Study the text, not the mystique.
Bible Original Languages is a free set of practical tools for reading Scripture more carefully in Biblical Hebrew and Koine Greek.
Why this exists
The goal is not to make original languages feel secret or inaccessible. It is to help a motivated beginner move from letters and sounds into real biblical text, then use that knowledge with honest exegesis, durable memorization, and trusted reference tools.
Every learning track is designed to shorten the distance between explanation and practice. The alphabet trainers build rapid recognition; the readers put that recognition inside Genesis and John; the study lessons show how language tools fit within context rather than replacing it. The project favors small repeatable drills, transparent sources, and claims that a student can check.
Sources and standards
The Hebrew reader uses the Westminster Leningrad Codex through Open Scriptures. The Greek reader uses the SBL Greek New Testament through MorphGNT, with Dodson lexicon data. English reference text is the public-domain King James Version. Full source credits and recommended tools are listed on the Resources page.
Who built it
The site is built and maintained by Aaron Acosta as an independent learning project. It is not a substitute for a critical edition, trained instructor, faith community, or careful consultation of multiple scholarly sources.
The software and generated pages are published in a public repository so corrections can be traced to specific source changes. The project does not claim institutional accreditation or denominational authority. Its standard is narrower and practical: cite the textual data, label interpretive judgment, avoid pretending that a mnemonic is etymology, and make the basic tools available without a paywall.
