What this server can do

11 functions, named and described by the server itself. Parameter names are shown because they say more about what a function does than its name usually does.

compare_passage(versions, reference)
Compares the same Bible passage across multiple Bible versions and returns a Markdown side-by-side style comparison. Use this for translation comparison, sermon preparation, or study questions. For a single version, use get_passage. Required: reference.
get_chapter(book, chapter, version)
Fetches a full Bible chapter from a specific version, formatted in Markdown with numbered verses. Use this when the user needs chapter-level context instead of an isolated verse. Required: version, book, chapter.
get_commentary(language, reference)
Fetches the Midvash commentary for the chapter a reference points to — what the chapter is about, its context and its main movements. Every one of the 1,189 Bible chapters has one, in 9 languages. Use this for "what is this chapter about" questions. For the text itself, use get_passage. Returns a summary with a link to the full commentary. Required: reference.
get_cross_references(limit, version, reference, include_text)
Finds other Bible passages that relate to a given verse, ranked by how widely the link is attested. This answers "what else in Scripture speaks to this?" — the standard next step in study after reading a verse. Returns each related passage with its text, so no follow-up lookup is needed. Required: reference.
get_passage(version, reference)
Fetches Bible passages from natural-language references such as "John 3:16-18", "Psalm 23", "Romans 8:1-9:5" (crossing chapters) or "John 3:16; Romans 8:1" (several at once). This is the primary lookup tool when the user gives a citation instead of structured book/chapter/verse fields. Required: reference.
get_strongs(word, limit, number, language, translation_language)
Looks up a word in Strong's lexicon — 8,674 Hebrew and 5,523 Greek entries — by Strong's number ("H430", "G2316") or by the word itself, in the original script or transliterated ("elohim", "θεός"). Returns the lemma, transliteration, definition and senses, translated into the requested language. Use it when the question is what an original-language word means.
get_verse(book, verse, chapter, version, verse_end)
Fetches one exact Bible verse or a contiguous verse range from a specific version. Use this when the book, chapter, verse, and version are already known. For natural references such as "John 3:16-18", prefer get_passage. Required: version, book, chapter, verse.
list_books(language, testament)
Lists the 66 canonical Bible books with localized names, slugs, abbreviations, testament grouping, and chapter counts. Use this when an agent needs valid book identifiers or localized display names before calling lookup tools.
list_versions(language)
Lists Bible versions available to the current MCP connection, automatically respecting URL filters such as ?v=nvi,kjv and ?lang=pt-br,en. Use this before lookup, search, or comparison when the user has not specified a version.
search_bible(book, limit, query, version, testament)
Searches the Bible text for words or an exact phrase and returns matching verses ranked by relevance. Matching ignores letter case and accents; wrap the query in double quotes for an exact phrase. Use this for discovery questions like "find verses about love". For a known citation, use get_passage or get_verse. Required: query.
search_study(type, limit, query, language)
Searches Midvash's Bible study library: chapter commentaries, Bible characters, dictionary entries, and theology articles, in 9 languages. Use this for background and explanation — who a person was, what a term means, what a chapter is about. For the biblical text itself, use search_bible or get_passage. Results are summaries with a link to the full article. Required: query.

Signals

These are separate measurements of different things. They are deliberately not combined into one score, because a popularity number that mixes website traffic with saves and stars cannot be checked or acted on.

Signal Value What it measures Window Observed Source
GitHub stars 0 Number of GitHub accounts that bookmarked this repository since it was created. It is a bookmark count, not installs, not active users and not quality. cumulative, all time GitHub

These share tags the maintainers applied themselves, such as cloudflare-workers. Common tags like "mcp" or "ai" are ignored for this: agreeing with six hundred other projects is not a similarity.

This is not a recommendation and not a test result. It is a map of what the authors said their work is about.
