The code could run from Excel or Word but xRefs won't be the right tool to use if the complete table is not ALSO sitting in the same document. It makes sense to not include the full text of the Torah at the back of the document but the incrementing id numbers mean nothing without it.

Take a step back and think about what you REALLY want. If the book is standalone and doesn't require the entire Torah as a table at the end of the document then you need to work out what you DO want. The incrementing paragraph numbers mean nothing without the book/para/sentence id in a massive table.

I would either show a tag as(book/para/sentence) in the document itself and the reader can pick up their Torah to find it. This does interrupt the flow of reading the book but it is simple and standalone.

OR show a simple footnote/endnote tag as(1) in the book paragraph and in the footnote/endnotes area you would show them that that id number is a reference to the location in the Torah that they will understand eg.
1 = book/para/sentence

There is no need to include the sentence itself since that precedes the tag in the document anyway and would be repetitive.
