Accordance Enthusiast Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 All the Hebrew Bibles on Accordance (except for DSS) are based on the Leningrad Codex. We need a second text as a backup. The Leningrad Codex does contain mistakes that are not in the Ben Chayim Text. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian K. Mitchell Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Greetings Anonymous, Just for your information a request for the Ben Chayyim Text was made back in 2015 you may or may not find that thread of interest: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accordance Enthusiast Posted March 28, 2022 Author Share Posted March 28, 2022 It does not have to be tagged. If you could only find a way to copy and paste the Ben Chayim Text from a PDF and get the copyright permission it would be an easy task. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian K. Mitchell Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 I am not sure if this is still the case but traditionally Bible Sofware companies had their Hebrew text database typed and stored in a kind of latin transliteration called CCAT (ASCII format) when the end user pulled those text up the software would automatically map a Hebrew font over the CCAT (ASCII text). If CCAT ASCII is still being used internally then it might not be as easy as cut and pasting a text into a new database. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accordance Enthusiast Posted March 28, 2022 Author Share Posted March 28, 2022 I can import a user Bible with Hebrew text. So if only we had the Ben Chayim text in a plain text format I could import that into Accordance no problem. Thus it can't be so difficult.

Fabian Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 AFAIK Swordsearcher has the e-text. Accordance should ask there to get it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
