    Bible Explorer Available for Free

    Posted on Saturday, December 30, 2006 at 1:36 PM by Jason Barker

    John Fidel announced on the Bible Software Review Weblog that Bible Explorer - a Bible study application that previously retailed for around $20 dollars - is now available as a free download.

    The free version of Bible Explorer contains Bible resources that are in the public domain: the King James Version, Smith's Bible Dictionary, etc. Some of these are not particularly useful to Orthodox Christians (such as Charles Spurgeon's Morning and Evening devotional and Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary), and the study resources are often, of course, a bit out-of-date, but Bible Explorer is nonetheless an adequate application for users who want a free Bible study application and do not need to engage in study of the original languages.

    Members of Teen SOYO and the Antiochian Orthodox Archdiocese of North America should be aware that the New King James Version - the translation used in my Bible studies and the Orthodox Study Bible - is only available for Bible Explorer as a $30 dollar download.

    If you are interested in using the Opera browser to directly access free online Bible study resources (including searching the NKJV), you might want to read my post on the old blog.
