Added Greek New Testament Daily Readings

I have now added the Resurgence Greek Project site www.zhubert.com to my blog and hope that it will give daily readings from the Greek New Testament on this site.This is the site by Zach Hubert and formerly accessed at a previous web page. Just put your mouse over the Scripture reference and click on it which will then hyperlink to the reading of the day!!

Bible Arc-ing

I have started using another magnificent program for studying and analyzing the Scriptures. It is based on the principles taught by Fuller Seminary's Emeritus Professor, Dr. Daniel Fuller and espoused by others such as Dr. John Piper. The website is http://www.biblearc.com/
Try it out, see what amazing things you can do and discover from the Bible passage you are studying, and then support Andy, the seminary student who designed the program that got this resource online! Thanks to Andy, we can all benefit from Professor Fuller's approach even if we didn't complete our Seminary Studies from Fuller Seminary!
If only ScriptureDirect [ http://www.scripturedirect.com referred to and linked in a previous entry on this blog] and BibleArc could combine their approaches into one program - wow would that make NT studies and exegesis rock [and roll]!

ESV Study Bible

Thankfully I received the other day a free copy of the ESV Study Bible from Crossway Books. I have begun looking at this wonderful Study Bible and will be using it in comparison of the,I think, equally wonderful NLT Study Bible referred to in an earlier posting on this blog. I have already purchased a leather edition of the ESV Study Bible which arrived on the same day as the hardback edition. future postings will include mind map comparisons of these two fantastic resources.
Here is the address for the ESV Study Bible that you can try using chapters from the Gospel of Matthew http://www.esvstudybible.org

ScriptureDirect: New Generation Bible Software

Here is the hyperlink for getting to this fantastic program that I am evaluating and gratefully using http://www.scripturedirect.com . I will be continuing to add my discoveries and comments about this program regularly. It is available for both Windows and Mac users with equally stunning and impressive results.

New Living Study Bible

Thankfully, I have recently received a copy of the NewLiving Study Bible. I will be giving reviews of various aspects of this superb [on initial investigations] study Bible on this site over the new several weeks. What a wonderful gift! Here is the address for the NLT Study Bible online version

Please be patient as it takes a few seconds to load. It must load Java first then the visualization.
Here is a new way of visualizing text that I am trying out. This is in a form called Wordle. I can also visualize the text in a Text Cloud or in a Word Tree.
I shall add these as samples later.
