Hi - does anyone know a good website that would be a good reference to books in the bible. For instance, if I was reading 1 Kings and wanted an explaniation of what was happening and why, is there a site that I could go to to get this information? Thank you.
The following may be helpful for seminary students, religious professor- teachers, any Catholic students taking religious education classes, and also may be of use in helping priests prepare sermons for Gospels readings of the day using Catholic commentaries, and church Fathers quotes, religious Education Directors and CCD Teachers, and of course it may be useful for any Catholic in learning more about their faith, Scripture etc… Please be sure to pass this along.

What we have here at this web site a synopsis:
These are all eSword modules-Bibles, Commentaries, Dictionaries, and Topical all for the eSword base Bible software program… All to help Catholics and those interested in knowing more or understanding what the Catholic Church truly teaches and why. All modules are free as well as the Base esword program for download. The Base progam is a free download at:

e-Sword is a fast and effective way to study the Bible.
e-Sword is feature rich and user friendly with more capabilities than you would expect in a free software package. The fact that e-Sword is free is just one of the blessings and does not speak of the quality of the software. I make my living writing software and I believe I have put forth my best effort in this endeavor. The real work, however, was put in by the godly men and women who devoted countless years creating the texts that have been made available for our benefit. (From the e-sword Web site Rick Myers)
The Program has the ability to accept user created modules hence a substantial number of user Catholic modules including the
Early Teachings of the Church in the first few centuries (
a must read),** Haydock Commentary, St Thomas works** in the Catena commentary on Gospels by early church fathers, and his Summa Theologica, a number of Catholic Bibles, Catechism, 1909
Catholic encyclopedia another must, a
Catholic Doctrinal Concordance, and a number of special tools for studying the Bible With
Greek and Latin tools for studying the basic Greek Grammer and Latin language to enhance one’s understanding of definitions etc. This has become a consolidation of free modules for e-Sword base progam, modules scattered across ensips web, and a few other websites on the internet all to make for easier download and finding of Catholic modules and good study tools.

Hoping to add some good Catholic commentary and dictionaries which would be great editions at a $ Cost.
