Here's the short version. This course is Bible study at a newspaper desk. The translation is the King James Version — the same public-domain text you browse at /bible. When a lesson cites a verse, we put the KJV wording in the still. Then we talk about what it says.

How we will read
KJV on this desk. Same Bible as /bible. Quote the verse, then sit with it.
Study cites NKJV references. The desk Bible on the paper is KJV (public domain) for reading.
A reference looks like this: John 3:16. That means the Gospel of John, chapter 3, verse 16. Psalm 23:1 is the first verse of the twenty-third psalm. Open it in the desk Bible. Read what is on the page.
