While it is a sad reality that some of the most popular Greek New Testaments in existence (NA28 and UBS5) are copyrighted so strictly that it stifles biblical research, we can rejoice that other Bible scholars have a more generous spirit, and have made their Greek NTs available freely for the benefit of the global church! Following is a list of freely licensed/open sourced Greek New Testament texts in digital format.
