Terms of use

Rightly is a free study aid that gives context for Bible verses. It is meant to sit beside your Bible, not to replace it. By using the site you agree to these terms.

Last updated November 1, 2026

Check what you read

Context cards, chapter notes and the notes on how other faiths read a verse are written with the help of AI, then checked against the sources each statement cites, with Scripture first. They can still contain mistakes. Read them as you would any study note: search the Scriptures to see whether these things are so (Acts 17:11). Nothing on Rightly is pastoral, legal, medical or other professional advice.
