Benjamin Denckla Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Why, in Accordance HMT-W4, do almost 40 verses have an accent not matching the Leningrad (or Aleppo!) Codex? For example, below I show Job 16:4 in Accordance HMT-W4 and in MAM with doc. See if you can spot the difference. See my article, Undoing and redoing the work of the Masoretes – Part 4: Atnaḥ hafukh, if you want to know more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah, this is a problem Accordance inherits from WLC, not an Accordance-specific problem. In fact, I'm not aware of any Accordance-specific problems, i.e. AFAIK Accordance HMT-W4 is no worse than WLC. Indeed, I'm not sure Accordance has even made any changes to WLC. I.e. HMT-W4 may be both no better and no worse than WLC, because it may equal WLC. Edited January 3 by Benjamin Denckla 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with its many problems, it has served most users well, for their purposes. If users want something better, I think Accordance should "reboot" the old project of making a MAM for Accordance. This is something I can make easy for Accordance to offer because I can prepare a version of MAM in an Accordance-import-friendly format. On the other hand, if users are, by and large, satisfied with HMT-W4, warts and all, then of course there's no need for a better Hebrew Bible on the Accordance platform.

Dr. Nathan Parker Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Thanks! Send me an email at nparker[at]accordancebible[dot]com (replace bracketed text with punctuation) and let's chat. In the meantime, if you have any forum threads where you can dig up customer interest in MAM, include those with your email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
