Truly Excellent

You won’t be disappointed with this app.

Absolutely wonderful app !!

I have been using this app for several years and absolutely love it.
I love the Lexon definitions and especially being able to see all of the word’s occurrences and usages in the Bible.
Plus the option of looking at other translations and how the words are translated there.

Absolutely love the option to add notes, which I use to add additional cross-references to specific words in the text.

Another five star feature with this app is that when you copy and paste a passage, the app doesn’t clutter up the text with verse numbers in brackets like other apps do.
Highlighting is a fun option as well.

Thank you Lockman Foundation for your love for the Word and your pursuit of biblical clarity!!

Beautiful but no multi language

I love the app but I want to be in Spanish :(

Outstanding, Simple, Intuitive, Fun

The only Bible app I use. No spam, no pop ups, no commentary.

My go to Bible Study tool

I used to use a strong concordance. I switched to the blue letter Bible. But now the Literal Word Bible app has become my go to Bible Study tool. It’s so easy to use. They even added my favorite translation, the NKJV. I recommend it to every serious Bible student.
