Being man-devised, such a system is not perfec t.
In
some
p~aceB,
'Stephens
t
divisions are inaccurate and tend
to break the sense of the subject. Because of such imperfec–
tions, a new system of supplementing the chapter-verse division
with paragraph arrangements has been adopted in many of t he
newer revisions of the Bible. This often helps the reader t o
bet t er comp:rehend the .subject matter.
It must always be remembered that these div1s:1on
systems were not inspired by God. They have been devised
Ez
men to provide an aid for studying the Bible.
