At an inservice yesterday, we were introduced to some very cool Bible software. Online Bible is a great package that includes a couple of different versions, some commentaries, and a couple of devotionals. There are expansion modules you can download to add a couple of more Bible versions and commentaries.

This is all free, so naturally most of the Bible versions are dated since they need to be in the public domain. While that means a bit of old fashioned English in your Bible translations, this is more than made up for by how searchable the whole package is. You can search for phrases, ideas, and can even find “Strong’s reference numbers” in the package.

If you’re doing research for your Bible class or trying to learn more in order to integrate your faith into your other lessons, this is a great (and free) little piece of software.
