I have pasted the sentence below but keep in mind the actual words bolded are actual greek that doesn't cut and paste here. It just shows the problem. The actual text at the end of Chapter XIX, is here https://archive.org/details/antenicenefather03robeuoft/page/488/mode/1up?view=theater

The Greek term for beginning, which is apxy, admits the sense not only of priority of order, but of power as well; whence princes and magistrates are called hpxovreq. Therefore ir this sense too, beginmng may he taken for princely authority and power. It was, indeed, in His transcendent authority and power, that God made the heaven and the earth.
Any advice ?
Here's a version you could try to imitate:

Section 11

1:09:15

Is uploaded and ready for PL.

I note its a good bit longer than the others and slightly over the 1 hr limit the file checker states is the max. If you want I can move some of the content of file 11 into file 10 and even them out with out much work. Just needing a update to MW section titles for 10 and 11. Or if you are fine with it I'm fine too.

Section 12 PL Notes:
  • 00:00 The volume of this track is 86.68dB. LV requires the overall volume for the track (measured by ReplayGain - you can try this tool if you want to check the volume) to be between 86-92dB (with 89dB being the ideal). The file falls within the outer ends of that range and so doesn't need to be changed but watch that it doesn't end up outside the range. The easiest way to automatically set the volume is to use the 'Loudness Normalization' effect (set to -19LUFS in 'perceived loudness' mode) in recent versions of Audacity before exporting the track as an MP3. If you use RMS normalization, set it to -21dB. Another way would be to use the Amplify effect set to 2dB.
  • 00:03 Intro needs "Chapters 1-7" in the section title.
  • 31:17 Outro needs "Chapters 1-7" in the section title.

Another great project! Could I take the "On the Flesh of Christ" section?
