Accordance Bible Software VS Xiphos

The recommendation for Logos is a good one, but take a look at Accordance as well. I find it runs a bit better and prefer it for Bible study and working with the original languages, but Logos is very capable and has a wider range of resources available. If you're studying theology and thinking of going into the ministry then I'd highly recommend getting into one of them and starting to build a library. It's a much... Source: over 1 year ago

A good resource to begin to look into some of your questions regarding translation might be Accordance Bible Software. I don't know what tradition you come from, but many Seminary's have classes and professors which I've found to be an incredibly helpful resource. Source: almost 2 years ago

Hey, I'm new to python. I'm wondering, because I use text files for different bible translations in a Bible Software program called Accordance. And I want to correct a translation/Text File, because it has an issue, where, sometimes, sentences have not been written correctly (via Webscraping) into the text file. Source: about 2 years ago

Just wanted to mention that if you use Accordance Bible Software, you can buy the OSB notes and use them alongside the translation of your choice. The same seems to be possible with Logos. Source: over 2 years ago

The other tool I use a lot is Xiphos, which works natively on Linux and is available from the software repo for my Linux distro (Ubuntu). It isn't as powerful as theWord, but it also has a nice and large module repository and is quite comfortable to use for me. Source: about 1 year ago

Xiphos is a Bible study tool written for Linux, UNIX, and Windows using GTK, offering a rich and featureful environment for reading, study, and research using modules from The SWORD Project and elsewhere. It is open-source software, and available free-of-charge to all. Software can be found at: https://xiphos.org/. Source: over 1 year ago

Note that there's also the "KJVAE (King James Version, American Edition)", that one's different. And I'm actually having a hard time finding a site I trust that has the original AKJV online, so I don't have a link. However, it is available as a module for theWord Bible Software, as well as for Bible software that uses the SWORD module library (like Xiphos and the Bishop mobile app). Source: almost 2 years ago

If you're in the US or some other equally free nation, then you can go straight for the Bible. I would hop on Blue Letter Bible for starters. If you decide to go into in-depth study, theWord and e-Sword would be what I would spring for next. Note that those work on Windows - if you're on a Mac, Eloquent should work - I've never used it, but it looks nice. And if you're a Linux user, Xiphos should have you covered.

The only downside to this approach is that, while theWord is free, the NASB module is somewhat pricey. However, there's so many other translations in there for free, so you should be able to find something to fit your needs. If you're looking for a free NASB, you can use Xiphos. The NASB is in the "Lockman Foundation" module repository. That way, you can put Xiphos on one side of the screen, put theWord on the... Source: about 2 years ago
