REV Bible App
The REV translation project began by using the American Standard Version (ASV) of 1901 as a base text. Work began on this translation in the year 2000, and the first edition was released and printed in 2013. It is titled the Revised English Version because it is a translation of the ancient texts into English, and yet while it has much in common with other modern English versions, it also has significant differences.
We also have included helpful tutorial videos to help you understand all the features of the REV Bible app.

The REV is designed to be a more literal translation whenever the literal rendering can be accurately reflected and understood in modern English vernacular. However, there are times when the REV has departed from a strict literal translation in order to make good sense in English. Strictly literal translations can be more difficult than helpful at times as the mechanics of Greek and Hebrew differ dramatically from English. In addition to grammatical and syntactical differences, idiomatic expressions are rarely cross-lingual as well. In any translation, the objective is to communicate the meaning of the original language in the receptor language. Therefore, if a literal translation obstructs this goal, a more functionally equivalent expression is employed in the Revised English Version.
We hope and pray that the REV Bible app will further your relationship with God and the Lord Jesus Christ. For more info, visit STFonline.org/rev

Most Accurate Bible Translation and All-Around Very Easy to Use.
Thank you, if there was a physical version (of both the OT and NT) I'd happily buy that. This is great, though. Same reading options on the website.
Fantastic app and translation! It's much easier to access study guide notes, cross references etc than any of the other Bible apps I use.
Incredible the amount of work this had to take. The writer clearly knows not only the Greek and Hebrew languages but also the cultures and customs. He uses his knowledge to give you an explanation of the background behind the verses, explains why he chose the translation he did, and provides how other bibles translate it. Truly an amazing piece of work
A fantastic translation that makes more than a few unique choices, and they're all for the better.
Well researched and easy to follow newer NT Bible translation. Useful commentary and translation explanations given for each Bible verse.

My go to Bible app. Very accurate and readable rendering of the original Hebrew and Greek texts. Commentaries for verses are exceptional and easy to access without losing the spot where you are reading. Multiple appendix that cover a variety of topics. If you want to understand the Bible, this is the app for you.
