Along this line, I have a Hebrew text in OSIS. The text in from
Christopher Kimball's WLC, the Strong numbers are from Graham Nind.
Each book is in a separate file, and the markup may not be exactly ready
for module time, but it is available. Zipped it comes to 2.38 MB. If
there's some place I could upload it, you are welcome to use it.
Morphology is another issue. I have the Westminster Hebrew Morphology
with the Hebrew Old Testament in WORDsearch, and I have the Complete
Word Study Old Testament, with its morphological system, but neither is
public domain. Some system of morphological notation would be the first
requirement. Something suitable to Hebrew, and not just a rehash of
Robinson. And then enough people with access to appropriate resources
for the input of the markup.
Peace,
David

Forwarding this to sword-devel as afaik that is the appropriate place

Would it be possible to use the software from the KJV2003 strongs
tagging project for a project like this and how would they get it
started?

Subject: [GnomeSword-developers] Hebrew WLC Text with Strongs numbers
and Morphology?
To: gnomesword-us...@lists.sourceforge.net,
gnomesword-develop...@lists.sourceforge.net
Hi! Some people might have heard of me, but my name is Etienne Snyman, a
fourth-year student of Theology at Stellenbosch University, South
Africa. At our seminary, we use the Logos Libronix library program on
our computers to assist us in our Greek and Hebrew studies. However, I
have come to know and love the Sword/Xiphos project, and find it a good
alternative to the very expensive Logos software.
For this reason, I propose to solve the one problem that keeps me from
suggesting to our faculty to stop paying for unnecessary software and go
open-source. This problem is that there IS NO HEBREW SWORD MODULE WITH
STRONGS NUMBERS AND MORPHOLOGY/. /In fact, there is no WLC module with
anything except the basic text.
Since I am at a faculty with about one hundred students who understand
the language to lesser and greater degrees, I was wondering if it was
possible to get some of them, and as many people as we can get involved
over the entire world, and create a Sword module, a public domain module
with Strongs numbers and morphology, since I have not been able to find
a module we can use which is not copywritten.
If anyone agrees with me, and wants to get involved, I think it will be
a great idea to have a fully functioning open-source alternative to the
most expensive bible software money can buy (although it is the best at
the moment too!)
Contact me, or perhaps just get involved, and let us make the Hebrew as
accessible as the Greek!
Love and peace!
Etienne
