The really cool thing about Pocket e-Sword is that you can have a complete seminary library with you wherever you go!

No Bible is included, so you will need to download and install at least one of those. You may also want to download additional resources for maximum potential and enjoyment here.

Features:

• The layout is pretty straight forward. Tabs give you quick access to the different resource types, and a combobox lets you choose the specific title you want. The Bible view has a Scripture reference button to allow you to quickly navigate to any location in the Bible.
• "Compare" just has to be a choice in the Bible resource combobox! Easily compare the various translations to see how they rendered the Greek or Hebrew manuscripts.
• The Commentary view is synchronized with the Bible view. You can also browse to any other reference within the active commentary.
• Searching in Pocket e-Sword is just as simple as searching in the PC version ... just smaller.
• The Daily Devotional, Scripture Memory and Bible Reading tools will encourage you, and help you read through the Scriptures. These holy habits are a must for every Christian, and Pocket e-Sword is here to assist you in these.
• Even VGA and landscape orientation is supported if your PDA is equipped to handle it!

General installation instructions:

• It is highly recommended that you perform a "soft reset" on your PDA prior to installing Pocket e-Sword. This way all of the required files can be copied and registered as needed.
• None of the files you download should go onto the device itself. All files download onto the desktop PC, then transferred onto the device using ActiveSync.
• Pocket e-Sword should be installed into main memory, but all of the Bibles and other resources may be installed onto a storage card.

I love using the desk top version of e-sword. However, I am unable to load the program in my IPAC 1910 even though I tried adjusting memory per instructions from Mr. Myers. Additional request for assistance on two other occations were ignored - no response, not even a "I'm sorry we can not do anything for you." I am disappointed.

This is an excellent program. I use it at church and use the daily reading to read through the Bible. I wish that I can access the commentary when using the daily reading function. Though this program hasn't been updated nearly a year, it is still a great program. I would like to see a Smartphone version in the future as it seems possible (albeit cumbersome) to have such a version. I may be getting a Smartphone for my wife soon.

Is This compatible w/ p990 of sony erickson?

***** [May 2, 2007] by Denise using ipaq 1945
I have been using this program for a couple of years now. I had it on my Dell Axim and when I got my ipaq it was the first thing I installed (also use the PC version). Great job and Thanks! May God bless you.

***** [Mar 26, 2007] by Philip using Pharos GPS 505
It doesn't get any better than this. This little app is so good, I don't see much need to use my Windows or Mac Bible software anymore... or carry a paper Bible either. It's like carrying an entire Bible library in my pocket... only easier to use!

**** [Mar 26, 2007] by Andrew using Ipaq rx1950
Pretty good. The only shame is that you have to buy a couple of the translation packs. I really wanted the NASB but can't justify the expense.

***** [Nov 6, 2006] by Alexxx using ipaq h1915
Works really cool in my old ipaq. Recommended. God bless you!!!

Hey DELL AXIM 50/51v users, get this amazingly, surprising FREE app !!!!!!!!!! Its working on the AXIM. This one is truly an act of GRACE :)

***** [Apr 21, 2006] by Edward using ipaq
Awesome program, the best around for years to come. Too bad there is no palm version. Have to carry 2 PDAs around now but it is worth it.

***** [Dec 19, 2005] by c4us using Ipaq 3115
Awesome application! Can't get better than this.

***** [Nov 30, 2005] by Semuel Toripalu using O2 XDA II
Very excelent program, friendly to use.Specialy coming with different language, realy good and useful for missions. Terima kasih. Tuhan memberkati..

***** [Nov 9, 2005] by Rey using iMate Jasjar
I was amazed that it really supports VGA devices like mine. Currently I'm using Good News Bible/Tagalog Ang Biblia. I am looking for an NIV version of the Bible but even if this version is not yet available I'm still very happy with e-Sword. Great job! God bless!

***** [Oct 28, 2005] by Anto using O2 mini
This is an excellent bible for my PPC, thanks to Rick Meyers. God bless U all.

***** [Sep 5, 2005] by Chia Ching Kai using O2 Mini
Having it in my O2 mini means I have ready access to not only the bible, but also the commentaries and bible dictionary - all of these without having to carry them all with me wherever I go. Bless the one(s) involved in this whole affair of making God's Word available in our own gadgets!

**** [Aug 10, 2005] by Utomo using Toshiba e400
This is good bible software for pocket PC. But I & many foreign have problems with local bible, where the book name still in english name, instead of in local name. Many people confuse with this. I hope they will update it, and it will become 5 star applications. God Bless You.

***** [Jun 6, 2005] by Jang using iPAQ
This is the best program I have ever met. This enabled my small gadget to function as a helper for my faith.

***** [May 20, 2005] by Rock Roberge using Dell Axim X50v
Simply incredible. I've chosen to (nearly) fill my 512mb SD card with Bibles, Commentaries, and Dictionaries (all free). This great app adds a whole new dimension to my Bible study. Thank you SO MUCH for writing, maintaining, and improving this great application... God bless you!

***** [May 4, 2005] by Loren Sanders using HP iPaq 3100
Just got my Pocket PC days ago, and having used the PC version of E-Sword for going on two years now, I made the ppc version of E-Sword my first add-on program. Rick Meyers ministry is an absolute blessing to so many people the world over; what he's done (and continues to) with E-Sword is a wondeful example of servanthood within the body of Christ. I pray that his ministry continues to grow, and that all who benefit from it, donate to it so it can continue to help serve and grow other brothers and sisters in Christ. Peace/Faith/Hope/Love. In Him always, in all ways, Loren Sanders. Milwaukee, WI.

This is really great... to Him be the Glory!

***** [Apr 13, 2005] by Louisa using O2 Mini Xda II
Its amazing, an unexpected blessing in the other side of the world where various bible references are difficult to obtain. This program gives me everything that I need and more to deepen my walk with God. God bless you bro!

***** [Mar 25, 2005] by Handoko using HP IPAQ 4150
Poket E-Sword is the "Good Bible" that I have been look than the other, GOD BLESS US Now and Forever!!!!

***** [Mar 9, 2005] by Richard Cooley using Compaq Ipaq Pocket PC
I have downloaded other bible softwares. But after finding this one, I erased all of them and downloaded this one. This, by far, is the best software out there. I am reccommending this to all of my church!!!!!! What a blessing it is to have people do this for all of us for free!!!!!!! May God shine upon you forever!!!

***** [Feb 21, 2005] by Pete Shaw using Dell Axim X50v
I have used the PC version for years, until this came out. Excellent!!! is my one word evaluation. Rick is a brilliant programmer, and has embarrassed many expensive Bible programs. Anyone who complains about it not having the (thought-for-thought, dynamic-equivalence) NIV needs to download the free ESV, and see what an accurate modern English translation looks like. After you use the ESV for a while you will forget the NIV. It is a cross between the NIV and the NASB; the readability of the former, with the accuracy of the latter. You get the best of both worlds. Go ESV! (BTW, I do not work for Crossway Publishers, or sell ESV Bibles.)

***** [Feb 16, 2005] by Frank Schipani using Pocket PC
This is an outstanding program. I can't believe all of the resources available. I use both the PC and Pocket PC versions and find them very easy to use. What a blessing this brother has been!

***** [Feb 4, 2005] by Roland using Toshiba Handheld PC E740
God bless you for all the trouble in making this Software and may the Lord Jesus reward the maker of this software Excellent tool for all Christians and Non Christians too

***** [Dec 20, 2004] by Lee Puay Eng using HP Ipaq 6364 Pocket PC
Don't know what else to say!! It's simply AWESOME !! Just DOWNLOAD it.

***** [Dec 17, 2004] by Mike using Dell Axim X3
Without doubt the best Bible software for Pocket PC or Desktop (e-sword.et) available. Having been a Bible student and computer bug for many years, I've tried a lot of them and eSword beats even the most expensive titles out there! Outstanding!

***** [Dec 17, 2004] by Meow Foong Yoong using O2XDA11s
Really excellent software. Works well on my XDA. Grateful that you have made it free. God Bless your ministry.

***** [Dec 8, 2004] by David using HP Ipac 4150
Wow! what a great piece of software! I am very very impressed! So much better than Palm OS bible softwares. God bless you for this excellent work.

***** [Dec 6, 2004] by Greg using Toshiba e750
Great stuff! I've been using it for almost a year now and I wouldn't go anywhere without it. Thanks!

***** [Oct 20, 2004] by Edward Kim using Toshiba Pocket PC
This invaluable Bible program has served me very well in my seminary education and youth pastor ministry.

***** [Sep 20, 2004] by Rev. Alton using Viewsonic V36
I have purchased many Bible softwares but this by far supercedes all of them. The resources and ability to change between screen makes this a walking resource center. Although I know it is a free software I can't see how I can not send you a donation with all the programs I've purchased that don't even come close to your program. Expecially thank you for all the personal emails you sent me until I finally got it right (I should have followed the training) Thank you once again for creating such a program! The check is in the mail.

***** [Sep 8, 2004] by Michael using HP iPAQ 4150
This software is fantastic to say the least. It's got all you need including the ability to search for words/phrases and bookmark facilities. You can install and switch from various versions of the translation - I find Standard English to be the best. It's excellent - download it.

***** [Aug 16, 2004] by Philip using Viewsonic
Like all your reviews, the Lord have certainly bless soooo... many.

***** [Jul 30, 2004] by Markel using Ipaq 1945
It's easier to sell a lie than to give the truth away. With that said, this is an incredible software package that's better than some of the commercial Bible products on the market. Blessings await you!

***** [Jun 14, 2004] by Darren using SX-56 Pocket PC Phone
I must say that I agree with the fellow reviewers. I almost had to move to Palm and begged Rick to port to Palm, though luckily I didn't have to. I love everything about this program. It is by far the best I have ever used. Would be nice if there was a port to palm though. Only negative, it would be nice if we could install the actual program to the external card.

***** [Jun 6, 2004] by Ernie Spillman using Ipaq 5555/5 Gig Toshiba PCCard HD/Dual PCCard Sleeve
Best PPC bible study program bar none. Better designed than either Olivetree's or Laridian's with free resources that the others charge big bucks for and others they don't have -- a "must have" bible study program for anyone serious about bible study on the PPC. The free ESV bible reads just as easy as the NIV does IMO.

**** [May 17, 2004] by jesaya using xdaII
It's a good stuff! Usefull and user friendly. I don't belive that it's free!

***** [Apr 16, 2004] by Daniel using Dell Axim X3i
Excellent free product! Also for those stating that the downside for this program is no NIV or whatever Bible translation that is not on here is due to copyrights. But Rick is continuously trying to get the ok's from the various Christian Bible companies. So please be patient. :)

***** [Apr 9, 2004] by James Woodall using Dell Axim 3x
I have the nasb and it is awesome. I can do anyting with it, view the greek, see the definition in the dictionary, and take notes too. It just what Jesus ordered.

***** [Mar 1, 2004] by Byron using ViewSonic V36
I have used PC E-sword for years. The Pocket version is an incredible resource to cary around with you. The Bibles are 3-7 MB. The Commentaries are 3-8 MB. There are dictionaries, devotionals, it has a search feature, compare, bookmarks, Greek, Strongs. With a 128MB SD card you can have 6 Bibles 3 dictionary's 2 commentaries, 3 devotionals...you get the idea. It works very well.

**** [Feb 27, 2004] by Ben Meadors using Dell Axim X5
I love that it has more free commentaries and dictionaries than olivetree, but wow. The program as well as the references take up alot off memory. It ha a good interface though. I like it. If you download it, get a Storage Card!

***** [Feb 25, 2004] by JR using IPAQ 2215
This is a fantastic piece of software. The software originally was written for the PC, but now has been ported to PPC. You're going to need some free space (or a SD card) because the bible/dictionary files are quite weighty--BUT IT IS WORTH IT!

***** [Feb 20, 2004] by Julian Wong using iPAQ 2210
Simply the best I ever tried. I owned Laridian PocketBible (with NIV/NASB) and OliveTree with chinese. e-Sword is by far the best in terms of User Interface, Speed, Stability. The only downside is no NIV.

***** [Feb 19, 2004] by Lowell using Dell Axim X3i
Amazing, amazing, software! Unbelievable that it's free. The desktop version is awesome, and the PPC version is very well done. Easy to navigate, very intuitive features!
