So you've got your scripture verse before you.
You've already done these 4 simple bible study methods I've described in detail in the previous lesson.
But you want to dig even deeper in the Word.
So what should you do next?
I'll show you two free resources you can use to go deeper. They are found on Bible Study Tools.com
I'll share a step by step in depth bible study guide for using these resources to really unearth some biblical truths.
Bible Study Tools.com is a free online bible study tool with a long list of free resources to study the bible. I love it because it is not difficult to use. Yet, there is enough tools that would have you study the bible for hours.
In the overview below you'll learn ...
Let's dive in!
For this simple bible study method we're going to:
The original language of the bible - which was for the most part Hebrew ( Old Testament) , Greek ( New Testament), and in some areas Aramaic - was taken and translated into English, to make it readable to the masses!
The problem with bible translations is that many times, the context or message captured in the original tongue can become diluted, misinterpreted, or lost all together through translation. ( Read More About Translations here).
That's why the Interlinear Bible is perfect for digging deeper in bible study.
The beauty of the interlinear bible is that we can find the full meaning and deepen our understanding of words found in bible passages by going back to the original word.

The Bible Dictionaries are found under “Study” in the navigation bar at the top of Bible Study Tool.com. They are no ordinary dictionaries! Bible Dictionaries like Easton, Smith’s and Baker’s are quite famous for providing quality, in depth explanation on places, objects, plans, cultural and ceremonial customs - backed and stacked with scriptural references.
Like an ordinary dictionary, you can search for your own word and the dictionary will pull up the information.
