In the realm of technological marvels and intellectual pursuits, one entrepreneur’s visionary journey has birthed an extraordinary creation: BiblePics. Sinai Elihai, an esteemed former Googler, growth marketing adviser, and proud father, spearheads this innovative platform that fuses the wisdom of the Bible with the limitless possibilities of AI technology.
In a chat with some of these characters, the AI version of King David spoke of his red hair and love for music, as well as his close relationship with Jonathan. The AI version of Abraham spoke about the complexities of leaving his father, while traveling to the Land of Canaan, and mentioned that he is “the father of many nations.”
By harnessing the power of visual storytelling and cutting-edge AI algorithms, BiblePics offers an immersive experience that breathes life into ancient scriptures, making them accessible, engaging, and relevant for people of all ages and backgrounds.
At the heart of BiblePics lies the convergence of artificial intelligence and biblical narratives. The platform’s innovative approach utilizes AI technology to enhance the exploration and understanding of the scriptures. Through captivating visual imagery, interactive tools, and AI-driven features, BiblePics transports users on a transformative journey, creating an unparalleled connection with the profound wisdom contained within the Bible.
Inspiration often emerges from unexpected sources, and for Elihai it sprang forth from a simple conversation with his eight-year-old son, Jordan. When Jordan expressed his disenchantment with the Bible due to its lack of visual appeal and lengthy text, a spark ignited within Elihai’s entrepreneurial mind. Recognizing the immense value of the scriptures and the need to bridge the gap between ancient texts and the modern reader, he embarked on a mission to create a platform that would infuse the Bible with captivating visuals, interactive elements, and AI-powered conversations. With the desire to let Gen Z “Binge the Bible,” Elihai sought to make this timeless wisdom accessible, engaging, and relatable.
AI technology serves as the cornerstone of BiblePics, infusing the platform with transformative capabilities. Through AI-generated images, the team aims to captivate users’ imagination and foster deeper connections with the biblical stories. These vivid visuals serve as powerful tools to engage both children and adults, enabling them to comprehend and appreciate the profound messages encapsulated within the scriptures.

Users can seek guidance and gain insights from characters such as Adam, Eve, Moses, Abraham, as well as characters such as Jesus, in the New Testament (for Christian clients), fostering a personal connection with the text. Furthermore, the interactive nature of the chat feature enables users to delve into the depths of scripture in a conversational manner, encouraging exploration and facilitating a deeper understanding.
Elihai explained that accuracy is of paramount importance when it comes to AI technology, “especially in the context of biblical scriptures.” To address this concern, the BiblePics team has meticulously trained the AI models and algorithms on a vast corpus of biblical text. By feeding the AI with scripture and defining boundaries, they ensure accurate and contextually appropriate responses. The team places great emphasis on the integrity and faithfulness of the biblical narratives, ensuring that the AI characters only provide answers they are certain about, preventing any misinformation or inaccuracies.
“The adoption of a chat-based interface stems from the belief that feedback is a vital aspect of learning ad engagement,” Elihai explained. Unlike traditional question-and-answer mechanisms, the chat format allows users to interact, ask questions, and receive answers in a more engaging and conversational manner. “The intriguing nature of the chat interface captivates users, encouraging them to delve deeper into the richness of biblical knowledge and spark meaningful conversations,” he said.
BiblePics: A visionary business model
As BiblePics embarks on its official launch, the platform currently offers all its features free of charge. “The team is committed to the long-term journey and considers user feedback an invaluable component of their growth,” Elihai articulated, adding that “we have ventured into the sale of BiblePics-themed merchandise, including T-shirts, as a way to support the project’s continued development and expansion.”
BiblePics is the remarkable result of a unique collaboration between two Jews and two Muslims, symbolizing the profound belief that bridges can be built even between seemingly different worlds. “Embracing the inclusive nature of the Bible, which stands at the foundations of the three major religions, our team seeks to remind the world of the universal messages of forgiveness, kindness, faith, spirituality, and the eternal relevance of these stories,” Elihai concluded.

BiblePics aims to penetrate key markets, including Israel, the United States, Spain, and Portugal, by partnering with educational institutions. By offering captivating AI-powered tools, BiblePics aims to empower students and educators to explore the depths of biblical knowledge in interactive and engaging ways. Furthermore, the platform envisions branching into the realm of B2B solutions, aiding companies in enhancing user engagement through customized chatbots, interactive content, and gamification.
