Description
I saw that there is no Orthodox Bible on Android, so I decided to start to build one.
Do not confound Orthodoxy with Coptics. This is a genuine Greek Orthodox Bible translated into English by authorized people.
The text of this Bible is a translation from Septuagint. It is the same text used by the American Orthodox Church and most Bible Studies.
For more study, take a look at Codex Sinaiticus.

------------------
The EOB is a complete Orthodox translation of The Holy Bible. Unlike other versions, the EOB provides over 200 pages of introductory material and appendices, including articles by the late Rev. Protopresbyter George Florovsky and Pr. Miltiades Konstantinou of the Aristotle University of Thessalonica. The main purpose of the EOB is to provide an accurate and easy-to-read English text of the Holy Scriptures that is suitable for use by Orthodox Christian communities and individuals, while providing an outstanding text for scholars.
The Old Testament (in progress) is based on the Greek text of the Old Testament (Septuagint / LXX) with all major Masoretic and Dead Sea Scroll variants documented in the footnotes. For reasons documented in the comprehensive introductory section, the EOB also provides the Hebrew / Masoretic versions (WEB) of Job, Jeremiah and Esther.
The New Testament (completed and available) is based on the official ecclesiastical text published in 1904 by the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople (again documenting all significant variants to the Critical Text, Majority Text and Textus Receptus). It also provides extensive footnotes and Appendices dealing with significant verses such as Matthew 16:18; John 1:1,18; John 15:26. The Patriarchal text was selected on Mount Athos from among a large number of reliable ecclesiastical manuscripts and appears to be identical or similar to Minuscule 1495 (KR subgroup).

5 ★ Very good so far. If this is what I am hoping for, I will delete my other Bible apps. I would vastly prefer the Scripture from an Orthodox perspective. I only hope that eventually it will be easier to navigate through various books ad chapters.
4 ★ It very important app to have complete orthodox bible in English, supporting bible readers with high accurate translations and keeping originals.
4 ★ Powerful Bible more especially for the fact that it has direct words which are being translated in other Bibles. Its good for references. The only thing im nit happy witb is the picture on the cover. So I pay very little attention to it
4 ★ Needs to be a bit easier to get around but other than that its great.
5 ★ Great app.My only problem is the lack of the Prayer of Manasseh.
5 ★ Great app for Orthodox Bible. There is a small glitch, though. When I rotate phone or tablet (it glitches the same way in both), app defaults to 1st chapter of whichever book I'm reading. Also banner at the top will show the chapter I was previously on, even though the heading at the top of the page says Chapter 1.
2 ★ Why is there text overlaying the top of the scripture saying "please support the app" surrounded by a white border it is really distracting and I can't make it go away just stays there overlaying the scripture on every page
4 ★ Easy! Thank you for making my favourite version of the Bible available to carry on my phone and devices. Prayers!
5 ★ I'm so happy to find an actual Bible without human interpretation on it and thank you. It will be nice, if you can add the cannonical Holly books.
5 ★ I've only used the app a few times, but so far it has been great. I love having the Scriptures at my fingertips, and for free! thank you! My only complaint is the ads distracting from the script, but I understand that that's part of the price so I can put up with it.
3 ★ Good but need to work on the constant crashes
5 ★ I am glad to have found the orthodox bible in English! After searching for so long.
4 ★ Very nice bible, I am very satisfied, but the only thing is I don't find is how to share the verse or a book
5 ★ This is amazing! I love it soo much! I would recomend it for people!
4 ★ It is useful, but it could use a good tool to search by word or topic. I appreciate having an Orthodox Bible app to compare to other versions. Thank you, and may Our Lord Jesus bless you.
