Information from the Bible as structured data

These datasets are also available via the data.world website at https://data.world/bradys

SUMMARY

Read by students, scholars, critics, and the curious for millennia, the Holy Bible is the most translated, most widely published, and most examined text in history. Unfortunately, the information in Scripture largely has remained unstructured and not easily parsed, examined, processed, or enriched with modern technology.

Want to create a graph database and identify how many descendants of Aaron are named in the Bible or how many generations are named between Adam and King David? Want to run a query to discover how many years it was between the Flood and the creation of Solomon's temple? Need a list of all the Biblical events that occurred at a specific geographic location? Structured data makes all of these (and more!) possible.
