How to play.

How do I play the Bible word search?

Every word in the list is hidden in the grid in a straight line: across, down or diagonally, and it may run backwards. Drag across the letters with your finger or mouse, or tap the first letter and then the last. Found words stay highlighted.

Can I play with a keyboard?

Yes. Tab into the grid and move around it with the arrow keys. Press Enter or Space on the first letter of a word, move to its last letter and press Enter again. Escape cancels a selection.

Where do the words come from?

Every word is taken from the King James Version, from the passage named above the grid. When you find a word, the verse it comes from appears, so you read the passage as you play.

When is there a new puzzle?

A new grid arrives every day at midnight where you are, and everyone gets the same one for that date. Earlier puzzles stay in the archive, and your progress is saved on this device.
