Nostr Web Client

hey all #religious people on nostr (and/or religious scholars)

copyright/intellectual property laws are bad, but it's an especially wicked affront when they are applied to sacred texts 📖

luckily you can use free and open source reading apps and avoid copyrighted translations (like the NIV for example)

the app i use for the #bible, is Bible Study (AndBible on fdroid) alongside Bible Notify for daily quotes ✝️

my pick for the #quran is QuranApp (also from fdroid) which comes with daily quotes built-in! ☪️

I'll have to take a look at that, though I like using the GNV, 2018 Wycliffe, and YLT (I know YLT is public domain, though 1599 GNV by Toll Leige is copyrighted).

The AndBible is my goto app. I love the strongs number search option

There's a gentleman that did a public domain Catholic translation of scripture in 2009 (https://www.sacredbible.org/catholic/), we're using it for Saint Maker stuff. Religious orgs get so weird about copyrighting stuff that should be available to all.

I use Verbum which is based on Logos Bible Software but if you want a really cool website resource for the Bible I recommend CatenaBible it has the complete Bible (73 Books) and you can click on verses and it opens in the side tab ancient commentaries and cross-references from Saints throughout the history of the Church.
