Interlinear Bible with Hebrew and Greek

An interlinear Bible displays the original Hebrew or Greek text of scripture directly alongside its English translation, word by word. Unlike a standard Bible translation where you only see the translator's final English rendering, an interlinear lets you see exactly which Hebrew or Greek word corresponds to each English word -- and what that original word actually means.

The Old Testament was originally written in Biblical Hebrew (with small portions in Aramaic), while the New Testament was composed in Koine Greek. Every English Bible, including the King James Version used by Christians, is a translation of these original texts. Translation always involves interpretive choices, and sometimes a single Hebrew word carries a richness of meaning that no single English word can capture.

Gospel Daily's Interlinear Reader gives you direct access to both Hebrew and Greek texts for every verse in the Old and New Testaments. Each original-language word is displayed with its transliteration (so you can see how it sounds), its Strong's concordance number (linking to the full lexical entry), and its English gloss. You can tap any word to explore its root meaning, see every other place it appears in scripture, and trace its semantic range.

For Christians, this tool opens a dimension of scripture study that was previously available only through expensive academic software or years of language training. When you can see that the Hebrew word translated as 'lovingkindness' in the KJV is 'hesed' -- a covenantal term describing God's steadfast, loyal love -- passages about God's mercy take on deeper resonance.
