What it can do
Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 11, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.
get_chapterReturn the full text of a chapter (every verse) from the Hebrew Bible / Tanach. Use list_books first to get valid English book names; see the language enum for available languages.
get_verseReturn the text of one specific verse from the Hebrew Bible / Tanach, e.g. Genesis 1:1. Use list_books for valid English book names.
list_booksList every book available in this corpus with its English name, localized name, and the link to its first chapter. Call this to discover valid book names for get_chapter / get_verse.
list_subjectsList the subjects (categories) you can browse, such as the Weekly Torah Portion, Holidays, Daily Study, Psalms (Tehillim), Bible Stories, and Characters. Each returns a code to pass to browse_subject. Call this to discover what is available before browsing.
browse_subjectList study plans and articles for a subject or topic. Pass a subject code from list_subjects (for example "parsha", "holidays", "tehillim", "stories"), or any topic tag (for example "jonah", "purim", "psalm 23"). Results are paginated; pass the returned cursor to get more.
get_planGet the full detail of one study plan: its title, description, total length, and the day-by-day study schedule (first 7 days shown). Pass a plan id from a browse_subject link (the final path segment, e.g. "jonah_and_the_whale").

Common questions
Is Hebrew Bible (Tanakh) safe?
It passed 4 of 4 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.
What keys or codes does it need?
The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.
Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?
It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.
Is it still maintained?
The GitHub repo last changed 5 months ago, and the latest version (1.0.0) reached the registry 5 months ago.
Which apps can use it?
Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT Business and above.
