ScriptSearch is a powerful all-in-one Bible study and search app designed to help you explore Scripture faster, deeper, and more intuitively. Whether you're tracing a theme, chasing a cross-reference, studying biblical languages, or reading classic commentary, ScriptSearch helps you get there in seconds. Now export in PDF or docx. SEARCH SMARTER Go beyond a basic Bible concordance. Search a verse or passage and instantly see every match, highlighted right in the text. Run a theme search to discover related Scripture you didn't know to look for. Use connection search to follow any verse across the entire Bible through cross-references, synonyms, and thematic links - and see why each connection surfaced, with clear tags for Scofield references, community-affirmed cross-references, and shared themes. One unified results list ranks the strongest connections first, with an optional "text matches only" filter. SCOFIELD REFERENCE BIBLE & GAEBELEIN COMMENTARY Study with two commentaries - C. I. Scofield's Reference Bible (1917) and Arno C. Gaebelein's Annotated Bible (1913–1922) - woven throughout the app. Verses show an inline marker: tap to read without leaving your reading - Scofield's concise notes with their classic catchword lead, or Gaebelein's passage-by-passage exposition. Every book opens with an introduction from your chosen source. Scofield's cross-references also power connection search as full, two-directional passages. Add any commentary to a study note in a single tap. CLARENCE LARKIN'S PROPHETIC CHARTS All 90 charts from Clarence Larkin's Dispensational Truth (1920), the drawings generations of Bible students learned the ages from. More than 1,450 Scripture references printed on the charts are tappable: Study it or read it in context. Verses that appear on the charts link back to them from the Bible reader, commentary, reading plans and connection search. WORD STUDY - GREEK & HEBREW Tap any verse to explore it word by word in biblical Greek and Hebrew. Powered by the Textus Receptus (New Testament) and the Masoretic Text (Old Testament), each word includes its definition, transliteration, pronunciation, and grammatical form explained in plain English. Search the Strong's Concordance to find every occurrence of any word across the entire Bible, filtered by book. AUTO STUDY NOTES ScriptSearch automatically (and optionally) keeps track of the searches you run, the connections you explore, the passages you read, and the commentary you consult - then offers to save it all as a study note when you're done. Scofield references are saved as tappable links you can reopen or import inline. Every session becomes a record of where your study took you. BUILD A WEB OF INTERCONNECTED STUDIES Through automated study tracking, build a web of interconnected ideas and link your studies together through bi-directional notes. STUDY TOGETHER Create or join a private study group and explore Scripture alongside others. Share your studies and favorite verses to the group, then talk them through in real-time group chat and comment on what others post. HIGHLIGHT & BOOKMARK PASSAGES Mark Scripture with color highlights. Bookmark any verse so you can find it instantly. Everything you mark is saved, organized, and backed up to your account. DAILY DISCOVERY Start each day with a verse and connected passages curated around a theme - now drawn from richly annotated Scripture, so there's always commentary to explore. A fresh starting point for your Bible study, every morning. ScriptSearch is the Bible study app for anyone who wants to go deeper - one connection at a time.
