How to use the App:
It would be beneficial at this point to look at how to use The Bible Scholar App. A good example to look at is Matthew Henry’s Bible Commentary.

A person simply taps on Matthew Henry on the iPhone screen and it opens up to a list of all the books of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation.

If he taps on Genesis for instance, the book will load to Matthew Henry’s commentary on the entire book of Genesis. He will get a verse-by-verse commentary by the author and get to know where the name Genesis originated. The same applies for every other book within this great book.

Another great aspect of this app is that the fonts are so readable; the reader does not need reading glasses.

One feature that proves to be quite useful is the bookmark feature. A person can bookmark sections in the books he is reading, so he never loses his place. Therefore, if he is interrupted, he can come back and return to what he was reading.

One of the wonderful features that any student of the Bible would appreciate is the notes feature. Here one can write pages of notes and thoughts on what he is studying. The user can even title his notes for easy reference. The user could do this on the entire books within the app, including the Updated King James Bible. A person can read a passage of scripture, write study notes, and save them for future reference.

The app is easy to load. This is very exciting to know because one does not have to wait for a long time to gain access. He simply taps on The Bible Scholar’s icon and is ready to begin enjoying the wealth of information within each page.

This is arguably the most comprehensive Bible related app on the iTunes App Store. Every Christian or student of history will find this app to be worth the investment.
