Introducing The Bible Says!

Posted on February 3, 2026 Posted by Joshua Milligan

Blue Letter Bible is delighted to announce our partnership with The Bible Says, our newest content provider. The Bible Says is an ongoing, verse-by-verse commentary which will cover all of Scripture. Their aim is to explain deep scriptural truths in an easily understandable way for the average person while also serving as a key study resource for ministry leaders. Several writers have contributed to this resource, using purposeful hermeneutics that seek to rightly divide and interpret the Word of God. The following is a direct quote from their website’s About page:

“At The Bible Says, we focus on providing biblically grounded content that is both accessible and authentic. Our team is dedicated to careful study of each passage, drawing from history, language, culture, and theology to shed light on Scripture’s enduring relevance.”

We want to thank The Bible Says for partnering with us to provide their resources in English, Chinese, and Portuguese. It is such a joy to come alongside like-minded brethren who share our mission of providing scripturally sound and biblically faithful resources to better understand the Word of God. To start reading, head over to their author page on our website. You can also head over to The Bible Says website to learn more about the philosophy behind their commentary.
