Customer Reviews
The Ultimate Book to read on your iPhone!
I can not think of a better book to have on my iPhone for those times that I am forced to wait without access to a magazine or newspaper. To read the Tanach on your iPhone in English and in Hebrew is the best book anyone could have. I can now read and study Torah, the Nevi'im, and the Ketubim at any time! And the app has the capability of bookmarking verses and searching for words in English or in Hebrew. I have already bookmarked all the footnotes I have written in the margins of my Tanach. Now, not only can I read and study independently, if I ever am in a discussion of Torah with someone, I have the entire Tanach and commentary in my pocket. I can now pull out my phone and use my bookmarks to bring up relevant passages and search for words in English or in Hebrew. No longer will my personal conversations on scripture be based on: "Trust me: I have read it in the original Hebrew". Now, I can pull out my phone and show anyone who questions scripture the English translation and translate the Hebrew for them.
Any time I have a question away from home, I do not have to wait to go home and get my Tanach to find out. I can simply pull out my phone and find the chapter and verse in English and Hebrew for myself or others.
I can not think of a more important book to have on my phone but the Torah, Nevi'im and Ketubim.
The only problem is that I do not have a Hebrew dictionary if I find a verse I can not translate. But, perhaps there is an app for that too.
Good but not perfect
For the most part this is a pretty good app. The user interface (getting from one Sefer to another) could be more user friendly - there are too many hierarchical menus to go back and forward with. How about making the options of Sefer, Perek etc. selectable by "rolling" up and down like when choosing a date and time for an entry in iPhone / iPad Calendar? Also, just because I choose to see text in "Parshiot" view instead of "Chapter" view, why should I not be able to see the number of the Perek I'm in, in addition to the Pasuk?
Excelent
It is an amazing app! I started teaching my younger brother Tanach before I found this app. I found this app, installed it, and now I am learning very well
