<h1>Interlinear Bible Study</h1>
<p class="subtitle">Explore Scripture word-by-word in the original languages</p>

<div>
    <h2>What is Interlinear Study?</h2>
    <p>Interlinear Bible study allows you to examine Scripture in its original Hebrew (Old Testament) and Greek (New Testament) languages, word-by-word. Each word shows:</p>
    <ul>
        <li><strong>Original Text</strong> — The Hebrew or Greek word as written in ancient manuscripts</li>
        <li><strong>Transliteration</strong> — How the word is pronounced in English letters</li>
        <li><strong>Strong's Number</strong> — A reference number linking to detailed lexical information</li>
        <li><strong>English Translation</strong> — How the word was translated in the KJV</li>
        <li><strong>Parsing</strong> — Grammatical information (verb tense, noun case, etc.)</li>
        <li><strong>Definition</strong> — The word's meaning and usage</li>
    </ul>
</div>

<div>
    <h2>How to Use</h2>
    <p>Simply navigate to any verse page on this site. If interlinear data is available for that verse, you'll see a <strong>"Word-by-Word Analysis"</strong> section that you can expand to explore each word in detail.</p>
    <p>Click on any Strong's number to view comprehensive lexical information at BibleHub.</p>
