Biblical visualisations of cross-references are found here. The above rainbow shows the distance between two places among 63,779 cross-references using colour. The following one uses 340, 000 references.
Seeing not onely how each verse doth shine,
But all the constellations of the storie.
This verse marks that, and both do make a motion
Unto a third, that ten leaves off doth lie:
Thy words do finde me out, & parallels bring,
These are George Herbert's words from the poem on Holy Scripture. Would it not be beautiful if we could trace cross-references with our own life and experience? The "lights" and "perfections" of the Urim and Thummim found in Scripture as a lamp to our feet. What would that look like as a patchwork of colour and embroidery of light? This places the emphasis upon the word "I" at the start of Herbert's poem.
OH that I knew how all thy lights combine,
And the configurations of their glorie!
