So, for instance, say you're reading Proverbs. BW7 has two editors: one you can keep linked either to verses or chapters, and one that is whatever you want it to be. BW6 had a text editor, but it was very buggy, limited, unreliable. Editors! This, in my mind, may be the single coolest thing about this upgrade.Then, mid-stream, you can step aside from any of them to do searches or other bypaths on Tab 5. You can keep track of your daily reading on Tab 1, then have your sermon text study on Tab 2, your Bible study on Tab 3, your research paper outline on Tab 4. Now there are a dozen tabs, and you can have that many separate readings going at the same time, saved every time you close and re-open BW7. Tabs! Used to be that, if you had a study going, and a Bible-reading plan, you'd have to create two setups, and open BW twice.Ugh.) Futato has good pedagogical focus, and works to get the reader actually into the Old Testament. (But he's very proud of his inclusive language. He focuses on being brief and to the point, uses examples from the Septuagint as well as made-up sentences to be sure the student doesn't just apply his memorized English version to his exercises.

Also, I have Daniel Wallace's Greek Grammar beyond the Basics, another terrific reference work, full of useful studies and all keyed in to the text Futato's Basic Hebrew for Bible Study, and N. So if Waltke-O'Connor has a discussion of the syntax of the verse I'm reading or studying, it pops up instantly in the right pane. One is Waltke and O'Connor's Hebrew grammar, which is a massive and useful advanced work remember, it's keyed in with the whole text of BW7. In addition to HALOT and BAGD, I have four additional modules.
There are many additional resources you can get for an extra price. But those and more are all part of the package. (I figure that if you don't know the acronyms, you don't care if I'm wrong, ask.)īut wait, there's more! You get the whole Greek NT diagramed Conybeare's grammar of Septuagint Greek MacDonald's Greek Enchiridion, the Archer/Chirichigno work laying out and discussing all the NT quotations of the OT, and the Septuagint lexicon by Lust (long "u"), and Metzger's textual commentary on the Greek NT, Burton's Moods and Tenses, Davis' grammar - and a whole lot more.ĭid I say "more"? Like the old ISBE, Robertson's Word Pictures, the Treasury of Scripture Knowledge, satellite Bible maps, Bible outlines. Then, for a reasonable additional price, you can add the latest editions of BAGD and HALOT, as I did. For the Greek NT, you get Thayer, Gingrich's Shorter Lexicon, and others for the Hebrew, there's good ol' Brown-Driver-Briggs, but there's also Holladay's lexicon and the TWOT. When you buy the basic package, you get an astonishing array of original-language resources. There is another tab in that pane, which displays all the resources you have installed, whether on that word (in the lexica), or on the syntax or even textual condition of that verse (in the grammars and Metzger). At the same time, whatever lexicon you've chosen instantly displays the full entry on that word in the right pane.
Point your mouse at a Hebrew or Greek term, and a parsing and simple definition pops up right in your display window. You can easily display in one version, or verse by verse in as many versions as you like.
