A good while ago a patch was applied for these extra books.

There's probably no need to create a language file or a versification
file in case you just need to create Sword modules. But in case you'd
like to create these, some info about that is in the online help, the
How to ... section, or else search for "mapping" in the online help.

The import raw text option would be the only option to get html text
into Bibledit, but it may be a bit of work to get that done. It probably
does not work automatically, and some manual labour would be required.
How does your html text look?

If these texts are like commentaries, that have books, chapters, and
verses more or less aligned to the Biblical ones, then it should be
possible even without creating any mapping or languges or versification
files, just take e.g. the "English" language, or another one that fits.

A good place to start would be the menu, File / Project / New, and to
take it from there. Biblical text is typed in a "Project".

Hope it works out,
