The Yiddish Bible application is designed for reading/studying the Yiddish Bible in either Yiddish or in a parallel format combining Yiddish and another language (at present, either English, Hebrew, or YIVO transcription). It is also useful as a tool for improving one's knowledge of Yiddish. It is comprised of the following components:1. Bible: The Yiddish Bible is accessible in several different versions (Yiddish, Yiddish/English, Yiddish/Hebrew, and Yiddish/YIVO-transcription) and it is easy to switch between versions by pressing a button while viewing the Bible text. All versions are resident on the device and no Internet access is required to view the texts. In additon to a "Book"-based reading approach, it is possible to also toggle to a "Parashah"-based approach (a Parashah is the weekly synagogue Torah/Haftarah reading).2. Words: This is useful for learning more about specific Yiddish words and for discovering related words. The words tab provides 2-letter dictionary lookup, search, translate, and Harkavy dictionary functionality.3. Topics: There are links to key topics (over 200 people/places/things) in the Wikipedia online encyclopedia. One can access topics by Book/Meta/Alphabetical Topic.4. Maps: There are maps of almost every location (over 1,000 locations) mentioned in the Yiddish Bible By selecting a location on the map and touching the "callout detail disclosure" symbol (the "right arrow"), one can see a listing of all verses in the Yiddish Bible that mention that location.The Application Web Site has more details on functionality.
