NuBerea/segments

Analytical unit definitions for biblical, Second Temple, rabbinic, and early Christian corpora: pericope boundaries for the Hebrew Bible and Greek New Testament, segment boundaries for the Dead Sea Scrolls, Talmudic literature (Mishnah, Tosefta, Bavli, Yerushalmi), early Christian writings, Nag Hammadi codices, Old Testament pseudepigrapha, and Migne's Patrologia Latina, together with a cross-corpus event topology (canonical biblical events, their aliases, relations, and mappings onto pericope spans).

Pericopes — the traditional reading units of scripture — are the natural analytical grain between the verse and the book, and this dataset supplies a consistent set of such units across very different corpora so that segment-level scholarship (source criticism, synoptic comparison, reception history) can be carried out on a common footing. The full specification (per-config documentation, schemas, and methodology) is available in the gated SPEC accompanying this dataset.
