Hebrew Lexicon
|
||
7/5/2013
|
||
|
||
The Hebrew Lexicon is now established in its current format. It is
|
||
comprised of three separate files:
|
||
|
||
1. BrownDriverBriggs.xml contains the current BDB content. It remains
|
||
a work in progress. Entries will be filled out over time, especially
|
||
in the area of completing the scripture references, and Hebrew words.
|
||
|
||
2. HebrewStrong.xml contains the content for Strong's Hebrew Dictionary.
|
||
Numerous corrections have been made, since the initial offering, in a
|
||
significantly different format. The layout now follows the Hebrew Mesh,
|
||
with duplicated entries recombined.
|
||
|
||
3. LexicalIndex.xml is now the meeting place of BDB, Strong and the
|
||
TWOT numbers, again significantly improved from the original Strong's
|
||
Dictionary, and incorporating corrections that have arisen in the
|
||
process of constructing the new lexicon.
|
||
|
||
The lexical index is meant to bridge the gap between the accessibility
|
||
and ubiquity of Strong's Dictionary, and the comprehensiveness and
|
||
accuracy of BDB. For those versed in Hebrew, and wanting the depth of
|
||
BDB, it can now be accessed on its own terms. For those more familiar
|
||
with Strong numbers, or having current applications based on them, the
|
||
lexical index provides access directly to entries via the Strong numbers.
|
||
|
||
Additional files for the current iteration of the lexicon include:
|
||
|
||
1. AugIndex.xml to map the augmented Strong numbers of the OSHB to the IDs
|
||
of the lexical index.
|
||
|
||
2. BdbSchema.xsd the XML schema for BrownDriverBriggs.xml.
|
||
|
||
3. LiSchema.xsd the XML schema for LexicalIndex.xml.
|
||
|
||
4. StrongSchema.xsd the XML schema for HebrewStrong.xml.
|
||
|
||
5. HebrewLexicon.pdf documentation for all parts of the lexicon.
|
||
|
||
TWOT numbers are included for reference purposes only. We are in no way
|
||
directly transcribing the Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament.
|
||
|
||
Thanks to Daniel Owens, for much help, especially in transcribing the
|
||
main entries, not listed in Strong's.
