STEP Bible

STEP stands for 'Scripture Tools for Every Person' and is designed to give users across the world, particularly those in disadvantaged countries, free access to trustworthy Bible expertise. Created by Bible scholars at Tyndale House, Cambridge, UK, it is curated by a non-denominational body of scholars and other volunteers who are passionate about sharing accurate information on the Bible. STEPBible offers numerous tools for exploring the Bible in many languages, including its original languages, along with Hebrew and Greek dictionaries and concordances, and much more.

Bible Hub

Including a library of audio Bibles, mobile apps, devotionals, email newsletters, and other free resources, Bible Gateway equips you not only to read the Bible, but to understand it.

Open Bible

OpenBible.info is a website that provides various resources related to the Bible, including geocoding of Biblical locations, topical Bible data, and other tools for studying and understanding the Bible, including an open-source Bible for download, sharing, and development.

Strong's Concordance

Modern technology renders Strong's original concordance obsolete, since a computer can duplicate Strong's work in a fraction of a second. However, Strong's Hebrew and Greek lexicons are still used today as a reference tool, and Strong's original numbering system of Hebrew and Greek words has become the standard for original language reference in study of the Bible. This site duplicates most of the original content of Strong's Concordance with a word search as well as a lexicon search. Words in the Concordance search are linked the lexicon entries.

Webster's Dictionary / Webster's Thesaurus

Merriam-Webster, an Encyclopaedia Britannica company, has been America's leading provider of language information for more than 180 years.

etymonline

etymonline is an online etymology dictionary that offers quick and reliable accounts of the origin and history of English words. Scholarly, yet simple. Etymologies are not definitions; they are explanations of what words meant 600 or 2,000 years ago. Think of it as looking at pictures of your friends' parents when they were your age. These are histories of words only, not things or ideas. The modern word for something might have replaced old, forgotten words for the same object or concept. The site often tells you what they were.

Today in Christian History

The Christian History Institute hosts this page which provides a daily list of events in Christian history. To see a specific date, simply add the month and day to the end of the URL. For example, to see events specifically on June 1st, add "/6/1" after "today" in the web address.

Hebcal (Hebrew Calendar)

Hebcal (pronounced HEEB-kal, as in Hebrew calendar) is a free Jewish calendar and holiday web site offering a powerful custom Jewish calendar tool that can generate a list of Jewish holidays for any year, as well as a date converter, and much more.
