## What is Free Yisrael?

Free Yisrael is a home base for the Israelite community. It is free, has no ads, no tracking, and nothing to buy.

READ
The King James Bible, the Apocrypha, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and restored-name editions. Search any passage, tap a word for its Strong's meaning, and keep your own highlights and bookmarks. It all reads offline, and none of it needs an account.

THE APPOINTED TIMES
Feast days and sabbaths, with sundown worked out for where you are. Your location never leaves your phone — the calculation happens on the device itself. You can pick a city instead and never share your location at all.

THE LAND
An atlas of the places in Scripture, filtered by era, so you can see where things happened and how the map changed.

THE LANGUAGE
A glossary of the ancient terms in plain words, and a tool to find and save your restored name.

THE TABLE
Recipes from the community, updates from the channel, and videos from the livestream.

THE ROOM
A members' space for approved members to talk. Everything else in the app is open to everyone — no account, no email, no cost.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.6 — 2026-08-17

Read along, continuously.

Tap the speaker beside any verse and the reading carries on from there through the
rest of the chapter, highlighting each verse as it goes. Tap again to pause in the
middle of a sentence, and again to pick up where you left off. Leave the chapter and
come back, and it offers to resume at the verse you stopped on.

The reader no longer tries to speak Hebrew with an English voice: the Ancient Hebrew
text is left to read on the page, and the Dead Sea Scrolls read their English side.
