Our Story
Bringing ancient wisdom to modern seekers
In a world moving faster than ever, people are searching for meaning, peace, and direction. The Bible—a treasure trove of wisdom accumulated over thousands of years—holds answers to life's deepest questions. But finding those answers has never been easy.
Traditional concordances require knowing the exact word you're looking for. Search engines return hundreds of results with no context. Generic devotionals speak broadly but miss your specific situation. We knew there had to be a better way.
Or Torah (Hebrew for "Light of Torah") was born from a simple question: "What if you could simply tell the Bible what you're experiencing, and it could speak directly to your heart?"
Using advanced AI that understands meaning and emotion—not just keywords—we've created a bridge between ancient scripture and modern life. When you share your struggles, questions, or joys, Or Torah finds passages that truly resonate. But we don't stop there.
Every passage comes with rich context: the historical background, theological insights, practical applications, and even a prayer to guide you. We honor the Jewish roots of Scripture while making it accessible to all believers. Our approach is scholarly yet personal, reverent yet practical.
We believe the Bible isn't just a book to be studied—it's a living word meant to transform how we live, love, and lead. Or Torah is our gift to anyone seeking that transformation.
What We Believe
Scripture Is Alive
We believe the Bible is the living, breathing Word of God—relevant, powerful, and capable of speaking to every person in every generation. Technology should serve this truth, not diminish it.
Context Matters
Understanding the original meaning, cultural background, and theological framework is essential. We never offer verses out of context—every passage is grounded in sound biblical scholarship.
Accessible to All
Whether you're a seasoned theologian or someone opening the Bible for the first time, Or Torah meets you where you are. Profound truth should be accessible, not gatekept.
Orthodox & Faithful
We stand firmly within historic Christian orthodoxy while celebrating our Jewish heritage. Our AI is trained on sound theology, not trends or personal interpretations.
How We Honor the Text
🕎 Respecting Jewish Roots
The Bible begins with the Torah, given to the Jewish people. We celebrate this heritage by incorporating Hebrew insights, understanding Jewish context, and recognizing that Jesus Himself was thoroughly Jewish. Our name, "Or Torah" (Light of Torah), reflects this commitment.
📚 Scholarly Rigor
Our content is developed with input from biblical scholars, theologians, and pastors. We cite sources, provide cross-references, and ensure every interpretation aligns with established Christian doctrine and sound hermeneutical principles.
🤖 AI as a Tool, Not a Teacher
Our AI doesn't interpret Scripture—it connects you to passages and scholarly resources that do. Think of it as an incredibly knowledgeable librarian who knows exactly which book on the shelf will help you. The wisdom comes from the Bible itself, not the algorithm.
💡 Practical Application
We bridge the gap between "what did this mean then?" and "what does this mean for me now?" Every passage includes actionable guidance because we believe faith without works is incomplete. The goal isn't just knowledge—it's transformation.
Built With Love
Or Torah is crafted by a team of believers, developers, and scholars who are passionate about making Scripture accessible. We're not a faceless corporation—we're a community dedicated to helping people encounter God through His Word.
Every line of code, every study note, every design choice is made with prayer and intention. We use this tool ourselves daily, and we're constantly improving it based on feedback from our community.
"Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path."
— Psalm 119:105
