Resize the study sheet while keeping the text above it. WEB has no word tagging; open the same verse in KJV or BSB to study its words. • Lexicon search: English, Strong's number, transliteration, Greek or Hebrew • Cross references: ranked connections between Bible passages • Your Words: a local history of the words you have studied • Listen: BSB narration by Barry Hays, downloaded per book from GitHub and kept for offline playback.
