INTERLINEAR may be defined as written or printed in different languages or texts in alternate lines. The Interlinear Bible Search enables you to research the subtle nuances and layers of meaning within the original biblical languages. The search results display the text in English on one line and the original bible language on another line. The option to view the English text and biblical language text with the transliterated word and the phonetic spelling on the same line is available by selecting the Side-by-Side link in the search results.

Find Strong's numbers easily and quickly by setting the translation to either KJV with Strong's Numbers OR NAS with Strong's Numbers. In the search results, select an underlined word to display the Strong's number, the word origin, transliterated word, phonetic spelling, parts of speech, and the definition. The KJV with Strong's Numbers translation also includes the "Stem and Mood" verb pattern for Hebrew words and the "Tense, Voice, and Mood" for Greek verbs. In the search results, select the Strong's number displayed immediately after a verb.

Find exact chapters and/or verses by typing the book, chapter, and/or verse in the box and selecting the Bible version desired from the drop-down box.
