AI Bible Tutor · Grounded in Scripture
Read Scripture the way it was first heard.
Ask Ezra is your AI Bible tutor — answering any question with historical, cultural, and spiritual context, every answer traceable to Scripture and trusted commentaries.
Great question. Luke 14:26 uses a Semitic idiom of comparison — not literary hatred. Jesus' Aramaic-speaking audience would have understood "hate" as "love less by comparison."

"I will show wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and billows of smoke. Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."

“Ask Ezra is a great Bible learning App! It's easy to use, and the AI answers are insightful and meaningful!”

★★★★★
“I've been using ask Ezra for a few months now. It's my constant companion as I study the Bible. It helps me slow down and only read what is said in the text rather than reading in interpretation that was taught to me as a child and I just accepted as fact. If you don't have a Bible scholar living with you, this is the next best option!”
