May this small service be in line with easy access to the contents and information of the Bible in Persian speaking countries.
This program makes it easier for users to access Bible information both online and offline.
Countries that do not have access to the Internet or their Internet is not fast enough, can use the offline program that does not require any Internet.
Razgah is a database of the Bible that is designed and compiled for the use of all Persian language users around the world. Razgah contains a wide range of useful sources of the Bible in order to be a safe and accessible method for Persian speakers to learn more about the contents of the Bible.
Therefore, the Secret Garden is a useful resource for all people at any stage of knowledge who want to know more about the contents of the Bible.
Razgah is based on the Bible and existing sources and is completely in Persian language to speed up the access of users to the contents of the Bible. In Razgah, there are four different translations of the Bible, which include the Old Translation, Commentary Translation, Translation of the Good News for the New Age (2023) and Sharif Translation, TOB's Translation, as well as the Book of Practical Commentary on the Old and New Testaments and Commentary on the Bible for Believers written by William Mack Donald is used.
The word finder in this program is a unique Persian tool to quickly search for words in different translations of the Bible.
Believers with any perspective should be aware of the passage of the history of the Bible from the Old Testament to the New Testament. Apocrypha and Sodapigrapha (forgotten books of Eden) help us to better understand the books of the Bible. In the translation of these two books, without adding anything to the original, an attempt has been made to make the composition of the text not only highly accurate but also provide better readability. These two books are also included in the online option of Razgah application.
In general, Razgah provides an environment for servants, students and other users so that they can access the information they need faster. In this regard, theological teachings and church rituals have also been made available to users. In fact, Razgah is an information center of the Bible in Persian, which is freely available to the public.
