This app contains the books of the Abrahamic Faiths, the People of the Book. It has the Torah in Hebrew and English; the Bible in English and Chinese and the Quran in Arabic, English, Indonesian and Swahili.


People of the Book are adherents of the Abrahamic religions: Judaism, Christianity and Islam.

In Judaism the term "People of the Book" (Hebrew: עם הספר, Am HaSefer) was used to refer specifically to the Jewish people and the Torah, and to the Jewish people.

In Christianity, the Catholic Church rejects the similar expression "religion of the book" as a description of the Christian faith, preferring the term "religion of the Word of God", since the faith of Christ, according to Catholic teaching, is not found solely in the Christian Scriptures, but also in the Sacred Tradition and Magisterium of the Church.

In Islam, the Quran is taken to represent the completion of these scriptures, and to synthesize them as Gods true, final, and eternal message to humanity.
