## Description

PARALLEL PLUS Bible-study app helps pastors, teachers, and serious students compare up to 8 Bible versions side-by-side in parallel columns, with Greek and Hebrew word studies, verse lists, and unabridged lexical resources. Tap any word to view the corresponding Hebrew/Greek term, its occurrences, parsing, parts of speech, phonetics, and translation tips. The layout minimizes eye movement so you can stay focused on the Scriptures.

Its verse-by-verse study tools include color-coded grammar, word families, and cross-version phrase searches. The app aligns verses by content and focuses on reading rather than commentary, with support for multiple languages. Free to install from TheBible.org.
