Greek and Hebrew texts are also available for original language study. In addition several foreign languages are supported, including Dutch, French, German, Italian, Russian, Spanish, and others. See Appendix E at the back of the User's Manual for a detailed list of Bible texts and add-on modules currently available.
Complete search facilities include, word, phrase, multiple words, wild cards, and much more. Searches can use AND, OR, XOR, NOT, and proximity operators to select verses. The range for searches can be restricted. All verses are displayed in context rather than asking you to choose a verse from a list to display. Searches are very fast, taking only a second or two even on older Macs.
You can add notes to a verse using the built-in editor. Cross-references can be included in your notes for automatic recall. In addition to verse notes, topical material, pictures, and word studies can also be saved.
A special Copy Verses command is provided to copy Bible passages via the clipboard directly from the Online Bible to any currently running application. The format of the verses is controlled via preferences set by the user.

Great search capability, lots of keyboard shortcuts, multiple windowing configurations, easy look-up of Strongs' numbers, good cross-reference, multiple lexicon support.
Other features: personal notes, favorite verses and verse lists, easy way to make documents with hyper-links to scripture verses, easy text-to-speech. Another plus is good support.
If you have problems, read the Help tutorial, it is very well written.
The negatives: Setting font and font size for all the Bible versions is tedious and there is no high-lighting yet.

A friend in school had the Windows/Microslop version and I just couldn't seem to get the hang of it.
I've tried many, many other programs but ALWAYS keep coming back to OLB Along those lines, is it just me or was the learning curve on Accordance a little "steep"?
I find the search capabilities in OLB are AWESOME! whether searching by English words, Greek/Hebrew words, or even by Strong's numbers!
Adding my personal notes/studies/commentaries at each verse is a great advantage too!
OH yes, I need to praise the developer's response time as being TREMENDOUS too!!! (even if it was a LOOOONG wait for a native OSX version)
Personally, I'd like to see the interface in OLB updated to a more "Mac-like" presentation.

Hopefully soon many of the texts will also be updated. (typos, etc.) I know the Byzantine Greek text has been completely revised since the 2001 edition and needs to be replaced with the 2006+ edition. With new and updated texts, hopefully on the new CD's I'm sure the value will be much more than the cost.
I've found, however, in the long wait, that MacSword is so much more intuitive, flexible, and easy to use. (More OS X-like) The only thing really lacking in MacSword are the copyrighted texts.
