Visualize the Bible

The small graph at the bottom of this picture represents the books, chapters, and verses of the Bible. The alternating grey and white represent the books, the lines are the chapters and the length of the line depends on how many verses in the chapter. The colored arcs represent the references in the Bible to other parts of the Bible. The colors are to distinguish the different distances between references.

Can you guess what the long line right in the middle at the bottom is? That's right Psalm 119. And what is Psalm 119 all about? That's right the Word of God! The whole Bible hinges on the longest chapter which is about the Bible itself. Cool!
