Trends and comparisons
How often books, book groups, chapters or verses are used over time, and how denominations, persons, translations, sources, topics, years or audience sizes compare: up to six lines side by side, in the approved public records of the official profile.
The sources of this database cover very different years. A rise or fall in the number of uses mostly shows which sources cover a period, not how popular a passage was. Read the share: the uses of this passage per thousand of all uses recorded for the same period.
Time frame 2000-01-01 to open: only records whose whole date lies inside it count.

Insufficient data: fewer than 30 records. The shares are shown but are not reliable.

Share: the group's uses per thousand of all uses recorded for the same period. The sources cover very different years, so the number of uses mostly shows coverage; the share reads against it.
A record counts in a period only when its date is at least as precise as the period (a record dated only to a year never appears under a month) and lies within it; the others count in the group’s total, never spread over periods.

Sources and the years they cover
Each source covers only some years. The bar shows the years its records in the time frame cover (over all passages, as the records show them, not a declared survey period); the numbers are its records in each line.

Official profile official@2, epoch 95, sequence prot66.nrf. Passages and book groups: a record counts once when one of its passages resolves to a verse of the passage or of a book of the group (any element role). Dashed line: fewer records than the minimum for a reliable comparison.
