Orientation: Getting Started with Your Platform
11. Using STEPBible.org Directly
Some units will simply ask you to go and work in STEPBible itself, rather than presenting a ready-made panel — this is deliberate, so that by the end of the programme you are genuinely competent with the tool itself, not merely able to read panels we have prepared for you.
To use it:
- Go to stepbible.org in a new tab. No account or sign-in is required.
- Type a reference (for example, “Luke 14:28” or “Genesis 1:1”) into the search box, or use the version selector to choose a Greek or Hebrew interlinear text.
- Select an interlinear view to see the original-language word beneath each English word.
- Hover over (on a computer) or tap (on a phone or tablet) any original-language word to reveal its Strong’s number, a short gloss, and morphological information such as tense and case.
- Click through on a Strong’s number to open the full lexicon entry — exactly like the cards you met in the last chapter.
STEPBible also lets you compare multiple English translations side by side, search for every occurrence of a Strong’s number across the whole Bible, and consult study notes — features you are welcome to explore, though they are not required for this programme.
