How Do I Restrict a Search to just the word ....

Recommended Posts

I attempted a search on the Hebrew word in Genesis 1:1 that follows Elohim... the word consisting of the letters Aleph Tav t¶Ea . I received 11,940 hits and some of the words it marked were t¶Ea , t¶Ea◊w , rwäøaDh_tRa , ~AoyIq∂rDh_tRa ... etc. I do not know Hebrew. I can't figure out how to limit the results to just t¶Ea so I am hoping someone can help me do this. I want to thank you up front for taking the time to read my post.

Are you wanting to search for all occurrences of the word ‏tEa, or are you wanting to look for the particular spelling of the word found in Genesis 1:1?

 

I click in the word in question in Genesis 1:1 (in the BHS-W4), and then amplify to the BHS-W4 on the Resource pallette, I get 10, 970 hits, all of them the same word.

 

The vowel pointing and the cantilation marks do vary across the hits, following the rules of Biblical Hebrew.

 

If I copy and paste the word into the search box, I get the 11,940 hits you mention. If you click on the details button (it looks like a graph) and choose the Analysis tab, you will see a break down of the various words.

 

Does that help a little bit? Feel free to ask more questions if I haven't been clear enough.
