There is far more instantly accessible information available through this one simple act of moving the cursor than I can fit in one review. It will also take you directly to the entry for that word in all of your lexicons.

For example, if you place the cursor over any Greek word in the NT text, you will immediately see the root form and the full parsing. Instant Deep Information – In other words, simply move the cursor over a word, and a wealth of information is instantly available in the analysis screen.The rest may be found on the BW website here. The features remain the most helpful aspect of BW, and there are too many to cover in detail in this review. It is now shipped on a USB flash drive, making installation a breeze. In the past, BW was installed from several CD-ROM discs or a single DVD-ROM.

Thankfully, the software designers heard the complaints, and beginning with BW9, the software could be run directly on a Mac without the separate software. It wasn't ideal, and one of complaints in the earlier review was that BW was not available for Mac users. When I switched to a Mac, I had to use separate software (in my case Parallels Desktop) that enabled me to run BW on my Mac. If your time is valuable, it will pay for itself within a few weeks.įor years, BW was available for PCs only. My advice? If you are a pastor, a professor, or a college or seminary student who is regularly studying and working with the original languages, you cannot afford not to own BW. The newest version, BibleWorks 10, has recently been released, so it seems like a good time to update my review.īibleWorks (BW) is a software tool designed specifically to assist pastors, professors, and students in their exegesis of the original languages of Scripture. In 2009, I wrote a review of BibleWorks 8, a software program released in 2008.
