The plates
See the scene at the exact verse.
There are 235 plates, and each one appears at the verse of the scene it depicts. You read Matthew 14 and see Peter sinking in the storm, right there, next to the text.
Illustrated Holy Bible
Siloé
The complete Bible, offline and ad-free, illustrated with 235 plates, each one at the exact verse of its scene.
Free to read · extra editions as a one-time purchase, no subscription · in 9 languages
Everything Siloé has.
The Bible to read, see, hear and study — from the first verse to the original Hebrew and Greek.
The note on each scene
Every image says what it is based on.
Every plate comes with a note on the basis of the drawing: the verse, the excavation, the ancient text. Where research does not support a detail, the note says so too.
The gallery
235 scenes and 116 covers, organized.
Browse the Bible through its images, book by book, and through the gallery of characters. Tap a scene and Siloé opens the passage.
The study Bible
The study of every chapter, ready.
Historical context, discussion questions, curiosities and links to other passages, chapter by chapter. And a guide for your group or small group, which you put together and take as a PDF.
Hebrew and Greek
The original, word by word.
As in an interlinear Bible: the reading and meaning of each word, the root, the morphology and the Strong's number. In the Researcher edition, the concordance shows every occurrence of each word, book by book.
The translation
The World English Bible, complete.
In English, the text is the World English Bible, a modern translation in the public domain. Each of the nine languages has its own free translation; in Portuguese, the Bíblia Livre, in its traditional and critical forms.
Listen to the Bible
Read aloud, even offline.
Siloé reads the chapter with your phone's voice and highlights the verse being read. It is synthetic narration, not a recorded narrator — and it works offline.
The Word of the day
One verse for each day, and where it was spoken.
The Word of the day comes with a note that tells who said it, where and when. Choose by theme — anxiety, fear, grief — and share it as a card.
Reading plans
Short plans to build the habit.
From «Start here» to the Bible in a year, with a daily reminder. The Gospel of John in 21 days, Psalms for hard days, a proverb a day.
On iPad
The same Bible, on a big screen.
On iPad, the plates get room to breathe and reading feels as comfortable as a book. Highlights, notes and collections in five colors, all kept on your device.
Four editions, one Bible.
The Free edition never expires. Illustrated, Complete and Researcher are one-time purchases, with no subscription: each includes everything the previous one has, and upgrading costs only the difference.
