Gospel parallels

The Gospel synopsis (a harmony mapping the parallel passages of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John) is Byzantique's own compilation, released under the same CC BY-SA 4.0  license as the commentary. Its arrangement and section titles follow the public domain harmonies of A. T. Robertson (1922) and J. A. Broadus (1893), and the parallels themselves are textual facts.

Scripture texts

The biblical texts and other cited works are not covered by the above; each carries its own license. See Texts and Translations for details (Septuagint: public domain / CC0; New Testament: CC BY 4.0).

Fonts

Greek and Hebrew are set in self-hosted open-source typefaces: Noto Serif (polytonic Greek) and Ezra SIL  (pointed and cantillated Hebrew, after the Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia). Both are licensed under the SIL Open Font License 1.1; their license files travel with the font subsets in the repository.

Lectionary data

The daily lectionary readings are derived from orthocal-python, used under the MIT License. Byzantique precomputes the readings from its data; there is no runtime dependency on any external service.

Site code

Byzantique is open source. The code that runs the site — the Astro application, build scripts, and styles — is released under the MIT License, separate from the commentary above. The full source lives on GitHub: github.com/biblenerd/byzantique.

The repository bundles several licenses — code (MIT), commentary (CC BY-SA 4.0), the vendored scripture texts, fonts (OFL), and lectionary data (MIT), each under its own terms. The breakdown is in its LICENSING  file.
