Strong's and Word Study

Open the feature-rich Strong's layer, glosses, definitions, occurrence data, and connected study details from the same Bible surface so a verse can turn into a real word-study session.

Morphology and Lexicon Detail

Hover and click through morphology, lexicon support, and LXX token detail to move from translation to grammar and lexical meaning.

Search, compare, and connect

The Bible surface also includes discovery tools that help users move from a verse to related themes and historical witnesses.

Search and Ask in the Bible Player

Open the Bible player to use the built-in search and Ask tools that help you move from a question into relevant passages and study pathways.

Cross-References

Jump from a verse into related passages when you want to compare Scripture with Scripture.
