Midvash MCP server

Which MCP servers are Midvash's own, from the official registry and from asking its own domain, whether they answer, and what they offer. A program checked each of these, nobody copied them from a product page.

Whose server it is
  • Registry namecom.midvash/bibleverified in the MCP registry

The registry name sits under midvash.com. The registry only lets a publisher use that namespace after proving control of the domain through DNS or HTTP.

On 2026-10-23 the server answered initialize and tools/list without a sign-in. First answer in 83 ms.

Should an agent connect itNot proven either way yet
  • Its tools do study Bible passages in original Greek and Hebrew; compare one passage across many Bible translations, but not read a short daily devotional with guided prayer.
  • Checked on 4 of the 7 days it takes to judge reliability.

Once connected

  • For "compare one passage across many Bible translations", the likely first call is compare_passage.

Said by rules from the measurements above. The likely first call is a model's pick from the tool list; read its description before relying on it.

Worth a look

None of the five warning signs in these definitions.

A program checks the server once a day: initialize and tools/list, no model. Tokens are the definitions' length at about four characters a token. The grade averages six checks of every tool's name, description, schema and annotations; it says how well the tools are described, not whether they work. The score weighs what was measured and nothing else: answering (25%), doing the product's job (25%), definitions (20%), context (10%), use (10%) and how readily a client connects (10%). A part that was not measured is left out, and a hidden instruction caps the score at 40. The state of vendors' MCP servers: method and numbers →

Tools it offers11 tools · read 2026-10-23
  • get_verse

    Fetches one exact Bible verse or a contiguous verse range from a specific version. Use this when the book, chapter, verse, and version are already known. For natural references such as "John 3:16-18", prefer get_passage.

  • get_chapter

    Fetches a full Bible chapter from a specific version, formatted in Markdown with numbered verses. Use this when the user needs chapter-level context instead of an isolated verse.

  • get_passage

    Fetches Bible passages from natural-language references such as "John 3:16-18", "Psalm 23", "Romans 8:1-9:5" (crossing chapters) or "John 3:16; Romans 8:1" (several at once). This is the primary lookup tool when the user gives a citation…

  • search_bible

    Searches the Bible text for words or an exact phrase and returns matching verses ranked by relevance. Matching ignores letter case, accents, and Hebrew and Arabic vowel marks; wrap the query in double quotes for an exact phrase. Use this…

  • compare_passage

    Compares the same Bible passage across multiple Bible versions and returns a Markdown side-by-side style comparison. Use this for translation comparison, sermon preparation, or study questions. For a single version, use get_passage.

  • list_versions

    Lists Bible versions available to the current MCP connection, automatically respecting URL filters such as ?v=onbv,kjv and ?lang=pt-br,en. Use this before lookup, search, or comparison when the user has not specified a version.

  • list_books

    Lists the 66 canonical Bible books with localized names, slugs, abbreviations, testament grouping, and chapter counts. Use this when an agent needs valid book identifiers or localized display names before calling lookup tools.

  • get_cross_references

    Finds other Bible passages that relate to a given verse, ranked by how widely the link is attested. This answers "what else in Scripture speaks to this?" — the standard next step in study after reading a verse. Returns each related…

  • search_study

    Searches Midvash's Bible study library: chapter commentaries, Bible characters, dictionary entries, and theology articles, in 9 languages. Use this for background and explanation — who a person was, what a term means, what a chapter is…

  • get_commentary

    Fetches the Midvash commentary for the chapter a reference points to — what the chapter is about, its context and its main movements. Every one of the 1,189 Bible chapters has one, in 9 languages. Use this for "what is this chapter about"…

  • get_strongs

    Looks up a word in Strong's lexicon — 8,674 Hebrew and 5,523 Greek entries — by Strong's number ("H430", "G2316") or by the word itself, in the original script or transliterated ("elohim", "θεός"). Returns the lemma, transliteration…

How to connect

Add the server to your MCP client config. Claude Desktop, Cursor and most other clients read this shape:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bible": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.midvash.com/mcp/registry"
    }
  }
}

Add it

Claude Code, in a terminal

claude mcp add --transport http midvash https://mcp.midvash.com/mcp/registry

Add to CursorAdd to VS Code

claude.ai, ChatGPT and other clients: add https://mcp.midvash.com/mcp/registry as a custom connector in the settings.

Each line is something a program found when it went looking: the registry entry, the server's own answer, a spec that parses. A missing line means we did not find it, not that it does not exist.
