A Handy But Risky Dictionary For Your Bible
Media Freeware’s Free Bible Dictionary is a small dictionary app that lets you look up unfamiliar Bible terms you’ve come across and educates you on their meaning and how they were used in the passages of the book. It’s a specialized tool for understanding the lexical jargon of one of the most popular texts in human history.
Easier to Understand
The Bible is a collection of sacred texts or scriptures detailing the story of Christianity and its beliefs. As one of the largest religions in modern time, Bibles have become commonplace now and have had several different versions of it published throughout the centuries. The language used for it has evolved to make it easier for people of various generations to understand, but there still exists a large number of ancient terms that never got their own modern equivalents. That’s why Bible dictionaries were eventually created and compiled in order to help you figure out what the Bible is saying much better. There are various types of this, ranging from the traditional dictionary to e-books and audiobooks, and they will sometimes vary depending on the version of the Bible they were based on. This is why various versions of Bible dictionaries have been created, as well, since it would be a bit inconvenient to be using a dictionary that wasn’t meant to be used for the specific Bible version you own. It doesn’t matter if you’re religious and actively using your Bible or just something who needs to look into its passages—Bible dictionaries are very much a recommended accessory to your research and Media Freeware is happily offering one for free.
Functional Little Tool
Free Bible Dictionary by Media Freeware is just like most digital dictionaries and lets you search up terms throughout its database. It sorts all Bible words into different groups and categories to make it easier for you in your search. Its database of words is from three Bible versions: Hitchcock’s Bible, Easton’s Bible, and Smith’s Bible. Its interface is similar to an actual book and just like a dictionary, it lists the words in alphabetized form. You can also search specific general topics, too, such as “All the Men of the Bible” and “All the Women of the Bible.” You can even search up Bible themes and it will display various themes and topics, with accompanying Bible passages. However, despite its conveniently small size and great functionality, it might bring great risk to your computer. Free Bible Dictionary’s installer uses OutBrowse Download Manager to bundle additional adware during installation—including Conduit Search Protect, Yontoo PlurPush, SysTweak, and other toolbars and potentially-unwanted software utilities. While Free Bible Dictionary itself is not a threat, the others can be. This usually led to users removing this program although, apart from other problems they encountered with this digital dictionary.
Take Caution
As a dictionary app meant to help you understand old Bible terms, Media Freeware’s Free Bible Dictionary works well enough for something with only three Bible versions used for its compilation of terms. However, you best be careful while installing it, as it might expose your computer to harmful viruses with the various bundled programs it comes with.
