biblical verse
Numbered holy passage
A biblical verse is a numbered division of text within a chapter of the Bible, typically one or two sentences long.
The verse-and-chapter system allows precise citation: John 3:16, Psalm 23:4.
People memorize favorite verses, quote them in speeches, or display them on signs.
A single verse can become culturally iconic even outside religious contexts.
