Selah – cross-platform Bible study app

Selah is a Bible study application designed to provide a simple, distraction-free reading experience while offering more advanced study tools when needed.

The app uses the 1769 King James Version and supports offline reading. It includes verse-level rich text notes, word-level highlighting, Treasury of Scripture Knowledge cross references and Strong’s numbers with definitions and search facilities.

Search options include standard text searches, regular expressions and a nearby mode for finding words within a few verses of each other. Selah can also display multiple Bible views side-by-side or stacked.

Optional account-based synchronization keeps notes, highlights and other data synchronized across devices. Data can also be exported and imported.

This is free and open source software.
