How long might it have been since you looked at these?  I had looked at these years ago and decided that they did not serve the concepts that I had in mind.  So I looked again at word study which is not what I would do in the method that I use to study, but only 5 pages of 47 have anything on them.  Did you notice the time on the last update?  2011 There are a lot of new things under the sun since then.  To get back in the evaluation, I saw nothing in these that would interest  a Christian of the pews who may only have a high school edu, well even college because in word studies we want to know what is God's message not a scholar.  Scholars want to go to their definitions, they don't use word comparisons of the writers use of the word or between translation differences.  All this is very easily done in e-sword but unless you learn it yourself you will never get it.  The super simple searches and comparison of writers and translators is something almost anyone could be taught and it would have meaning to them.  A screencast walking them through a study of a topic is something that would be easily grasp by the individuals that I have reference to, oh by the way I don't believe that many preachers even understand the concept.  I know many who have never used a computer for their studies.  Could you understand why that would be true?  They have never been shown how.
