===Parallel Bibles: English translations in parallel columns===
Useful tools for the English-speaking student of the Bible include ''Parallel Bibles'' which show the English text of several, usually four, different published translations of the Bible displayed side by side in parallel columns on each page for direct comparison. These are not always available to consult at the public library and may be obtained through an ''interlibrary loan''. Some individuals decide to purchase their own copies for use as home reference works.
