Features & Capabilities

The Eastern Orthodox Bible is a scholarly translation and edition of the Holy Scriptures based on the Patriarchal Greek Orthodox with extensive introductory material.

Only the New Testament is available.

This New Testament text is based on the official ecclesiastical text published in 1904 by the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople (documenting all significant variants to the Critical Text, Majority Text and Textus Receptus). It also provides extensive footnotes.

The main purpose of the EOB is to provide an accurate and easy-to-read English text of the Holy Scriptures that is suitable for use by Orthodox Christian communities and individuals, while providing an outstanding text for scholars.

User Reviews

Users praise the Orthodox translation quality, helpful footnotes, and ease of use, along with good value for money. Recurrent drawbacks include the missing Old Testament and Orthodox Lectionary, a buggy or absent search function, and concerns that the translation resembles NKJV rather than a full Eastern Orthodox rendering. Some desire landscape mode and more UI tweaks. Overall, it's a solid, affordable reader for study and devotion, especially for catechumens, with ongoing updates likely to address content gaps and feature requests.
Pros
  • Authentic Eastern Orthodox translation with extensive footnotes and book introductions.
  • Very easy to use and has intuitive navigation for looking up verses.
  • Excellent value for money—low price for a feature-rich Orthodox Bible.
  • Rich devotional and catechetical material—helpful for study and catechumen.
  • Available on iPhone; makes the Orthodox text accessible on mobile.
Cons
  • Old Testament is not included yet; missing content is a major drawback.
  • Orthodox Lectionary is not available in the app.
  • Search function sometimes fails or is not working.
  • Some reviewers feel the translation resembles NKJV and may not reflect Orthodox tradition.
  • Partial release (only NT currently; OT in progress) and questions about future updates.
