Bible
Import, browse, search, and deliver Scripture — with AI-powered tools and rich reference parsing.
What Bosca Bible Provides
Bosca includes a complete Bible content platform built for organizations that work with Scripture. Import industry-standard Digital Bible Library (DBL) files, browse books and chapters with rich formatting, parse human-readable references like "John 3:16" into structured data, and give AI agents the ability to look up and reason about Bible passages.
Key Capabilities
| Capability | Description |
|---|---|
| DBL Import | Upload Digital Bible Library ZIP files and automatically parse USX content, metadata, languages, and styling into the platform |
| Multi-Translation | Store and serve multiple Bible translations side by side, each with its own language metadata and rendering styles |
| Rich Content | Chapters are stored as structured component trees preserving formatting — verse markers, poetry indentation, red-letter text, footnotes, and cross-references |
| Reference Parsing | Convert human-readable citations ("Genesis 1:1-5", "Psalm 23", "Rom 8:28-30") to structured USFM references and back |
| AI Integration | Bible tools for AI agents — discover translations, list books, retrieve verses, and search references from within agent conversations |
| Editor Integration | Embed Bible references directly in rich text documents using the TipTap editor integration |
How It Fits Together
Bible content lives within the broader Content system. Each Bible translation is a metadata item in a collection, with its books and chapters stored as structured data. This means Bibles benefit from the same workflow states, permissions, and publishing controls as all other content in the platform.
The AI system includes dedicated Bible tools that let agents look up passages, list books, and search references — enabling Scripture-aware AI assistants that can answer questions with actual verse text.
