Regarding Accordance Bible Software. I have been disappointed with Accordance. First, I find it to be too expensive. The separate costs for many modules and the Atlas can make it a fairly expensive purchase. The installing and updating of the modules can be a bit cumbersome. The interface is too busy & overall seems bloated.
I much prefer MacSword & Bible Free Reader. They are two freeware King James Bibles that work just fine. MacSword is loaded with references that would cost an arm-and-leg with Accordance. Bible Free Reader is more basic, but has a fine verse citation feature for when you want to quote and cite bible verses (also, according to the auther of BFR, he is working on it again and will soon be updating it).
