Data Format

Each verse includes morphological annotations:

{
  "id": "byztxt-TR:John.1.1",
  "text": "εν αρχη ην ο λογος και ο λογος ην προς τον θεον και θεος ην ο λογος",
  "words": [
    {
      "position": 1,
      "text": "εν",
      "morph": "PREP"
    }
  ],
  "gematria": {
    "standard": 3627
  }
}

Colophons

This edition preserves scribal notes (colophons) found at the end of some epistles. Colophon words are marked in metadata:

{
  "text": "... αμην προς τιμοθεον ...",
  "words": [
    { "position": 13, "text": "αμην", "metadata": {} },
    { "position": 14, "text": "προς", "metadata": { "colophon": true } }
  ],
  "metadata": {
    "has_colophon": true,
    "colophon_word_range": [14, 33]
  }
}

Verse-level gematria excludes colophon words (original text only).

import { getVerse } from '@metaxia/scriptures';

const verse = await getVerse('2Timothy', 4, 22, { edition: 'byztxt-TR' });

// Get original words only
const originalWords = verse.words.filter(w => !w.metadata?.colophon);

// Get colophon words
const colophonWords = verse.words.filter(w => w.metadata?.colophon);
