Hebrew and Greek

Marble.bible

Marble.bible offers both Greek and Hebrew resources. It is a website of the United Bible Society that uses the most recent complete scholarly Greek Text (UBS5/NA28) and Hebrew text (BHS) without the apparatuses. It is helpful for parsing Greek and Hebrew words as well as giving a definition and the usage of the root word in the Hebrew Old or Greek New Testament. The website uses the UBS semantic dictionary for both Hebrew and Greek, defining the semantic category for words as well as their different range of usages throughout the Bible.  The website also has images and UBS videos related to the text that have to do with geography and archeological history. 


Stepbible.com

Stepbible is a customizable resource with many New Testament Greek and a few Old Testament Hebrew sources, including the SBLGNT, a free Greek New Testament not used by most scholars, and the OHB, a free, pointed Hebrew Old Testament based on the Leningrad Codex just like BHS, which is the recognized, scholarly text.. It also has Ralph’s LXX and multiple Hebrew Old Testaments, along with a plethora of English translations. This website has many more sources to help with Biblical studies and is designed to be used with Strong’s Concordance. It has a more modern interface than Blue Letter Bible, but is capable of even more with more resources available on the site.
