Project Roadmap

Building open infrastructure takes time. We're moving from a prototype focused on the King James Version to a dynamic, multi-lingual database that can power Bible study tools worldwide.

Phase 1: The Prototype Nov 2025 Complete
  • Import Treasury of Scripture Knowledge
    Basic cleanup and import of 300,000+ references for the King James Version.
  • Build Prototype Study Tool
    Deployed initial version to validate user needs and data structure.
  • Build Public Website
    This website you are reading now.
Phase 2: Architecture & Tools Dec 2025 - Jan 2026 In Progress
Current Status: Foundational Sprint We are currently in an intensive development window (Incubation). The focus is on establishing the core data architecture and server infrastructure.
  • Architecture Migration
    Rebuilding database structure to decouple references from the English KJV, allowing for generic Bible translation support.
  • Basic Mapping Tool
    Building a simplified split-screen interface to allow anchoring references for the Phase 3 MVP.
Phase 3: Target French (Segond 21) Feb 2026 Upcoming
  • MVP: Mark, Romans, Hebrews
    Restricted scope MVP pending text permission. Focusing on high-value books to provide immediate value to the Francophone world.
  • Validation
    Validating the dataset utility with real users before committing to translation of anchor-phrases for the entire Bible.
  • Conditional Completion
    If validation is successful, proceed to map the remaining books of the Segond 21.
  • French Dataset Release
    Public release of the TSK cross-references fully mapped to the Segond 21.
Phase 4: Target English (BSB) Q3 2026 Upcoming
  • MVP: Pilot Set
    Mapping a pilot set to ensure the Berean Standard Bible is the right translation choice before full commitment.
  • Validation
    Gathering user feedback on the BSB integration.
  • Conditional Completion
    Upon validation, complete the mapping of the English text.
  • English Dataset Release
    Public release of the TSK cross-references fully mapped to the BSB.
Phase 5: Quality & Curation 2027+ Future
  • Reference Validation
    Review connections that may depend on KJV translation choices. Refine or remove references that don't hold across modern translations.
  • Categorization System
    Distinguish between quotations, parallels, thematic links, and other connection types.
  • Gap Filling
    Identify and add significant biblical connections not present in the original TSK.
  • Rolling releases
    Release as often as a significant amount of improvements were made.

How You Can Help Accelerate This

This is a volunteer-driven initiative. We will need help once the architecture is ready.

  • Developers: Help build the simplified mapper interface.
  • Contributors: Anchor references to new translations and validate connections.
  • Theologians: Help review translation-dependent references and strengthen the dataset.
