Paul's Handkerchief is Bible study with a difference — going word-by-word through Scripture to reclaim the Ancient Near East context, romance, and mystery that modern translations often leave behind.

Only about 3% of people around the world who start the Bible ever finish it. The 3% Club is for those ready to break that cycle — reading the entire Bible at their own pace, backed by community and tools built to make finishing not just possible, but inevitable. You also get a certificate to celebrate your achievement.

Bible Cafe isn't just Bible study — it's a personal, intimate conversation with Him. Think less classroom, more kitchen table. It combines the original Coffee with Jesus experience with activities like quizzes, crosswords, journaling and more, all designed to let the Word shape your heart, not just your head.

Most English Bibles can't carry the full weight of what's in the original Hebrew and Greek. The F.O.G Bible Project exists to change that — three new translations built publicly (a Study Bible, a Reader's Bible, and F.O.G Jr. for younger readers), plus a word-by-word renewal of Strong's Concordance restoring the depths most translations leave behind. It is Jean Paul's lifelong work, unfolding in public — and you're invited in.

Jean Paul Joseph is the lead editor of the F.O.G Bible Project. He works from a personal encounter with Jesus first, then draws on the scholarship of respected Jewish and Christian scholars — because the church was Jewish before it was anything else, and those roots change everything about how you read Scripture.

1 Corinthians 7:36

Translations

F.O.G.MPrimary

F.O.G Message

But if any man thinks he is acting dishonorably toward his fiancée — if she is past her prime and the situation demands it — let him do what he wants. It is no sin. Let them get married.

F.O.GSecondary

The F.O.G

But if anyone thinks he is behaving dishonourably toward his virgin — if she is past the full bloom of youth and it so ought to be — let him do as he wishes; he does not sin. Let them marry.

KJV

King James Version

But if any man think that he behaveth himself uncomely toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of her age, and need so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them marry.

BSB

Berean Standard Bible

However, if someone thinks he is acting inappropriately toward his betrothed, and if she is beyond her youth and they ought to marry, let him do as he wishes; he is not sinning; they should get married.

Footnotes

Hyperakmos ('past the peak/bloom') is genuinely ambiguous: it can describe a woman past marriageable age, or a man at the height of uncontrollable passion. Tēn parthenon autou ('his virgin') is similarly contested — she may be his betrothed, a daughter under guardianship, or a woman under his patronage. The FOG preserves the ambiguity; the FOG Message resolves it as 'fiancée,' reflecting the most common scholarly reading.
