Using the Biblia Hebraica transcripta
The Biblia Hebraica transcripta (BHt) is unique in that it is based on a transliterated form of the Hebrew text. The additional word-level data (lemmas, roots, and other items) are subsequently in a transliterated form of the Hebrew text as well. This has usage implications with features developed to be used with lemmas, roots, and words rendered with Hebrew characters. Not all such features will function with BHt in the same way they would function with the Lexham Hebrew Bible (LHB). As such, it is best to use BHt in parallel with a Hebrew analysis such as the LHB to retain access to those features.
Morphological searches in BHt, however, are fully supported, as are searches for lemmas and roots encoded in BHt's transliteration scheme. And the unique features that the BHt provides — like word formation pattern information and information about word endings — are fully searchable as well.

About Biblia Hebraica transcriptaThe Biblia Hebraica transcripta (BHt) is a linguistically informed analysis of the Hebrew Bible based on the work of Wolfgang Richter as carried forward by Christian Riepl and Johann Peter Rechenmacher. Uniquely, the BHt is a transcription of the Hebrew Bible (Leningradensis) that represents the text in a transliterated form. The Logos Bible Software version also encodes the Hebrew characters as a separate interlinear line for each word. This implementation of the BHt includes data from the BHt word level analysis. It provides morpho-syntactic information of each word but also includes information about word formation and endings unavailable in any other database of the Hebrew Bible. Richter’s analysis is best understood in light of three underlying concepts. The first concept involves the notion that “identification of grammatical categories on account of the distribution properties of items [should be] at the same level of description.” In other words, analysis having to do with the word level should be encoded at the word level, clause level at clause level, and so forth. Second is Richter’s integration of valency theory into his analysis. Third is his “distinction between surface level and deep structure of a clause” (Rechenmacher and van der Merwe 2005, 79). |
