CC BY-SA 4.0. Changed for Deep Dive Bible: text boxes and charts set into their articles; maps shown with the
other maps instead of in the articles; section outlines, and pictures (not released with the text), left out.

Made for Deep Dive Bible by AI agents (Claude, by Anthropic) at Larry Sanger’s direction: the verse links.

What is here:
- verse_links.json and verse_links.csv: the verses each article speaks of (slug: the article’s address on
the site and its ZWI file’s name) (43,905 rows). Columns: slug, title, book, chapter, verse, verse_end.
- zwi/: 6010 articles, one ZWI file each (the Encyclosphere’s open format for encyclopedia articles:
https://wiki.encyclosphere.org/ZWI_file_format). Each is a zip holding the article as HTML and text, and its
metadata.

Books are named by their USFM codes (GEN, EXO, … REV; the Apocrypha’s as TOB, JDT, 1MA, and so on). Verse
numbers are the KJV’s; verse 0 is the whole chapter, and a blank verse_end is the one verse.
