TheBible.org Parallel Bible+

USE THIS APP WHEN ONLINE (use other apps when offline)

PARALLEL BIBLE WITH STUDY TOOLS. As a reader reads down the column in one version, we make it easy for him look left and right to see how other versions express a verse (in context too!), and then continue reading in the version he is reading (or in another version he finds helpful in reading that passage that day). The idea is to introduce as little eye movement as possible, and as little "context switching" (such as jumping out to a separate list and then back to the text) as possible, so that the reader can get into the Scriptures and immerse in them for a while, gentle euphoria.

PASTORS: Show your followers all of your notes. Then each can choose to read your notes in his own Parallel Bible. As you add and change notes, everyone's Parallel Bible is automatically updated. May this help you deliver the gospel message even more effectively.

NOTE-TAKING AND VERSE HIGHLIGHTING: Sign in to make notes and highlight verses. Engage more now; recall more later.

WORD STUDY, VERSE STUDY: This app makes it easy to study words and the passages they occur in, to go deeper and get even more out of what you read in the Bible. Tap “Word study” to see: verse list and definitions (concordance and lexicons). Tap “Verse study” to see: color-coded parts-of-speech, word forms, phonetics, syllables, and translation tips.

It also helps you find familiar Bible verses, even when you only remember a few words. Enter "God so loved" in the search box and see where that phrase occurs in every Bible version you have open.
