We have several Bible verisons in App Store but what I need is some Bible tools like lexicon or concordance. Is anybody planning to work on it or is it already somewhere in App Store? I couldn't find it so far. Thanks.

I don't believe there is a concordance yet and I don't know if there ever will be. It would be a lot of data so it would be a very large app if you wanted it stored on your Iphone/Touch.
Currently I just use www.blueletterbible.org whenever I need to use a concordance. It isn't the most user friendly on the Iphone/touch but it does work, however, you need to be able to access the internet to use it.

Laridian is working on bringing PocketBible to the iPhone. They have lots of reference materials that will eventually be available as well.

I'm not exactly a religious person, but the one I found that seems to be the best is simply "Bible."

It apparently has a bazillion different versions and looks pretty legible. It's free, so you might as well try it. I honestly haven't read much of it, but I plan to at least on a "I want to know this stuff" basis. Now if James Earl Jones could read the darn thing to me for free, THAT would be sweet. "Jesus...I am your father!"

Personally I find Mantis Bible Study (http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=286041914&mt=8) to be the best. It works completely offline (comes with KJV ... oh well) and supports, dictionaries, commentaries, etc. You can get Bibles with the Strongs Numbers (Concordance) (NASB w/Strong's (http://mantisbible.com/BibleStore/tabid/86/CategoryID/0/List/0/Level/a/ProductID/9/Default.aspx?txtSearch=*&SortField=UnitCost+DESC%2cProductName)) from their online store (http://mantisbible.com/BibleStore/tabid/86/CategoryID/0/Level/a/List/0/Default.aspx?txtSearch=*&SortField=UnitCost%20DESC,ProductName).

this is an old thread i know but if you have a bit of dosh, mantis bible study (http://www.touchmyapps.com/2009/04/12/mantis-bible-study-in-review-a-bookshelf-in-your-pocket/) is amazing. you can sign up for an account and then upgrade your mantis app from within via downloads.
full strongs, instant look ups, multiple bibles etc. it is really great and other than the small screen and size is a fully desktop bible replacement.
it has a few minor bugs and sometimes loading times are a bit lengthy but definitely the best bible app i have used at the app store.
