## Description

See more in every passage with Greek and Hebrew word tools, interlinear views, maps, notes, and Go Deeper!—now with clearer Dark Mode and faster study pages.

This is not a Bible reader. It is a study tool.

Greek and Hebrew Study Bible (GHSB) brings Scripture reading, personal study, original-language tools, and biblical context together in one complete Bible-study app: the equivalent of a study Bible, a Strong's concordance, interlinears, a notebook, and a study guide, all in your pocket.

Deep Study. Clear Truth. For a Life of Worship.

You do not need to know Greek or Hebrew to begin. Read in translation, then go as deep as you like.

READ AND STUDY
• World English Bible and Chinese Union, with the Greek and Hebrew text
• Layouts for translation, original language, parallel, and interlinear reading (columnar layout on tablets)
• Tap a Greek or Hebrew word for its definition, grammar, Strong's information, and usage
• Long-press English text to highlight, bookmark, add a note, view cross references, or open Go Deeper!
• Advanced search to find a verse you had in mind or locate where a word occurs throughout Scripture

GO DEEPER
• People and places from Scripture, with maps for many locations
• Chapter map in Bible Tools
• Lexicon search and browse
• Vocabulary lists with flashcards and testing to build your Greek and Hebrew
• Reference library of commentaries, grammar guides, and study resources

PRIVATE, AND WITH YOU EVERYWHERE YOU STUDY
Your notes, highlights, bookmarks, and vocabulary progress sync across your own Apple devices through your own iCloud account, from your Mac at your desk to your iPhone in your pocket. GHSB never uploads your study data to a vendor server, and no one but you can see it.

Works without a GHSB account. Core text and lexicon are available offline after install. Map tiles need a network connection.

Lexicon and name data include material from STEP Bible (Tyndale House), Creative Commons Attribution 4.0.

The same complete GHSB experience on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, and available on other platforms too, each one designed to feel right at home.

## What's New in This Version (1,925/4,000 chars)

This update continues the 7.02 study improvements and is ready for the latest iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

APPEARANCE
• Study panels stay easy to read in Dark Mode, with the scripture still visible around them.
• Home and splash are clearer on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, so the version and destinations are easy to find.

NOTES & HIGHLIGHTS
• Delete notes and highlights directly from their respective lists. A confirmation prompt helps prevent accidental deletions.
• Notes and highlights are now managed independently, so deleting one won't affect the other.
• To remove a highlight from a verse, open Bible Tools. We've removed this option from the reader's long-press menu to keep the menu simpler.
• Bible Tools keeps your place in Notes and Highlights as you work.
• Tap a note in Bible Tools to open that verse and the note together.

READING
• Scripture pages open promptly, with interlinear text and tap-a-word language information ready for study.
• Bookmark and note indicators now appear directly before the verse number and match its size, making them easier to spot as you read.
• Add more space between verses by enabling Space Between Verses in Settings -> Display Layout. This option is available in both Full Page and Columnar layouts.
• On iPad, the book and chapter picker remains available when GHSB is displayed in a smaller window, including Stage Manager and Split View.

STUDY
• Map pins now open Go Deeper! directly, replacing the previous information icon.
• When you tap a Greek or Hebrew word, its Strong's number and KJV wording now appear directly below the Canonical Form.
• Reference PDFs now open at a comfortable reading width, with the top of the page positioned for immediate reading.
• Bible Tools Search lets you know when a search has no matches.
• In Settings, What's New sits beside Quick Start, and the version and build appear at the bottom of the screen.

Thank you for studying with GHSB.

## Review summary

Users praise the app's depth: word-by-word parsing, touch-access lexical data, robust interlinear features, and broad reference materials that aid language study. However, repeated concerns center on font/typography changes hindering readability, issues with updates causing crashes or unusable features, and questions about lexicon accuracy. Additional criticisms include readability of color schemes and limited support/maintenance. Overall, the app remains a powerful study tool for many, but ongoing typography, stability, and support issues keep ratings mixed.

### Pros

- Word-by-word parsing with touch-access lexical data makes Hebrew/Greek study quick and intuitive.
- Interlinear text with fast access to parsing and definitions, plus a robust lexicon; tap a word to view lexical entries.
- Broad reference content and easy navigation/search that many language learners find valuable.
- Readable presentation and overall usability when typography and layout are favorable.

### Cons

- Fonts and typography changes significantly reduce readability of Hebrew/Greek text; users want the old Biblical Hebrew font or an option to customize fonts.
- Color schemes and font sizes in some views hinder reading (e.g., white background, black/blue text, very small fonts).
- Update-induced bugs and crashes (e.g., cannot pull up verses, app exits on certain books; font size controls not working).
- Perceived issues with the interlinear/lexicon quality (not a true lexicon; translations and parsing sometimes inaccurate or incomplete).
- Support and maintenance concerns (limited response from developers and broken contact links).
