Rick Myers e-sword site states: 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, The Great Cornelius **Lapide **commentary, A
Catholic Commentary on Holy Scripture, **St Thomas works **in the Catena commentary on Gospels by early church fathers, and his Summa Theologica, The Douay Rheims Catholic Bible plus two other Bible resources, Catechism, 1909 Catholic encyclopedia another must, The
1910 Catholic Dictionary, a
Catholic Doctrinal Concordance, How Protestants Study the Bible versus how Catholics study the Bible, and a number of special tools for studying the Bible With
Greek and Latin tools for studying the basic Greek Grammer 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.

We need to put word out to our churches, Bible study coordinators, Religious Educators, students, seminarians, for priests material
here to help with sermons. etc–of what is available here at their fingertips. Those who are studying and making use of this need to consider now or down line for getting involved in Catholic Religious Ed. This is a work in progress so come on back and see whats new.

"This is dedicated to all the cradle Catholics, like myself, who one day woke up and realized they didn’t know anything about Catholicism. "
Hoping to add some good recent Catholic commentary which would be great editions at a $ Cost.
