Bible study program

Which is the best Bible study program under antiX?

Since antiX has none dedicated, I suggest to search for these in Debian (or probably Ubuntu CE though its packages may not be compatible with Debian and therefore antiX).

EDIT: If none suites you, then you may decide to go for AppImage or Snap (the latter can be used in a limited compatibility, e.g. as permanently “unpacked” file-system).

You can try this one: http://www.antixforum.com/forums/topic/bible-analyzer-will-not-open-in-antix-23/

I use “The Word” (http://www.theword.net), which is a Windows program which runs well under PlayOnLinux (easily added to antiX via Synaptic Package Manager).

This full featured program and many modules are free of charge. Some additional modules are offered for a price.

I am using an old version (version 5.0.0.1450). Some variations of version 5 did not run well under PlayOnLinux.

The current program is version 7. Since I have been happy with the old version I have, I haven’t tried any of the more recent versions. On the download page, there is a link regarding linux installation. There is also a forum related to linux users (but I have not visited there).

Depending on the depth of study that you intend to pursue, you might also find my website useful (http://www.theBookwurm.com). The opening page is informational. Click any link to “the Book” to go to the actual program. It is arranged as an online study Bible, with the KJV Bible text, and several resources from others (used by permission) and also my Book Notes on many books of the Bible. The program runs in most internet browsers, and can be downloaded for use off line. Of course, it is also free of charge.

I use bibletime, it has a huge number of public domain bibles and commentaries and study aids. I supplement it with online resources – a free account at app.logos.com will give access to many bibles and study resources that are not in the public domain.

As I stay away from Windows programs, such as “the word”,
I suppose I’ll try bibletime.
Since you already use it, can you tell me which resources you ticked after installation,
as I don’t want to bloat my system with too much data?

Depends on what I am studying at the time, and I download and remove works frequently as my needs change.

A good guide to using BibleTime and selecting basic works to download is this video by Tom Murosky on his SwitchedToLinux channel: https://youtube.com/watch?v=XcmphSzrakk
