"The Oxford Hebrew Bible will be a new critical edition of the Hebrew Bible featuring a critical text, apparatus, and text-critical introduction and commentary. Each book of the Hebrew Bible will be addressed in a separate volume, published by Oxford University Press, with a single volume each for the Minor Prophets, the Megillot, and Ezra-Nehemiah. This project represents a departure from the other major textual editions (the Biblia Hebraica Quinta and the Hebrew University Bible), which are diplomatic editions."

This would be a perfect module for Accordance!

What's a "diplomatic" edition?

Here is a set of definitions: http://www.ualberta....urse/editns.htm

While this page concerns medieval and latter manuscripts, the definitions are still pertinent.

Have any volumes been published yet?

Thanks Michael. After years of reading about texts and textual criticism there is still more to learn!

It looks fantastic, I would be interested in this too… if i could read hebrew or if a fresh english translation were included… the notes look very in depth.

Looks great, but appears to be years away (and this thread started > 6 years ago). Perhaps it will appear gradually in separate volumes, like BHQ and the Göttingen Septuagint.
