BHQ vs. HBCE

BHQ is a diplomatic edition, HBCE is eclectic (a novelty in OT studies)

I haven't followed how the HBCE project has developed from its initial stages as the Oxford Hebrew Bible project. 

 

Back then, I agreed with Hugh Williamson: https://www.bsw.org/biblica/vol-90-2009/do-we-need-a-new-bible-reflections-on-the-proposed-oxford-hebrew-bible/13/.

 

I suspect most of these reservations still apply, though I am not sure. In general, eclectic texts hold zero value to me as a linguist interested in getting data from a historical artefact.
