JS Bible

A jQuery Bible plugin for your website.

Multiple-requests-from-dozens-of-churches-over-the-past-few-years later, an easy-to-use Bible plugin has been developed—Now you can be like all the other cool church and ministry websites! Created by Jonathan Suh for you.

Getting started

This widget uses Logos Bible Software's Biblia.com Bible API service, which requires a unique API key for your website, to get the Bible text. You'll need to register for a free Logos account if you don't have one already. Because this plugin uses Biblia's API service, by using this plugin you are agreeing to Biblia API's Terms of Service.

  1. Sign in at api.biblia.com with your Logos account.
  2. Register a new application (in this case, your website).
  3. Keep record of your API key.
