Word studies

Follow a word through the whole Bible

Every word has its own study: its dictionary form, Strong’s and the full lexicon entries, every form it takes and every place it occurs, its root family, and a network of the words it keeps company with.

Every canon

Which books, and who holds them

Communities received different collections of books over the centuries. The app carries the books they share and those only some receive, tags each one by the traditions that hold it, and compares 99 books across five traditions.
