What translation does the Bible Reader use?

The Bible Reader uses the KJ3 (King James 3) Literal Translation by Jay P. Green Sr. This is a word-for-word literal translation from the Hebrew Masoretic Text (Old Testament) and the Greek Textus Receptus (New Testament). It uses assembly instead of church and Jehovah for the divine name.

What is the Hebrew and Greek interlinear feature?

The interlinear shows every word in the original language with its English translation, Strongs concordance number, TWOT reference (for Hebrew), and grammatical parsing. The Old Testament covers 304,825 Hebrew words across 23,213 verses, and the New Testament covers 137,554 Greek words across 7,927 verses.

What is TWOT and how does it work in the Bible Reader?

TWOT stands for Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament, a reference work that organizes Hebrew words by their root meanings. In the Bible Reader, clicking any Hebrew word in the interlinear view shows its TWOT number, root family, and theological significance.
