An Online Bible Commentary
You Can Understand.

Welcome to BibleRef.com, the free online Bible study site. Our goal is to provide easy-to-understand discussion of the Scriptures, without relying on jargon or slogans. Here, you can find book-by-book, chapter-by-chapter, and verse-by-verse commentary on the entire Bible (eventually). At the same time, you’ll find links to related passages and biblical themes. These connections will help to show how the Scriptures fit together. BibleRef.com is guided by three major principles: Biblical Authority, Accessibility, and Discipleship. In short, we believe that the Bible is the most critical resource in the life of a Christian. We believe that each person has the ability, and responsibility, to understand the Scriptures. And, we believe in promoting a whole-person commitment to Christianity, including thoughts, deeds, and actions. New content is constantly under development, so feel free to subscribe for updates. Have a look around, and thanks again for visiting BibleRef.com!
