Because I now use a Mac, I can only run BibleWorks by using software that enables a Mac to run Windows applications. When I used BibleWorks 6, I ran it on a Dell PC. My review copy includes the BDAG Greek-English Lexicon add-on module (which can be purchased separately for $150).īibleWorks 8 is designed to run on the Windows operating system (2000/ XP/Vista).
How to rip a lexicon from bibleworks full#
In the interest of full disclosure, I am reviewing a review copy sent to me gratis by BibleWorks.

For the purposes of this post, I am reviewing BibleWorks 8. The most recent version, BibleWorks 8, was released in 2008. One such software program is BibleWorks, a tool designed specifically to assist pastors, professors, and students in their exegesis of the original languages of Scripture.Īlthough available since 1992, I first began using BibleWorks (version 6) for the first time in 2003. Today, there are software tools that enable the user to do in mere seconds tasks that would have taken anywhere from several minutes to several hours (or even several days) the old way. The most helpful time-saving tools I had available at that time were various analytical lexicons.

As I mentioned in a previous review, at the time I was in seminary in the early 90s, in-depth study of the original text involved a rather large pile of open reference books all over my desk, floor, chairs, and wherever else I could find room. Many of those over the age of 40 may not even be aware of the wide range of time-saving Bible study software that is now available. Many pastors, however, are pressed for time and find it difficult to dig into the text as deeply as they would prefer. From Keith Mathison Category: ArticlesOne of the great needs of the church today is a renewed commitment to expository preaching and teaching based on a careful study of the Bible in its original languages.
