Bible Study Software
Recommended Software (listing
only the programs I have used)
- Wordsearch 9:
this software program has many great features and is the best
commercial product for the average theologue! A Wordsearch 5 program CD
came with earlier editions of the ESV -- that is how I was introduced
to this product. The best choice for Bible study!!
- Bible Explorer 4: A
scaled down version of Wordsearch program. A free version for download
at www.bible-explorer.com. The free version comes with several free
books and when you register you can unlock several more freebies! This
program is worth a try. The downside, like Wordsearch, is the cost of
adding additional books.
- Free Bible
Software:
The Ephesians 4 Group gives away a free
copy of Quickverse, a
popular
and powerful program. It comes with several
books (including Bible Versions and reference
books). Add-on books are expensive.
- E-Sword: A free
software program with a basic set of Bible Study Tools (including a
STEP Reader) and many
free add-ins to download. A few excellent add-ins can be purchased at a
reasonable price. You can download the program and add-ons
from: www.e-sword.net.
Before
beginning you can learn the program features from the tutorial at: www.e-sword.net/training.html
I used E-Sword for several years and still keep it loaded on my
computer. I have recently switched to Wordsearch because it has many
features that I like. One of the best features is the 'talking'
Greek/Hebrew Lexicon. A click of the mouse and the program gives the
correct pronunciation of the Greek or Hebrew word selected!
