BibleWorks 7: What is Bible Works? / Video Demo / New in Version 7 / Modules
Here's a survey of the new features and databases in BibleWorks 7.
New User
Interface
The new BibleWorks interface is more intuitive and easier to use.
The BibleWorks user interface has been redesigned to work the way you work. When you are researching a particular topic you normally progress from searching, to browsing, and, finally, to analysis of particular words. The new interface is laid out in this order so that your work flow is more natural and intuitive.
Study Guides
Learn by example. Use the full power of BibleWorks.
New and experienced users will both appreciate the extensive set of task-oriented study guides that come with BibleWorks 7. Detailed instructions, complete with 4 hours of videos, will explain how to use BibleWorks to perform common tasks, like writing exegetical papers, searching Hebrew and Greek text and much more.
Key Word in
Context (KWIC) / Collocation Table Module
Find recurring word usage patterns.
This new tool makes it easy to build key word in context lexicons and collocation tables for any word in any version. You will quickly uncover important phrases and word usage patterns often overlooked in standard searches.
Support for
Unicode Hebrew & Greek
Export Greek and Hebrew text in the formats you need.
BibleWorks now supports both Unicode and non-Unicode Greek and Hebrew.
Exporting Unicode is as simple as dragging highlighted text from
BibleWorks to your word processor. Standard SBL and SIL Unicode Greek
and Hebrew fonts are also included in the package.
Completely
Rewritten Editor
Word and WordPad compatible.
In response to requests from many users, we have completely rewritten
the BibleWorks editor from the ground up. It now has full support for
Unicode and produces files that are fully compatible with Microsoft®
Word and WordPad.
The new editor has an impressive list of features including full undo
and redo, hypertext links, graphics inserts, RTL typing in Hebrew with
left-wrapped text (Unicode only), a full array of text formatting
options, a Unicode character input table, plus full integration with
BibleWorks, and much more.
Satellite Maps
Locate any Biblical site with the click of a mouse.
BibleWorks comes with a set of beautiful satellite maps that you have to see to believe! The collection includes a full set of editable site and terrain overlays for major locations in Israel and Egypt, along with detailed overhead and elevation data and a comprehensive list of archaeological sites. You can even create your own map views, select sites to display, annotate key locations and trace journeys or battle lines.
Improved
Lexicon Links
Find the right lexical entry every time.
The tables that BibleWorks uses to bring up the right lexical entry when
you place the mouse cursor over a Hebrew word have been carefully
proofed and revised. This extensive revision resulted in nearly 50,000
corrections! All lexicons now have hypertext links for Scripture
references and are also indexed so you can find all citations of a
particular verse with the click of a mouse.
Shorter
Lexicon of the Greek New Testament, 2nd Edition
Edited by F. Wilbur Gingrich & Frederick William Danker
This one-volume digest provides easy access to reliable and brief
definitions, interpretations of most variants and many of the
conjugational and declensional forms that can frustrate readers of the
New Testament. Gingrich and Danker’s revision was created not only for
experienced ministers and scholars, but also for students.
Textual
Commentary on the Greek New Testament, Second Edition
Bruce M. Metzger
In his commentary, Metzger explains why one alternate reading was chosen
over others when translators for the United Bible Society prepared the
Greek New Testament, Fourth Edition. Not only does his analysis provide
a look at different interpretations, but it also helps illuminate the
process and challenges of textual criticism.
Greek New
Testament Diagrams
Randy Leedy
This original work by Randy Leedy of Bob
Jones University provides diagrams and explanatory notes for every verse
in the New Testament. Includes free updates as new portions of the
series are published.
Exclusive to BibleWorks7
A
Greek-English Lexicon of the Septuagint, Volumes 1 & 2
J. Lust, E. Eynikel & K. Hauspie with the collaboration of G.
Chamberlain
The first lexicon concentrating entirely on the Septuagint, this work
occupies a pivotal place in modern exegetical study. Entries contain

The CATSS/Tov
Hebrew-Greek Parallel Alignment Module
The Revised CATSS Hebrew/Greek Text (Tov-Polak, 2005) is a revision of
the Parallel Aligned Text of the Greek and Hebrew Bible, edited by
Emanuel Tov. The Hebrew text has been collated with the BHS
text/morphology in BibleWorks and includes an updated version of the
textual notes in the original alignment. This is an essential tool both
for New and Old Testament studies.
A Concise
Hebrew and Aramaic Lexicon of the Old Testament:
Based on the Lexical Work of Ludwig Koehler and Walter Baumgartner
W.L. Holladay, editor
By eliminating biographical references and specialized technical
information, Holladay created an English, abridged version of Koehler
and Baumgartner’s Lexicon in Veteris Testamenti Libros that all students
need to translate Old Testament passages. Some reviewers have called
this the best Hebrew reference tool available.
Holman
Christian Standard Bible
Introduced in April 2004, the Holman Christian Standard Bible was
created to provide a fresh rendering of God’s Word directly from the
original languages. An emphasis was placed on combining an accurate
translation with contemporary use of the English language and a clear,
reader-friendly style.

An innovative translation by evangelicals who sought to represent
the meaning of Biblical texts as accurately as possible, the NET Bible
features about 60,000 notes on textual criticism, lexical issues and
exegesis.
