Scripture Translations

We are grateful for the publishers who make their translations available. Each translation page includes proper attribution and licensing information. Some translations are in the public domain, while others are used by permission.

Scripture quotations are © their respective publishers. Please see our License & Scripture Credits page for complete details.

AI Explanations

Our AI-powered explanations are tools to assist your Bible study, not substitutes for prayer, the Holy Spirit's guidance, or sound biblical teaching. We use grammatical-historical hermeneutics principles to provide context-based insights including:

• Historical and cultural context
• Original language insights (Hebrew, Greek, Aramaic)
• Word studies with lexical data
• Cross-references and thematic connections
• Modern applications and implications

While we strive for accuracy, we encourage you to test everything against Scripture itself and seek guidance from mature believers and pastors.

"But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you." — Matthew 6:33 (ESV)
