Synonym search is a great way to bridge the gap between Greek, Hebrew and English words. It performs a deep search of every definition and translated word and presents it in a clickable list of words.
When a result is clicked, InHisVerse's definition panel and full concordance are displayed so you can easily explore how the word was used.
In this case, I wanted to see all the Greek and Hebrew words that mean 'grace'. The Hebrew word 'chen' is translated 'favor' many times ('if I have found favor in your eyes').
You don't need to be an expert to find Greek words that are similar to each other.
That's because many Greek words contain a 'root' word used to build up nouns, verbs, male and female variants. Highlight any part of the Greek word in the Greek Inspector and discover its related words.
Here's an interesting example:
- Charis is the word translated 'grace' in English.
- Do a Bible Search for the word 'grace.'
- In Luke 2:40, Highlight 'Grace' (Charis) in the Examiner.
- Press the Greek Inspector button in Definitions panel.
- You'll notice all the letters in Charis are highlighted.
- You should see 6 closely related words.
- Now, Highlight only 'Char' and look at the results!
- Grace is related to cheerfulness; it's a favor granted and is at the root of the Holy Spirit's gifts.
In addition to listing articles by subject, Extras takes things to a deeper level, indexing every article to it's referring verse.
Verse references gives you an insight into what scholarly experts thought the verse was about and presents chain references based on topic rather than original Greek / Hebrew word.
Press the 'topics' button to look up the current verse in 9 different encyclopedias, dictionaries and topical Bibles.
Here's an example when 'peace' is chosen from the International Standard Bible Encyclopedia.
The article is displayed with scripture references highlighted and listed in the cross-reference panel.
BibleHub.Com is integrated. Just press the Bible Hub icon to view the verse in over 25 translation and read additional commentaries and topical blibles.
In addition to the Berean Study Bible, IHV Extras also includes the King James Version Lexicon.
Every Greek and Hebrew word is outlined alongside its Strong's definition.
