E-Sword Rocks!

E-Sword the newest version has just been released.  It’s got some nice new features.

Features

e-Sword is feature rich and user friendly. This combination is what I pursued, and as such there were decisions I had to make when implementing various features. If a feature became too complicated for anyone other than a software engineer to use, then I abandoned the design in favor of keeping things simple. The $500.00 software packages might be able to do more “things”, but does the average user know how to take advantage of them? No! Below you’ll find a list of features that you will discover makes the study of God’s Word both enjoyable and enriching.
