How It Was Built

How This Study Was Built

Scripture Unlocked was built from the ground up to teach God's Word verse by verse, chapter by chapter — the way it was meant to be studied.

bookThe Foundation — God's Word

Every verse comes from the King James Version of the Holy Bible. We use the KJV because it was translated from the Textus Receptus and Masoretic texts — the manuscripts closest to the original Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek. The KJV text is never paraphrased, never altered, and never replaced.

library_booksThe Study Tools

Our commentary draws from the same tools serious Bible students have trusted for generations:

Strong's Exhaustive Concordance(Abingdon Press edition)

For the original Hebrew and Greek word meanings behind every English word.

The Companion Bible(E.W. Bullinger)

For the structure, figures of speech, and manuscript notes that most study Bibles leave out.

Smith's Bible Dictionary

For historical and archaeological context.

Webster's 1828 Dictionary

For what English words meant when the KJV was the standard.

schoolThe Teaching Method

We study the Bible the way Scripture itself instructs us to: “Study to shew thyself approved unto God… rightly dividing the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15) — chapter by chapter, verse by verse, never skipping a word and never cherry-picking a verse out of context.

This is the method taught for decades by the late Pastor Arnold Murray of Shepherd's Chapel in Gravette, Arkansas — one of the teachers whose work inspired a generation of students to open God's Word for themselves. He was not the only one who taught this way, and he would be the first to say the method belongs to Scripture, not to any one teacher.

verifiedOur Promise

We will never teach you what to think. We will teach you how to study. Open your Bible. Check every word against the King James text. Use the Strong's numbers to see what the original language says. If anything in this app contradicts God's Word — trust God's Word.

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” — 2 Timothy 2:15
