Smith & Jones Bible
The Word Illuminated
Free · In-App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
The Smith and Jones Preacher's Bible, now digital. The pure King James text with room to write — type, highlight, or annotate in your own hand. Read, listen, search.
Smith & Jones Bible Publishers brings The Preacher's Bible to iPhone and iPad — the King James Bible designed for the pastor, teacher, and serious student of Scripture who does their own work in the Word.
This is not a study Bible cluttered with another man's commentary. It is the pure King James text, set in the classic Smith & Jones two-column page, with generous blank space in the center column for your own notes — the same layout preachers have loved in the physical edition for years, now in your pocket and always with you.
