There are so many really good Bible study resources online that I wanted to share my list. One good thing about being locked down is having the time and quiet to really focus on serious study. I decided a long time ago that I should know more about God's Word than I do about who was on which sitcom or what was going on in the life of some cute celebrity...
I don't have a lot of extra money so having these resources is awesome. I have access to all kinds of Bible versions and tools for studying the Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek origins. There are commentaries, audio (sermons and Bible reading), places to take notes, etc.I keep a large bookmarked folder just for resources like this.
Before posting the study links, I think it would be good to point toward some resources for methods of and reasons for Bible study:
I'd also like to add a personal suggestion. What helps me as a fairly new and growing reader of the Bible is having more than one version. That's why I use eSword. I like to be able to pull up a parallel of the KJV, ESV, and NASB. And reading commentaries is super helpful. My favorites in the eSword (some downloaded from user submissions for eSword):
If you can't find these on Amazon or free online, check the link below I list for eSword modules.
Here is Part One of my list. I will be adding If you use the sources, please try to donate whenever you can. I use eSword daily so I try donating at least 5 dollars every time I can. Enjoy!
I like adding the Jewish-centered resources because I think people tend to forget that our Lord is Jewish. Another interesting link is here where you can "tour" the Holy Land through a "Visual Israel Experience".
Once you land on these pages, you should definitely look around. There are many additional links on these pages where I have found some good information.
By the way, for anyone who took my advice about using eSword as a free desktop Bible study tool, I have great news. This is a page where you can find even more free resources that can be added into eSword as modules. CAUTION: as ever, be discerning. There are various items that I, personally. don't feel jibe with standard doctrine.
As always, please strongly consider making donations on any of these resources. Most, if not all, are free the last time I checked. Donating to them will help keep them online and available for more people to benefit from.
Peace
