    Stable tool list

    Fewer than two successful probes in 30 days, so tool-list stability is not measured.

Access

  • Pass
    Open access

    tools/list succeeded with no credential, and the record declares none.

  • Not measured
    Standard auth

    Auth is not required, so the OAuth metadata check does not apply.

Capabilities

Tools 6

get_passage

Read a Bible passage in one or more editions side by side (Hebrew WLC, Greek Septuagint, SBL Greek NT, English WEB/King James/ASV/Douay-Rheims/Brenton, Russian Synodal, Luther 1912, Louis Segond). Reference numbering is WEB, or WEB Classic for additional books it holds, otherwise Brenton. source_numbering identifies native verses. Unestablished correspondences are flagged aligned:false with no counterpart text.

Discovered
list_editions

List the Bible editions available, with ids, languages and book coverage.

Discovered
read_work

Read a work from the shelf. Without a section: its table of contents (with paragraph counts). With a section: that section's text, original and translation row by row, up to ~24k characters; if truncated, call again with paragraph = next_paragraph to read on. With find: every row in the work (or in one section) containing all search words in any order, accent- and breathing-insensitive (e.g. find "αλοω κατα ποντον" or "worse than a brother"), with section and paragraph to read it.

Discovered
room

The Enoch and Melchizedek rooms: every passage on the shelf that names Enoch or Melchizedek, with links.

Discovered
search_shelf

Search the library by title, author, translator, blurb or group, also returning up to 20 matching section titles: Homer, Plato, Thucydides, Plutarch, Virgil, Livy and the rest of the Greek and Latin classics in the original beside English; the Pali Canon; Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, Pushkin in Russian; Camus, Kafka, Goethe; Philo, Josephus, the Mishnah in Hebrew and English, 1-3 Enoch, Jubilees, the Church Fathers, Aquinas, Calvin, Kierkegaard, Nietzsche... To find a passage inside a work, use read_work with find.

Discovered
who_read_verse

Find who on the shelf (Church Fathers, rabbis, mystics, reformers, commentators, philosophers) quotes a given Bible verse, with the quotation and a link. So far only 42 well-known verses are indexed (Genesis 1:1, Psalm 23:1, Isaiah 53:5, John 1:1, John 3:16, Romans 1:17 ...); "indexed": false means the verse is not on that list, not that nobody quotes it.
