Overview
Most Bible readers present a single translation. This app was built for students, scholars, and curious readers who want to engage with scripture in its original languages โ without needing to leave the app to cross-reference a separate interlinear or lexicon.
The reader presents two columns in sync: the original ancient text on one side, and the KJV on the other. Scroll one column and the other follows. Tap a word in the ancient text to see its transliteration, Strong's number, and a brief definition.

Why This Exists
Interlinear Bibles exist in print, but digital versions are often clunky, expensive, or locked behind subscriptions. This reader is a free, clean, and fast alternative that puts the original languages front and center without overwhelming the reader with academic apparatus.
The goal is to make the ancient texts approachable โ not just for scholars, but for anyone curious about what the original words actually said.
