The beta is live — free, runs on your own computer, no account, no tracking.

Download the ready-made Ethiopian Tewahedo Study Bible below, or the desktop app to build your own editions. This is an early release, refined with every version — your feedback shapes what comes next.

Read the Bible — Choose Your Edition

The full Ethiopian Tewahedo Study Bible leads — the 83-book canon with the complete study apparatus (over 91,000 notes: cross-references, manuscript witnesses, commentary, word studies, topical indexes and more) and original-language popups (Hebrew, Greek, Latin, Arabic). Beside it stand eight more ready-made study editions — Catholic, Reformed, Jewish, academic, Eastern Orthodox, Anglican, Lutheran, and Coptic — each wearing its own cover from the program's twenty-five designs. One file each, free to read, copy, and share. No app required — every edition opens in any e-reader.

Pick your edition, then the device you read on.

On a Kobo, sideload the .kepub.epub — it turns on the tap-to-read footnote popups. On Apple Books and most other readers, use the plain .epub.

Verify any download against the release's SHA256SUMS.txt.

Verify your download

Every release is published with a SHA-256 checksum for each file, in a SHA256SUMS.txt posted alongside the downloads. Comparing the checksum confirms your copy downloaded completely and wasn’t altered in transit — it matches the file posted here. (It proves integrity, not authorship; that is what code-signing adds.)

How to check

The published SHA256SUMS.txt for v0.1.0 is posted with the release — download it here.

Prefer to run from source?

The code is source-available — you may read it and run it yourself. With Python 3.14+ installed, clone the repository and launch the program directly, with no installer at all. The exact clone command and run instructions live with the source.

Source-available means the code is open to read and run; it is not released under an open-source license (it remains © 2026 Bogdan Zorlescu, all rights reserved).
