Concordance Tool

Instantly study all the words or types of words in a passage with the Concordance Tool. With it, you can easily build a browsable list of places where those words appear in your library, so you can accurately assess major themes in a passage, group of passages, or book of the Bible.

You can explore by translation or lemma morphology, and narrow down the list with language and search fields.
