The current Bible/Study Bible sale has caused me to realise just how good the Olive Tree app is in terms of its ability to have your Bible translation open and access to all your Study Bible's in the split screen. I wonder if Logos could incorporate this into the Study Bible app?
I like the way that Life Bible (formerly Tecarta) on tablets handles study bibles... they are very easy to access through the Explain function.Selecting a Study Bible opens it in the window and you can then read it and then return to the list, all in the same window. I like it better than Logos' web app's "Insights" beta, because it gives a quick synopsis of many study bibles or commentaries. It's kind of like a passage list, but easier to navigate through. It would be great if Logos had a simplified feature like that.

Sentimental as I am about hardcopies, the feel of paper and book bindings, I figured I should give a Bible app a try. I downloaded Glo Bible on my iPad and have been using it daily for the last two months.
In a hardcopy Bible, you can write a lot in the margins. You can highlight and color-coordinate to your hearts desire. You can draw lines between verses. You can make graphs and draw pictures and do all the little things that mean something to you, that will make you remember what you want to remember. And, best of all, all those scribbles and thoughts jump out at you whenever you open your Bible again. You can scan a chapter for a specific note, or just admire (perhaps somewhat vainly) how colorful and ink-filled your margins have become. The ability to share notes is a nice thing about digital Bibles, but the actual art of note-taking is almost completely lost.
Digital Bibles, I think, are neither more or less useful than paper Bibles in terms of memorizing scripture. But I do think digital Bibles are far less useful when it comes to learning the books of the Bible, the length of them, and their order.
I agree with you 100% Wanita , The King James Bible is the only authorized bible. Authorized by the King of Kings in heaven , who used King James to authorize it on earth ! The Spirit of God is in the King James . Other bibles omit the blood and change entire verses . I give you a few examples. Read King James verses and compare them to NIV or other bibles . Matt 17:21 , Matt 18:11 , The deity of Jesus, Phil 2:6 , and Luke 2:33 The blood , Col 1:14 People are reading these other bibles and do not realize the are being led astray , even pastors uses quotes from other bibles , because they do not understand ! As the word of the Lord said , my people are being destroyed for of lack of knowledge ! Thanks for posting the truth and May God continue filling you with knowledge and wisdom in His word !
The compilers of the King James Bible considered it authorized by King James. If you have a copy old enough that it still contains the dedication to King James you will discover that to be the truth. In that dedication, they ascribe words to King James that should only rightly be used of God and Jesus Christ Himself.
It is the Holy Spirit who gives life to the written Word as we come to it in faith. He breathes that Word into us afresh, just as He did into the apostles and prophets who originally wrote it down. It is not the medium that is inspired by the Holy Spirit, it is the message.
In all actuality the King James Version of today is really much different from the 1611 translation. In 1769 the translation was revised to be understood and over 75,000 changes were made to the first edition.
I use Youversion app for my devotional reading and for various reading plans.
For study, there are many excellent Bible apps filled with study resources and multiple translations. I have settled on the Tecarta Bible app for myself, but will use many other online resources as needed.
I agree with everything you said! I have an app for Bible tools, an app with different translations, and a KJV app. I use them to study and teach. I take my hard copy up to the podium along with my written notes and my phone. What I am finding is people in the church have become traditional and religious and have a difficult time embracing change.
So true!! Nothing like the real thing. Nothing can replace holding the bible in your hands, and reading it. My bible is my life . the digital bible is useful in a pinch but not a replacement for the real thing. The life and meaning that comes from the bible in book form is definitely more alive then in reading it in digital. It will never match up. Prise the Lord for his word in book form.
Good points.. But let me tell you the main reason i use a bible app more than the actual bible. For one you can hold your phone in one hand, laying on your back, side etc and still be comfortable. You can read it at night no separate lights needed. Adjust the font to relieve eye strain. I get terrible neck pains and headaches hunched over for more than 15 minutes. Again a phone can be held with one hand and can be held low, high in the middle etc without any arm strain. Try that with your 1 pound and heaver bible. Your arm will feel like its going to fall off. I say use whatever is most comfortable. Everyone is different. Does not matter how we are fed as long as we are being fed the word.
Get the King James paper bible ! When you read a Spirit filled bible your eyes will drop tears on the pages, and your mouth will give thanksgiving on what you are receiving from the word. Will not happen on an app , plus the Spirit of God has not been experienced in app. ( Not by me anyway , and I doubt if anyone else has .)
I could not disagree more. It is faster when you also while studying to pull up a concordance page. I use world pad to make notes and look up questions for later. Not sure what your app is but mine has only Gods word and no distractions.
Hebrews 4:12
For the Word of God is Alive and Active.
Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow ; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart!
Thank you for this article. It had some really good points. I would like to note something about one of your points, however, pun intended. I have been using my free version of the Logos software while taking notes in church. It is awkward typing on a tablet, even with a swipe keyboard, but I can look at those notes from any digital device. I can also turn them off or on. Sometimes notes in the Bible become distracting from simply reading the Bible. By turning off the notes, I can read without any distractions. Just a thought. Again, I really enjoyed your article.
I too have found some eBible software frustraiting and lacking functionality. But I have also found eBible software that is faster than manual lookups, far easier to read by adjusting the font and font size, and supports all kinds of note taking capabilities. EBible software made it easy for me to complete a 12 week online seminary course which involved tons of online reading.
I agree, it is very frustrating not to see my own note or an icon to my notes beside the scripture, but have to go somewhere else to find it. If they had been smart they would have done it that way, and also make it possible for that icon (to my notes) showing up at other scriptures that I connect to the study.
The solution for making the transition from paper bibles to digital is The Remarkable Bible. Having the need to replicate the experience from paper to digital as precisely as possible, I created this solution in 2018 and started using it daily in 2019. It is truly great and free to use. 152ee80cbc
