Morning Devotional Evening Reflection
A Different Kind of Bible
Context Built In
Key cultural and historical context is woven directly into the text — visually marked, so you always know what's Scripture and what's enrichment. Footnotes go deeper in five labeled categories: Text, Culture, Context, Life, and Difficult.
Multimedia
Audio Bible, podcasts, original songs, and spiritual practices. Experience the text in the way that resonates with you.
Freely accessible
The translation text is licensed CC BY-ND 4.0: read, share, quote, and use it — with attribution, unchanged. Free forever.
And we say where these texts have been misused, too.
Start Reading
We begin with Luke Chapter 1: the announcement of John the Baptist, the angel Gabriel visiting Mary, and two revolutionary songs that still echo today.
Get Involved
Aperto is an open project—and it grows through people who want to be part of it. Whether that's translation, audio production, feedback, or something else entirely: every form of involvement is welcome.
