You can create parallel versions to compare translations or ancient texts.<\/p>\n The Interactive Bible<\/strong><\/a>. Extensive notes on a variety of subjects.

There is a lot of unique material here, but there are also a few odd ideas being promoted.<\/p>\n The Restoration Movement Writings<\/strong><\/a> by authors in the churches of Christ, the Christian churches, and the Disciples of Christ. No effort is made to distinguish good writing from bad writing in this collection. The site is down, but you can find the material in the Internet Archives<\/a>.<\/p>\n The Story of Jesus<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0Essentially this is a site giving a composite or harmony of the four Gospels.

Many are interactive.<\/p>\n Bible Analyzer<\/strong><\/a> The program and several add-on books are free to download. Many additional books are available at very inexpensive prices. When I looked at the available modules, the number of quality translations was seriously lacking. It has built-in text-to-speech for the books and tools for statistical analysis of word usage. The layout of the panels is not flexible, such as only one Bible translation at a time can be shown, though tabs allow a quick switch between translations. It has a few built-in quizzes and can play MIDI hymn files.<\/p>\n Bible Mapper<\/b><\/a> is a fully interactive, highly accurate Bible mapping system that helps you quickly and easily create customized maps of the Holy Lands or study a particular period and aspect of Bible history. This free program allows you to create your own maps of Bible places, and the license allows you to use the maps you create freely as well.<\/p>\n eBible<\/a><\/strong> This is a web-based application. This means you can access it from any computer or smartphone. Since all your notes are stored on their system, whatever you do is available, even if you switch systems. If you pay a small monthly fee, you avoid the advertisements and can enter more notes each month. One interesting feature is the ability to highlight your text, just as you do your own Bibles. The biggest downside to the system is that you must have an Internet connection. This is not a stand-alone application. By the way, the dictionaries, commentaries, and lexicons are found by clicking “Explain.” This application does not have many books, which is surprising since it is a web-based tool.<\/p>\n e-Sword<\/strong><\/a> This is another free program. The manufacturer operates on donations. I especially like this one because it has a version available for smartphones. It is not very fast. Searches are very slow. A few resources have price tags, but most do not. They are mostly royalty fees and inexpensive. It can read STEP-formatted books.<\/p>\n PowerBible<\/a><\/strong> This has remained my favorite program over the years. The price has always been low (currently $12), and the amount that you get for that price is jaw-dropping. The interconnections between books are excellent. I especially like the hover feature that lets you put your mouse over a reference tag and read the reference without switching to that point. The NASB, NRSV, and NIV are on the disk but are locked until the publishers’ royalty fee is paid (still low, $37 for all three currently). The two main faults with the program are that it is not extensible (you can’t add your own books) and the ESV is unavailable.<\/p>\n Acts Of The Apostles<\/b><\/a>\u00a0by J. W.
