Idan Dershowitz

I’ve recently created two open-access websites that I hope will be of use for some of you.

Etnachta is designed for the study of biblical cantillation, both for research and liturgical use. It includes "syntactic" parsing, advanced search tools, and a quiz. Here's a sample search: https://www.etnachta.org/search?query=mahapakh,seq:eek:rdered@syllables=within:::0,pashta&lang=en

Masoretica allows you to locate and view any biblical verse in a manuscript of your choice—including the Aleppo, Leningrad, and Sassoon codices, along with many other Masoretic, Samaritan, and Greek manuscripts—or to compare manuscripts in a synoptic view. The location of each verse has been identified in the manuscript images using kraken (https://kraken.re/main/index.html), with a high degree of accuracy. Many more manuscripts are in the pipeline, so check back again soon. Here's an example: https://www.masoretica.org/?view=compare&manuscripts=all&book=Exodus&chapter=1&verse=1

I’d be very glad to hear any feedback—or simply to know that you found either site helpful!
