Berean Bible Search

"They received the word with all readiness of the mind, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so." — Acts 17:11

Berean Bible Search is a fast, careful Bible search and study app for readers, pastors, Bible teachers and students. Search the Scriptures, compare versions, study the words behind the text, and keep your notes — most of it works offline.
