Don Knuth’s 3:16 Project

I men­tioned this on my per­son­al web­site, but I thought it would also be of inter­est to the stu­dents at Stan­ford XA. Don­ald Knuth, a retired com­put­er sci­ence pro­fes­sor at Stan­ford, under­took a project many years ago to ana­lyze every chap­ter 3 verse 16 in the Bible. It’s sup­posed to be quite fas­ci­nat­ing, although I’ve not read it yet.

In any event, I just ran across the coolest thing on his web­site: John 3:16 in beau­ti­ful PDF cal­lig­ra­phy. The trans­la­tion is pret­ty neat as well.
