          "An AI Bible Passage Study Prompt is one of the most useful prompt types because many Christians study Scripture in smaller passage units. A passage may be a paragraph, narrative scene, psalm section, prophetic oracle, or doctrinal argument. The danger is treating that passage as if it stands alone.",
          "A safer prompt requires the AI to explain what comes before and after, why the passage begins and ends where it does, and how the unit contributes to the larger book."
        ]

        "id": "section-2",
        "heading": "What the prompt should require",
        "content": [
          "The prompt should require immediate context, literary structure, genre, key observations, repeated words, main idea, interpretive questions, theological significance, and application. It should also require the AI to state what the passage does not prove.",
          "This kind of structure keeps the answer from becoming a generic religious reflection."

        "content": [
          "To prevent isolated conclusions, the prompt should ask how each claim is supported by the passage itself. It should distinguish direct statements, strong inferences, background observations, and speculative ideas that should be rejected.",
          "This matters because AI can easily overconnect themes or import doctrine without showing how the passage supports the claim."
