This page groups scripture portions by where the word scripture itself comes from. Wikipedia notes that the term scripture "meant 'writings [manuscripts] in general' prior to the medieval era, and was then 'reserved to denote the texts of the Old and New Testaments of the Bible'." Browsing by originates-in-language lets a visitor see the linguistic root behind the very idea of scripture.
