Unicode/XML Leningrad Codex (UXLC): Proposed changes

Post by cvkimball »

Daniel Holman has proposed 78 changes to the Torah books of UXLC 1.4. These proposals are the result of a meticulous examination of the color images of the LC. A summary of these changes is available at <https://tanach.us/Changes/2022.07.04%20 ... hanges.xml> . Please feel free to comment on these proposals. They are scheduled for a special release, UXLC 1.5, on 4 July 2022.

Chris,

Wow, what a wonderful work! And a little frustrating, since I spent hundreds of hours pouring over the facsimile for errors!

I was spot checking the corrections and note that at "2022.04.01 - 11 Ex. 21:9.7" that the graphic snippet does not match the correction, but is found in the following correction. This offset continues until at least "2022.04.03 - 1 Lev 4:24.7". There may be other mismatches; I did not check them all.

FYI. And please communicate our appreciation for his work to Daniel!

Kirk,

I think the changes and images are now in synch. Thanks!

Not to worry about missing a few dageshes of the 42,540 dageshes in the Torah! I think today's color photos help a lot.
