The document discusses external links in BibleWorks, which allow users to create right-click links from the browse window to external resources like other programs or online sources. External links can link to verse references, words, or morphological forms/lemmas in Hebrew, Greek, English or Latin. It provides examples of creating external links to lookup Greek words on the Perseus LSJ site and to view Bible verses on online versions like Good News and CEV.
