*An open-licensed, lexically tagged, morphologically parsed Hebrew Old Testament. It enables the global Church to have access to the original texts of the Old Testament.*
The UHB is based on the [Open Scriptures Hebrew Bible](https://github.com/openscriptures/morphhb) (OSHB) version 2.1. This project is the Westminster Leningrad Codex with Strongs lexical data and morphological data marked up in OSIS files.
* Metadata - The UHB text includes various metadata to mark the text which create links to other content that our software uses. For example, we add links to our [unfoldingWord® Translation Words](https://git.door43.org/unfoldingWord/en_tw) articles where appropriate.
* Joined words (for example: inseparable prepositions, the definite article, conjunctive waw) are separated using a unicode WORD JOINER (U+2060) character instead of the `/` character that the OSHB uses.
* The UHB is encoded in USFM 3.0 instead of the OSIS that the OSHB uses.
