A Graphical Analysis of the passages in the Bible

Here is a plot of the number of passages in each book of the Bible.

But since the books of the Bible vary greatly in length (from 2,527 verses in the Psalms to only 13 verses in 2 John), we might want to adjust our metric accordingly. The following graph does this by plotting the number of passages per 100 verses in each book.

Another way of looking at in the Bible is to plot the number of injustices in each book verses the number of verses in the book.

Such a graph is shown below.
