About This Page

This data draws primarily from public-domain sources, especially the Treasury of Scripture Knowledge , which provides most of the data. It also includes data (to seed the initial votes) from my Topical Bible and Twitter Bible Search. I created this experiment because it was hard to find Bible cross-reference data on the web. Download all the cross-reference data (2 MB .zip).
