This App is like an old friend.

I’ve used it for more years than I can remember. It has everything you could ask for in a Bible app. Great for a quick reference or deep study. The app works smoothly and seamlessly. It’s so easy to look up a verse or compare translations which I do quite often. It truly feels like an “old friend”.

Serious error

On the daily devotional - evening portion the story of Saul’s disobedience in 1 Samuel chapter 15. However, the devotion states PAUL instead of Saul. This is a very serious error especially in light of groups that endeavor to discredit Paul. For those who do not already know their bible this could lead to confusion with possible eternal consequences.

Amazing tool

I have been using E-Sword for over 20 years now. The most comprehensive tool I have ever found. It is my go-to for all things Bible. Rick Myers is brilliant, and a lover of our minds and souls. It is vast so stick with it until you master this precious resource. It has new features even now.
