Editorial policy

How we source, write and correct what you read on this site.

Our aim

Bible Interconnect exists to help people read the Bible with more understanding. We want every page to be accurate, useful and honest about what it does and does not know.

Where the content comes from

• Cross reference data. From OpenBible.info (CC BY 4.0). We do not edit the data. We display it and count it.
• Bible text. The King James Version, which is in the public domain. We do not change the wording.
• Data analysis pages. The counts, rankings and lists on our Explore pages are calculated by us directly from the data. The written notes beside them describe what the numbers show.
• Book guides and learning pages. Written for this site. They give a short, plain summary of each book and point to the text. They are introductions and are not a replacement for a full commentary.

How we write about the Bible

• We keep to widely held, mainstream Christian understanding, and we say so when views differ, for example on who wrote a book and when.
• We use words like 'traditionally' and 'many scholars' where the question is open.
• On debated matters such as prophecy, we show what the text says and how it is linked, and we do not claim certainty that the text does not give.
• We do not promote any church, denomination, product or political cause.

Use of AI tools

We use AI tools to help draft and check some of the writing and to help write the computer code behind the site. The site owner is responsible for everything published here. If you find an error, please tell us.

Corrections and updates

When an error is reported or found, we check it against the Bible text and our sources, and correct the page. The site is maintained and extended over time; new guides and analysis are added as they are ready.

Advertising

Bible Interconnect may show advertising in the future to help cover its costs. Ads will not change what we write. We will keep ads clearly separate from the content, and we do not currently run sponsored articles.
