God's Word for Windows
...If anybody is interested in a great low-cost Bible program, I
highly recommend [from personal experience] 'God's Word for Windows'. It
can be downloaded free (zip files) here:
http://www.spocom.com/bible/index.htm
"A full featured Bible research program for Windows 95.
Includes the full King James version, Strong's Numbers, Greek and
Hebrew Lexicons, Bible dictionary, commentary and topical index.
Supports keyword, phrase and phonetic searching using optional logical
connectives, verse notes, 4 color hilighting."
I use it on Win 98 and it is very well designed. It won't deactivate
itself after a set period of time, and if you like it, the CD is $25 and
includes the Darby and Young translations in addition to the KJV. The
program can also be set to run from the CD.
The best features in my opinion, are:
- the ability to toggle the Strong's numbers on and off in the
text,
- the ability to instantly click the Strong's numbers and change the
number (e.g. when you want to trace through the root[s] of a word),
and
- the ability to search using a combination of English word[s] and/or
Strong's numbers.
[I'm not affiliated with them; it's just a great program and I use it
every day. I tried FreeBible and found it to be awkward and cumbersome
compared to 'God's Word']
