Bible Software on Ubuntu Linux

As a Christian I am keenly interested in software that can help when studying the Bible. Coming from the Mac OS where there are no good Bible software offerings anything would be a blessing. So, for all you fellow Ubuntu-using Christians here is what I found GnomeSword 2 is the only Gnome-native app of the bunch (I am running Ubuntu 8.04 with the Gnome desktop). It is based on Crosswire’s Sword project.
Overall this is a great Bible study application. While it is very simple, lacking many of the features of the more advanced apps (like Sword Searcher and e-Sword discussed below), there are a few things that Gnome Sword excels at. It integrates into the default Ubuntu desktop very well. Navigating to new books and chapters is very easy. The text of each chapter is displayed in a clean font. But what it really excels at is finding and adding new Bible texts (or any text.) It has a very simple method of connecting to Crosswire’s remote server, allowing you to browse all available translations in any language. When you have checked all the texts you want it downloads and installs them in one fell swoop. Here is a screen shot of the Module Manager.
Like GnomeSword, BibleTime is based on the sword project. It it very similar to GnomeSword with one very obvious exception-it is written for the K desktop environment.
It has one very fun feature that sets it apart. After searching for a word in the Bible you can press the “analyze” button and see a visualization of that word’s occurrence throughout the books of the Bible. Sweet.
