How to Set Up and Use FHL Bible

The FHL Bible MCP Server provides AI clients with deep access to biblical scripture, original-language word studies, commentaries, and patristic texts through 27 specialized tools. It supports over 20 Bible translations, Hebrew/Greek Strongs concordance lookups, 10+ commentary resources, Apocrypha books, and Apostolic Fathers texts, making it a comprehensive research platform for Bible study, sermon preparation, and theological inquiry. The server is built in Python with a full virtual environment setup and 160 unit tests for reliability.

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.10 or higher installed
  • Git for cloning the repository
  • An MCP-compatible client such as Claude Desktop or VS Code with an MCP extension
  • Sufficient disk space for Bible translation and commentary data files (several hundred MB)
1

Clone the repository

Download the FHL MCP Server source code from GitHub.

git clone https://github.com/ytssamuel/FHL_MCP_SERVER.git
cd FHL_MCP_SERVER
2

Run the automated install script

Use the platform-specific install script to set up the virtual environment, install dependencies, and initialize the data files automatically.

# macOS / Linux:
chmod +x scripts/install.sh && bash scripts/install.sh

# Windows:
.\scripts\install.bat
3

Generate the MCP client configuration

Run the config generation script to produce the correct claude_desktop_config.json snippet with the right virtual environment Python path.

python scripts/generate_config.py
4

Add the generated config to Claude Desktop

Copy the generated JSON snippet into ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows). The config must use the virtual environment Python, not the system Python.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "fhl-bible": {
      "command": "/path/to/FHL_MCP_SERVER/venv/bin/python",
      "args": ["-m", "fhl_mcp_server"],
      "env": {
        "PYTHONPATH": "/path/to/FHL_MCP_SERVER/src",
        "LOG_LEVEL": "INFO"
      }
    }
  }
}
5

Restart Claude Desktop

Quit and reopen Claude Desktop to load the FHL Bible server. You can verify it loaded by asking Claude to list available Bible versions.

  }
}

Prompts to try

Example prompts for scripture study, original language research, and commentary access.

- "Get John 3:16 in the KJV, NIV, and ESV translations."
- "Look up the Greek word for 'love' (agape) in Strongs concordance — G26."
- "Search the Bible for all verses containing the word 'covenant'."
- "Get Matthew Henry's commentary on Romans 8:28."
- "Retrieve 1 Corinthians chapter 13 and analyze the original Greek words for love."
- "List all available Bible versions and commentary resources."

Troubleshooting FHL Bible

Server fails to start with 'ModuleNotFoundError'

The 'command' in your MCP config must point to the virtual environment Python, not the system Python. Use the path printed by 'python scripts/generate_config.py'. Confirm it by running '/path/to/venv/bin/python -c "import fhl_mcp_server"' in your terminal.

Bible data or commentary files are missing

Re-run the install script (bash scripts/install.sh) which downloads and initializes all required data files. Check available disk space — the full dataset requires several hundred MB.

Strongs lookup returns no results

Strongs numbers are prefixed: H for Hebrew Old Testament (e.g. H1234) and G for Greek New Testament (e.g. G26). Make sure you are using the correct prefix and number format when calling get_word_analysis or lookup_strongs.
