LUX VERITAS

Library of Sacred Texts

About

A sanctuary for texts few people publish

Lux Veritas began with a simple frustration: looking for the Book of Enoch, Jubilees or Pistis Sophia in readable Portuguese, with an index, search and audio, and not finding them.

A rare collection in one place

Alongside 76 canonical books, Lux Veritas brings together 119 apocryphal and pseudepigraphical books — Enoch, Jubilees, Jasher, Pistis Sophia and the Odes of Solomon — and 5 ancient manuscript records. This material is often scattered across poorly scanned PDFs without an index or audio.

Reading without distractions

No pop-up covering the text and no account screen before the first line. Serif type, a parchment background and highlighted verses as narration plays. An account is needed only for features that save your information.

Chapter by chapter narration

Audio is generated with a neural voice and aligned verse by verse to accompany your reading. Narration covers the chapters available in the audio player.

Study with context

Living Word and topic studies answer from actual passages, citing book and chapter so you can check them in the text beside the answer.

Where each text comes from

Portuguese: Bíblia Livre (BLIVRE), © Diego Santos, Mario Sérgio and Marco Teles, February 2018, Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Brazil. Bíblia Livre project · CC BY 3.0 BR. English: King James Version (1769), public domain. Spanish: Reina-Valera 1909, public domain, with modernized spelling. Deuterocanonical, apocryphal and pseudepigraphical books have their own provenance. Consult the provenance and any pending documentation on each book page and at the end of each chapter. Preparation for continuous reading includes numbered chapters and verses, modernized spelling and apparatus notes removed from the main text.

Where manuscripts differ substantially, the book page has an editorial note explaining the choice. The Manuscripts section brings together records of Sinaiticus, Vaticanus, Peshitta, Septuagint and papyrus P52, with what each preserves.

Nothing here is presented as the official canon of any church: apocrypha are identified as apocrypha. The aim is access and context, without replacing your faith tradition or arguing with it. See also licenses and credits.

Who maintains the project

Lux Veritas is made by Pryvion Studio, an independent studio run by Diego Ferreira da Costa — one person, without an editorial team or investor. The same collection is available as an app on Google Play.

Servers, databases, audio generation and AI queries cost money with every use — each chapter heard and each question asked of Living Word adds to the monthly bill. Premium supports the collection so it can stay open to readers who only want to read, without a paywall on the biblical text.
