Bible Study Tools
Links to the tools I use most often, and to some that I seldom use but don't want to forget.
NET Bible Classic
My favorite; features the New English Translation (NET), provides a flexible search tool, and for each passage: translation comparisons including the original languages, Greek and Hebrew word-study tools, and links to bible dictionaries and encyclopedias, and essays, sermons and study guides.
Bible Hub
https://biblehub.com/interlinear/
Bible Hub offers a variety of tools; this link goes directly to their offering of the Interlinear Bible, which is what I use most often there.
Bible Gateway
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/
A great source for parallel (side-by-side) comparisons of (lots of) different translations; has nice search tools, and you can select up to five translations in which the search will be conducted simultaneously.
Greek Word Study Tool
http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/morph?la=greek
Greek word study tool at Tufts University provides a look at the secular meanings associated with Greek words from the New Testament. The NET tools at Bible.org only provide a Christian perspective in most cases; and sometimes it helps to see what meaning non-Christian people attached to those words.
Maps
https://www.openbible.info/geo/
The location of every identifiable place mentioned in the Bible.
Sefaria Tanakh
https://www.sefaria.org/texts/Tanakh
My first choice for insight from a Jewish perpective, this site features a modern English translation (JPS 1985) (and would be far more useful if I learned to read the commentaries that are presented in Hebrew).
The Complete Jewish Bible
https://www.chabad.org/library/bible_cdo/aid/63255/jewish/The-Bible-with-Rashi.htm
Another Jewish translation, the 1917 JPS edition with commentary by Rashi.
Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bible
A good place to get an overview of individual books; but keep in mind the challenges associated with the open editing process.
StudyLight
A searchable collection of commentaries, plus a variety of other study tools.
Bible Study Tools
https://www.biblestudytools.com/
Similar to Studylight, a collection of translations, commentaries, and other study materials.
Chronology of the Gospels
Harmony of the Gospels (http://www.lifeofchrist.com/life/harmony/)
Events from the life of Christ in approximate chronological order. When an event appears in more than one gospel, the parallel accounts are grouped together.
HTML Bible
A wide selection of (mostly older) translations, including several that I've seen nowhere else, plus translations to other modern languages.
Easy English Bible
https://www.easyenglish.bible/bible-commentaries/
The Easy English translation uses a very restricted vocabulary for the benefit of non-native speakers of English. The commentaries are also written with the same limited vocabulary.
Overview Bible
https://overviewbible.com/books-of-the-bible/
As it says on the label: a brief overview of each book; well done, with helpful graphics and charts, even some videos. See also their topical studies.
Biblical Training
https://www.biblicaltraining.org/library
A provider of online training classes, this is a link to their library.
Precept Austin
https://www.preceptaustin.org/
Good selection of commentaries.
