Scriptura

Scriptura is a focused Bible study application for the Linux desktop. A calm, two-pane reading view sits at its center, with a full study library never more than a click away.

It brings together:

• Side-by-side reading of two translations with synchronized scrolling, plus a distraction-free reading mode.
• Original-language word study — click any word for its Hebrew or Greek root, its grammar, and every other place it appears.
• A database of 340,000 cross-references linking related passages.
• Highlights, notes, and topical tags, all gathered into one searchable study journal.
• Full-text search across any installed text, and reading plans that track your progress day by day.
• A large, installable library of modern and classic Bibles, commentaries, devotionals, and reference works.

Everything is stored on your computer with no telemetry. Scriptura connects to the network only to download the texts and reference data you choose.
