This is one impressive program. We're extremely impressed by the features, content and functionality that SwordSearcher offers. It's a great example of what good software is capable of.
SwordSearcher's main window lays out four "surfaces" for Bible study: the Bible Panel, the Book and Dictionary Panel, the Commentary Panel, and Search Results. While each panel may be hidden, they never overlap. You won't be lost in a deluge of cascading windows and finding what you need is quick and direct.
Deep Referencing links verses to every resource available: other books, other verses, topical references, dictionaries, encyclopedias, and more. No more searching for topics or dictionary headings that might be relevant to the passage you are reading - SwordSearcher puts it all a click away.
If you're studying the Bible, either as a believer or a scholar, you can't do it better than with SwordSearcher. It's powerful study features and intuitive interface make it ideal for both devotional and in-depth study.
