About

This is the text-fabric representation of the Hebrew Bible Database, containing the text of the Hebrew Bible augmented with linguistic annotations compiled by the Eep Talstra Centre for Bible and Computer, VU University Amsterdam.

This repository contains several versions of the dataset, going back to 2011. It is meant to accumulate new versions over the years. The data in versions will not change, new versions will be stored next to the old versions.

So this repository addresses the need for permanency as well as the urge for change.

More information, especially about the data versions and annotation features, can be found on the data documentation pages.

How to use

This data can be processed by Text-Fabric.

Text-Fabric will automatically download the BHSA data.

After installing Text-Fabric, you can start the Text-Fabric browser by this command

text-fabric etcbc/bhsa

Alternatively, you can work in a Jupyter notebook and say

from tf.app import use

A = use('etcbc/bhsa')

In both cases the data is downloaded and ends up in your home directory, under text-fabric-data.

There is also a static search interface. It is online, but it works on your computer, in the browser.

Just click bhsa-search and off you go.
