If you’re looking for a free physical copy of the bible, the best place to go is a local church. Almost every church is more than happy to hand out a free copy of the bible to you.

There are two different websites that will let you order a free copy of the bible. A Ministry called “Bibles for America” will send you a free copy of the New Testament (the second half of the bible), which contain a lot of great footnotes and some study material along with that.

Another organization, the Free Bible Society, will allow you to order a free copy of the bible (even shipping s free). All you have to do is send them an email at freebiblesociety@gmail.com with a request.
