Bible Sense Lexicon: Dataset Documentation
Overview
The Bible Sense Lexicon enhances Bible search and provides a means for exploring meaning in the Bible by grouping words and other lexical items by meaning into thesaurus-like entries. These thesaurus-style entries are then arranged into various kinds of relationships with the most important relationship being hierarchical. These entries are also used to annotate the biblical text.
