CNET Editors' review
The Bible is a complex document, and studying it can be a lifelong endeavor for clergy and laypeople alike. Bible Analyzer is a tool that can help you with your Bible studies, whether you're preparing a sermon or just trying to deepen your understanding for your own benefit.
At first glance, Bible Analyzer's interface is a little overwhelming, with six different modules containing all sorts of different information. Take a little time to familiarize yourself, though, and it starts to make sense pretty quickly. A narrow module on the left lists all of the Bible's books in order, and clicking on one displays its text in the Bible module. You can view the King James Version, the American Standard Version, or both versions side by side. The commentary module lets you view notes from The People's New Testament or the Scofield Bible Reference, as well as record your own notes, and the dictionary module gives access to the American Tract Society Dictionary, the Scofield Reference Bible Notes Index, and Torrey's New Topical Textbook. The ScripturePad is a built-in word processor with which you can take notes or create lessons or sermons from within the program. We were quite impressed with the wide array of features that Bible Analyzer offers: a built-in text reader, daily devotions, a quiz function, and much more. You can even create new modules to customize Bible Analyzer's appearance and content. The program's built-in Help file is comprehensive and includes plenty of screen captures. Overall, we think that Bible Analyzer is a powerful and flexible tool that's appropriate for anyone who's serious about Bible study.
Bible Analyzer installs a desktop icon without asking but uninstalls cleanly.

"Excellent Program"
Version: Bible Analyzer 4.2.2
Pros
An easy to navigate interface that's well laid out
Cons
I haven't found anything
Summary
I've explored a number of Bible programs, with many having a confusing interface. I like the no hassle layout of this program. It's easy to learn how to navigate through the several tools that the program includes. While the basic program is offered for free (and that may be enough for some users), the program can be expanded with the purchase of add-ons from the developer. Very nice program and I'm pleased to have found it.

"Good basic program"
Version: Bible Analyzer 4.2.2
Pros
It does a wide variety of searching and comentary work.
Cons
Biggest draw back is that it only uses 2 bible versions, king James and American standard of 1901. With many new translations, this is missing a major study advantage. But it is free so don't complain too loudly.
Summary
Good to start a search or study with. But you will end up needing many other resources that this product does not supply.

Cons
Can't find a complaint yet.
Summary
If you really want to dig deep into scripture, this is an excellent program. I can imagine teachers preparing bible study would find it extremely helpful.

"Great tool for 'Bible Study"
Version: Bible Analyzer 4.1.1
Pros
Very intuitive with many references.
Cons
Only add more references.
Summary
Recommend it to anyone for use in studying the Bible
-
"One of the best tools ever for Bible Study!!"
Version: Bible Analyzer 4.0.5
Pros
There is just so much information available right at my finger tips. Instead of needing several reference books I have a wealth of information that I can compare, cross reference, and build a true understanding.
Cons
Well there is very little that i don't like. Most of my difficulties with this, as well as other programs, is my inability to interact fully. I use a voice typing program and sometimes have difficulty navigating the full capabilities of the software.
Summary
I highly recommend this to anyone who is serious about Biblical Studies, and also for those who just need a foundational program to start their study of the Bible. It offers the best resources for both beginner and those , like myself, who have been studying formally for almost 30 years. I use it regularly in my research and study toward my Doctorate in Early Christian History.
