Study Love, subtitled, "A Super-Outline for Study or Meditation on 1 Cor. 13:4-7 (The New Testament Definition of Agape: Spiritual Love)", is a website that has been growing very slowly since 2001. "While it is possible to find topics here to debate," says a disclaimer under the Study Love main index, "this is primarily a space for people to learn how to put agape (love) into thought and practice." The site consists mainly of sixteen sections, each headed by a phrase from the King James Version:

  • Charity
  • Suffereth Long
  • And Is Kind
  • Charity Envieth Not
  • Charity Vaunteth Not Itself
  • Is Not Puffed Up
  • Etc.

Each section corresponds to one of the items listed in the New Testament's classic definition of agape (spiritual love). Each section includes:

  • A multitude of translations and versions of its head phrase.
  • Multiple definitions of the original Greek words and some of their derivatives ("paronyms"), synonyms, and antonyms.
  • Examples of these words elsewhere in the Bible.
  • Relevant quotations from other ancient sources and from commentators of later and modern centuries.
  • Some also have English dictionary definitions. Some have Hebrew equivalents and definitions.
  • There are also a few "Easter eggs", for example, a sub-page about love feasts and a sub-page about kindness to animals.

The site's design is minimistically plain, so the pages load unusually quickly. The whole site (except for optional music files) is downloadable in one tiny ZIP file (less 1 MB).
