a lot of confusion about the Bible out there.
