Hi Lori, If I were doing the book I would delete the brackets because those words do not have brackets in them in the Bible. Since it is quoting the Bible, that would seem appropriate. Just my opinion though.

All of the quotations begin and end with a quotation mark. In a few of these quotations, the first letter is surrounded with brackets; the letter is the first letter of a word, i.e. "[C]ast your cares upon Him." I don't really understand why the letter is bracketed; for braille reading sake should I remove the brackets? Or since they are truly part of the book, should I leave them in place? Thanks.
