COOL TOOLS: Online Interlinear Bible

An interlinear Bible is one which gives you the translated English text in parallel with the relevant original Greek or Hebrew text of the scripture. It is a great resource if you are curious EXACTLY what a specific word or phrase meant when the original writer put it down. These tend to be expensive, but now you can find free tools to do the same thing online! If you're interested to see the language the original writers were working in, it is worth clicking through and trying it out.

Online Parallel Bible

We use the New International Version exclusively for Bible Quizzing, but every translation of scripture from the original Greek has its own strengths and weaknesses. If you are interested in seeing other translations while studying scripture, you may want to check out the Online Parallel Bible. It provides tools not only for checking different English, but also for checking back to the original language using an interlinear presentation. It can be a very exciting way to try to get deeper into the scriptures!
