A curated reference set of scholarly-consensus composition history for the biblical corpus: the traditions behind the Old Testament, Deuterocanon, New Testament, and Old Testament Pseudepigrapha, and the source-critical relationships among them (e.g. Documentary Hypothesis strands, Markan priority, canonical collection, translation into the Septuagint). The dataset is a direct transcription of established scholarship — no machine learning or classifier is involved — recording tradition nodes with approximate calendar date ranges and a lineage graph of how earlier sources, editorial layers, and collections relate to later works.

This repository is part of the NuBerea curated corpus estate of biblical and patristic source texts. The public card carries this concept summary; the full specification (schemas, table contracts, per-config detail, methodology) is available in the gated SPEC.md.
