Most book commentaries on the Hebrew Bible feature numerous "live" biblical references: clicking on any of these references produces The JPS Hebrew-English Tanakh in a separate window that indicates biblical Hebrew verse and its English translation.

JDL includes electronic editions of two major encyclopedias --

• the classic 13-volume Jewish Encyclopedia;
• Hastings' Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics—along with more than 200 of important, many award-winning, volumes covering virtually all aspects of Jewish experience.
