Doctrine Graph
The graph has no fixed centre. It opens on Abraham — the one figure every tradition in the record shares — and you can start from any node. Every edge carries its evidence, its classification and how each tradition stands on it.
Nodes, with the traditions whose texts speak of them and their number of connections.
