On-Line Bibles

A variety of Bibles are available on-line on the Internet. Most of these also provide search engines, allowing you to look up a passage or search for specific words or phrases. Here is a sampling. If you know of others or if you find any of these links no longer works, please contact the Webmaster.

Note:  The World Wide Study Bible and the NET Bible especially take advantage of the power of the Internet and may be of great use to the serious Bible student.

American Bible Society Bible Search - Search 11 different English translations. This is part of ABS's Bible Resource Center, which includes other aids to on-line Bible study, as well as several Bible study discussion groups.

Bible Gateway - This service of Gospel Communications Network (Gospelcom.net) is used by many other web sites. It allows access to seven English translations (including NIV, NASB, and RSV) as well as translations into about a dozen other languages. A Bible Gateway search form is available on our own God's Word page.

Blue Letter Bible - This King James Version includes hyperlinks to the Treasury of Scripture Knowledge, Strong's Concordance, and a variety of other commentaries and Bible study tools.

Crosswalk Bible Study Tools - This service of Crosswalk.Com includes more than 20 English translations, with many of the popular modern versions (NASB, NKJV, NLT, NRSV, and TEV).  Also a variety of other searchable study tools:  commentaries, concordances, lexicons, and dictionaries. For an audio version of the King James Version (requiring RealAudio), go to Crosswalk's Audio Bible.

The HTML Bible - Software developer John Hurt has developed several computer versions of the King James Version and other resources, including the HTML Bible (each chapter is a separate web page), The Speed Bible (which uses the MS HTML Help format), and the Speaking Bible (which also uses MS HTML Help format and Microsoft Agent speech synthesis technology to read the Bible out loud to you). These are available on-line, or may be downloaded in entirety for a small charge. There are also several public domain Bibles and resources available for on-line viewing or free download.

The NET Bible - The on-line edition of The New English Translation, a completely new translation developed especially for the Internet by the Biblical Studies Foundation. Includes an abundance of translation, textual, and study notes. This is an ongoing project. Users and scholars alike may submit comments and suggestions to the translation committee, and the translation is frequently upgraded.

Online Search Engine for Canonical Texts (ECanon) - an XML database of canonical texts, currently containing the KJV, RSV, NRSV, English versions and the Westcott and Hort Greek New Testament (unaccented) (WH). The ECanon is part of TC: A Journal of Biblical Textual Criticism, and it is designed to be a free online tool for scholars, students, clergy, and other interested people.

World Wide Study Bible - This resource from Calvin College is very different from most of the on-line Bibles. It is not searchable. However, it does contain a large number of links to resources on each book and many passages of the Bible, including translations, commentaries, sermons, meditations, studies, and even hymns and musical selections.
