While attaching a Hebrew Bible and Greek New Testament is one clear example, there are other cases when you may want to use Combined Texts. Here are some examples:

LXX1 & NA28-T: In this example, the LXX is displayed next to an Old Testament passage with NA28 displayed next to a New Testament passage.

BHQ & BHS-T: In this example, the BHQ is displayed for any available verses . When navigating to a verse not contained in the BHQ, the BHS-T fills in the gaps.

KJVS & KJVA: In this example, the KJVS is displayed for all verses in the Old and New Testaments, and the KJVA fills in for the Apocrypha.

WBC-OT & WBC-NT: In this example the Word Biblical Commentary is supplied in two modules; one for the Old Testament and one for the New Testament. When scrolling through the Old Testament the WBC-OT is displayed; when scrolling the New Testament, the WBC-NT is displayed.
