EXPERIENCE IT: As you read down the column in one version, when you encounter a verse you'd like to better understand, just move your eyes left-and-right to see how other versions express that verse in its context, and then continue reading the chapter. The idea is to introduce as little eye movement as possible, so you can get into the Scriptures and stay there for a while.
WORD STUDY: Tap any word to lookup the corresponding Hebrew or Greek word and its occurrences. Or tap to lookup Greek details in a verse (phonetics, parsings, parts of speech, translation tips).
SHARE: Show your followers all of your notes. Then each can choose to read your notes in his own Parallel Bible. As you add and change notes, everyone's Parallel Bible is automatically updated. May this help you deliver the gospel message even more effectively.
HIGHLIGHT VERSES, MAKE NOTES: Sign in to make notes and highlight verses. Engage more now; recall more later.
WORD STUDY, BIBLICAL LANGUAGES: This app makes it easy to study words and the passages they occur in, to go deeper and get even more out of what you read in the Bible. Tap any verse, then tap “word study” to see: verse lists, lexical entries, and word families . Tap any verse, then tap “biblical languages” to see verse-at-a-time helps: color-coded parts-of-speech, word forms, phonetics, syllables, and translation tips.
It also helps you find familiar Bible verses, even when you only remember a few words. Enter "God so loved" in the search box and see where that phrase occurs in every Bible version you have open.
SOCIAL: This app supports you in sharing the gospel with your friends right at the moment you are reading a Bible verse and thinking of someone in your life.
PROTESTANT, ROMAN CATHOLIC, BOTH: This app automatically aligns verses—by verse content!—and displays corresponding verse numbers when different.
COMMENTARY FREE: The act of reading versions in parallel helps readers to understand more deeply. Even without commentary. We feel this is so important that we do not include commentary in our app.

Perfect App

I am new to this app, but have found so many reasons to label it “perfect”. My favorite feature is in the landscape parallel position, you can change out the translations that suit you best giving you the perfect layout for studying, projects or simply comparing a verse you may be unclear about. Color coded options to highlight passages helps to keep organized. I was looking for inspiration one day and this was the first app to pop up in the App Store and I found the perfect verse for my situation immediately. You can’t go wrong by downloading this FREE app. Excellent!!!
By FAR the BEST!!

Absolutely the best, there are no other apps that offer as many side by side comparisons on a tablet, and you will be hard pressed to find one on a desktop without investing heavily on the software platform. Get it today!

Very Helpful Reference

Using this app has allowed me to cross reference scripture passages very easily. I really like being able to see several versions of the Bible on one page. It helps me to go deeper into the verse. I’m new to the app and I am still navigating through it. I’m not yet sure of all the features that may be available, but I’m enjoying discovery.
Does ONE thing well!!

This is my go to app when studying Bible passages in depth. I love the translations. I especially love the Greek and Hebrew word study. It provides insight into how the words were used/meant in another era.
Great way to study the Bible
