It's nice to have the world at your fingertips, but it is the world. I like using Christian resources for study but don't find them entirely reliable. I have a John McArthur study bible as an ebook, but don't find it particularly helpful for a word search to identify 500 or more listings including partial words and commentary. I can find things quicker with my old hardcover edition of Strong's concordance. You'd think at least 1 or 2 filters would've been included in the code.
I've used the bible gateway web site for a quick search but have encountered similar problems and at times no search results for a word for word entry in the search field. I was so annoyed once that I opened a bible (ebook) copy and pasted a whole verse, edited out any extraneous characters for footnotes or formatting, selected the correct version of bible, and still had 0 results. It seems that they don't like verses about sin or judgment, but maybe I'm reading into what just amounts to poor web design.
I found a software package for bible study that was inexpensive, easy to use, and had a huge database of Bibles that included all the versions that I've owned and read, and then some. It worked on my Windows 98 machine and on my XP computer, but I had to upgrade for Windows 7. Unfortunately, something on the Windows 7 machine keeps changing the visible attribute for the software windows , just with that bible library software, so that I had to reinstall it periodically in order to see anything when it opened. Then I lost the CD.
None of my old software runs in my latest laptop, and none of the bible software that runs on the Windows 10 platform could be called cheap. Does Bill Gates have a problem with bible study? Currently I have a kindle app on my laptop so I can open various ebook versions that I purchased and search them, do copy and paste, but the limitations of the ebooks remain (such as the tremendous search results with the McArthur study bible). It's a bit frustrating and I've worked with tech for over 40 years.
Ever get the feeling that someone was trying to keep you in the dark?
