About
Cross-references are the notes that lead a reader from one Bible passage to another that echoes, quotes or fulfills it. On paper you can only follow them one at a time, so the bigger picture stays hidden: how the prophets echo the Law, or how the New Testament quotes the Psalms and Isaiah.
This project draws all of them at once. Every verse sits on one line from Genesis to Revelation, and every cross-reference is an arc colored by the genres it connects. You can zoom from the whole Bible down to a single verse, search for a reference such as John 3:16, and read any passage with all of its connections one click away.
It works on phones too. It's free and open source, and it's built only on openly licensed data.
