Biblical resources
Apr 12th, 2008 by Cheryl
I was asked to provide a post that lists what people use for biblical helps all in one place. I will start and anyone is welcome to add to the list.
I love e-sword http://www.e-sword.net/downloads.html It is a mostly free program that you can download onto your computer and it has tons of resources and bibles and helps.
I also love scripture4all http://scripture4all.org/ You can download the program or check the scriptures right on-line. It is great for checking the Greek or Hebrew parsing.
Blue letter bible http://blueletterbible.org/ is also helpful although I rarely use it any longer since I have the helps already on my computer.
If anyone has already put their links in the comments area on other posts, please consider putting them in the comment section here so we can keep all of the resource links in one place. Thanks!
Thanks, thanks, thanks!!!!!!
How have you found the scripture4all site to be the most helpful? What sort of things has it helped with? Maybe I need to learn just what parsing is LOL.
Keer,
The parsing is all the fine points of grammar. For example look at http://scripture4all.org/OnlineInterlinear/OTpdf/gen1.pdf In Genesis 1:29 you can see God saying “I have given you every herb bearing seed…” If you look at the you in green which is the literal translation, you will see a little (p). This means the you is plural so God was talking to both Adam and Eve here telling them both what they could eat. In this New testament passage http://scripture4all.org/OnlineInterlinear/NTpdf/1ti2.pdf you can check out 1 Timothy 2:15 to see that the word childbearing is a noun. It is also singular not plural so child not children.
This “little” things have been very helpful for me in rightly dividing the word of truth.
I hope that helps!
Any suggestions for Mac users?
LW,
Thanks for bringing the Mac up. I never thought of the Mac since I don’t use one. If anyone knows of Mac biblical resources, please post them here.
