ECanon Help Page

The ECanon is an XML database of canonical texts, currently containing various versions of the Bible. Additional versions and manuscripts of the biblical text will be added over time, as will sacred texts from other religious traditions. Other important traditional texts will also eventually be present in the ECanon.

The ECanon is part of TC: A Journal of Biblical Textual Criticism, and it is designed to be a free online tool for scholars, students, clergy, and other interested people. The texts are copyrighted by TC: A Journal of Biblical Textual Criticism, but they may be downloaded and used freely for non-commercial purposes.

The ECanon can be searched interactively for words or specific passages. Links to specific passages or searches can also be embedded in Web pages.
