Revision: 13 Named Scripture and ListsIn the spirit of enhancing communications between Christians who speak of scripture by chapter and verse and those who speak of names and liturgical use, this list provides names with Verbum and Wikipedia links. Akedah (Binding of Isaac)This passage is read in synagogue on the second day of Rosh Hashanah. Some Kabbalists recite this passage daily after Birkot hashachar.
Book of Glory (Book of Exultation)The Book of Glory refers to the second major section in the Gospel according to John. It includes the Last Supper, the Farewell Discourses, the Passion, and the Resurrection. Some include the epilogue in the Book of Glory.
Book of SignsThe Book of Signs refers to the first of two major sections in the Gospel according to John. The section narrated seven miracles (signs).
The seven signs are usually identified as:
Bread of life discourseThis discourse is used during later summer in the year of Mark in the Revised Common Lectionary to fill in for the shortness of the Gospel of Mark. It has always been read as a eucharistic text.
Covenant of the pieces (Covenant between the parts)This is the first of a series of covenants made between God and the Patriarchs.
Great I am’s (with predicates)Seven sayings in emphatic form used in the Gospel of John by Jesus to refer to himself by role in salvation.
Great I am’s (without predicates)Seven sayings of Jesus expressing His divine identity, the basis of his role in salvation.
Hymn to the Word (Prologue to John, Last Gospel)This hymn is known as the Last Gospel as it is used at the end of the Tridentine Mass.
Jesus and the Woman Taken in Adultery (Pericope Adulterae)The concensus is that this passage is a third century interpolation which became widespread in the fourth century. It remains in most contemporary translations but with a footnote.
Johannine Comma (Comma Johanneum)This triune interpolated phrase is first included Latin manuscripts of the fifth-seventh century although it is quoted by early church fathers earlier.
OctateuchThis is the first eight books of scripture in the Septuagint sequence. The Beta Israel of Ethiopia call the Octateuch “Orit”.
Prayer of ManassehThis penitential prayer is sometimes treated as the final chapter of 2 Chronicles. It is usually treated as a deuterocanonical book.

Torah (Pentateuch, Five books of Moses, Written Torah)The Torah is read in the synagogue in an annual or a three year cycle. The basis of this lectionary dates back at least to the time of Nehemiah. This is the entirety of the Samaritan scripture.
Wife-sister type-scenesThree narrative in Genesis where the foreign overlord mistakes the patriarch’s wife as his sister and attempts to marry here. The overlord learns of his error.
