Description. PACKED WITH RESOURCES YOU’LL FIND NOWHERE ELSE. Only the Zondervan Bible Study Library is built on today’s most used, most trusted Bible translation, the New International Version (NIV). This is the only software that is a completely NIV-based reference system.

It gives you the exact relationship of the NIV word to the Greek or Hebrew, allowing you to conduct thorough original language studies.

But don’t think its powerful advantages are only available to NIV users. You’ll find a broad selection of Bible translations and classic study resources—all in an intuitive format that’s designed to make you feel instantly at home, so you can spend your time studying God’s Word, not the owner’s manual. This is material you’ll actually use, resources you already know, trust, and reach for consistently.

NIV-BASED. MULTI-TRANSLATIONAL. INTUITIVE. Study multiple resources simultaneously, including the complete NIV, eight other translations, exegetical commentaries, seminary-level textbooks, multiple dictionaries, encyclopedias, original languages, and much more.

TRANSPARENT. Conduct complex searches without understanding computer-ese.

Designed similar to many sophisticated web search engines you’re familiar with so you can focus on the content, not learning computer language.

POWERFUL. More powerful than a print interlinear!

The translation view provides everything you need to understand the relationship between the English word in the NIV and the original biblical language.

Simply right click on any Greek or Hebrew word and see the grammatical form to gain an understanding of syntax and nuance of meaning.

USER-DRIVEN. Write as many personal notes as you need and link them to verses or topics.

INTUITIVE. When conducting an English language word search, the software automatically points out all the words used to translate the Greek or Hebrew.

Words in green are aids in translation, words in red combine to translate the Greek word.

FLEXIBLE. Many features are easy to use because they’re designed like programs you frequently use.
