Parallel Bibles and the Greek
KJV and BSB side by side, with the Greek word behind “loved” open: its parsing, its gloss and every place it’s used.
Read the Bible with your church’s sermons beside it.
Sermon Platform Bible is a free desktop Bible study app for Mac, Windows and Linux. Works offline.
What’s in it
- Bibles in parallel
- KJV with Strong’s, BSB, WEB, ASV, YLT and more. Read two or three side by side, verse for verse.
- Greek and Hebrew
- Textus Receptus, SBL, Byzantine and the Leningrad Codex. Click any word for its parsing, gloss and dictionary entry.
- Word study
- Every use of a word grouped by book, its range of meanings, and how the KJV renders it each time.
- Commentaries
- Matthew Henry, Barnes, Clarke, Calvin, Wesley, JFB, Keil & Delitzsch, Treasury of David. Compare them on a passage in one table.
- Cross-references and dictionaries
- OpenBible cross-references, Treasury of Scripture Knowledge, Nave’s, Easton’s, Smith’s and ISBE.
- Search by meaning
- Finds verses, your notes and the commentaries by what they mean, not only the words. Runs on your computer.
- Notes
- Markdown in a folder you choose. “Rom 8:28” becomes a link; the note appears beside the verses it cites. Works with Obsidian.
- Studies
- A folder per sermon or series that keeps its notes, passages, tabs and AI threads together. Pick it up where you left it.
- Highlights and bookmarks
- Highlight a verse, bookmark where you are, and find both from the Library.
- Your own AI
- Claude, Codex or Grok, signed in as you. It reads what you’re reading, and every verse it quotes is checked against the text.
- Sermons
- Follow a church on Sermon Platform. Its sermons appear on every verse they touch, online or downloaded for offline.
- Offline, and free
- Everything above works without an account or an internet connection.
