e sword Bible software
e sword is an excellent electronic Bible software program. It comes with a number of resources and others can be added in. It has many features for searching and providing cross references. It also includes reference, commentary and graphical modules. Even though this program is provided free, please donate in order to help fund the costs associated with providing the website. More modules are available at Bible Support
While it has some free Bible translations included, I would highly recommend getting the LSB Bible Study Set with Strong's Numbers to be able to search the original language words from a modern translation rather than only from the King 
James Version.
This is what e-sword looks like. In this case I have used the NASB Bible. You can see that in the other 2 windows, every resource that has a blue and white information symbol has information on that verse or word. Here you can see in the bottom window the definition for the word "day" and in the right window, cross references for the verse.
Some E Sword modules that I have prepared
- Charts and Maps
- New Testament Background

Martin Luther said in "Table Talk" (Of God's Word XXXII) "When I was young, I read the Bible over and over and over again, and was so perfectly acquainted with it, that I could, in an instant, have pointed to any verse that might have been mentioned. I then read the commentators, but I soon threw them aside, for I found therein many things my conscience could not approve, as being contrary to the sacred text. ‘Tis always better to see with one’s own eyes than with those of other people." and in "of God's Word III, he said "He who has made himself master of the principles and text of the word runs little risk of committing errors."
On the Instruction Videos Page there are a number of links for videos that have instructions on using E sword, Accordance and Logos.
