Tagged Hebrew Bible & Strongs

THis is the best lookup lexicon to use for Hebrew interlinear - it is tagged to Strongs, includes the pointed Hebrew and has an abbreviated BDB entry. And the version downloadable from http://github.com/openscriptures has even more corrections than mine. For all I know, it might finally be letter perfect! THis version is also packaged in nice XML which can easily be converted to any other DB format.

The equivalent lexicon at Crosswire for Greek is, I think, in a much better state, and didn't need all the work the Hebrew did.

The version of the tagged OT text at http://github.com/openscriptures is also in very good condition (prob better than the one at Crosswire). It appears to only contain PD data - ie it doesn't include the more complete morphology data which is copyrighted.

Can we create a task in JIRA for this?

I'm a bit lost as to where this fits? Is the lookup of dictionary definitions? Or would it be part of the interlinears? Is it a standalone thing which enables us to build on this later?

Dear Chris & Troy

Do you know the Open Scriptures guys?
They have a GoogleGroups at http://groups.google.com/group/open-scriptures
where they are interacting a lot with Sword stuff,
and a public repository at http://github.com/openscriptures

David Troidl <DavidTroidl@aol.com> has just uploaded a corrected copy of the Strong's dictionary,
based on my previous work, having found and corrected a host of errors I'd missed,
as well as upgrading the Unicode and other things.

They also have a "morphhb" which is the Leningrad OT tagged with Strongs, in Unicode with many corrections.
- ie all the PD stuff, but with extra corrections and all in tidy XML.

This should probably become  the basis of our OT work.
