BUG in Zech 12:10 tagged Hebrew text

[wpjubber]

There seems to be something that is not correctly coordinated in the tagged text of Zechariah 12:10. I haven't done any kind of extended investigation, but there are certainly issues in this portion of the Hebrew texts. See screenshots for examples of misaligned tags in the parallel, or entirely missing tags in the parallel.

This is more a function of the English text you are using than the BHS-T. Here are four images matching yours.

 

  

 

The NIV11/GKE has far more extensive and granular grammatical tagging than the NAS95S.

 

Image breakdown:

 

1) The על is untranslated, but matches tagging on the word "over" (H5291) from על-חבכור found at the end of the verse. Hovering over those words in the BHS doesn't highlight appropriately because, according to the algorithm we've already "seen" that instance of על.

 

2) There are no instances in the NAS95S of the tag (H413) for אל, this is why there are no instances of highlighting.

 

3) See the answer for 1), we've algorithmically already "seen" the single tag for על in the NAS95S.

 

4) The NAS95S has both instances of "mourns" tagged with H5594, ספד. The BHS-T (and NIV11/GKE) understand the second instance to be a different lemma, מספד, H4553, and are tagged accordingly.

 

Hope this little write up helps.

Graham is correct.

 

Most key number tagged Bibles only tag what they consider the "important" words. You can see this if you display them as an interlinear, as I did in the attached screenshot. Accordance will try to find a match anyway, which means sometimes it just picks the closest equivalent word that is tagged. The Bible with the best tagging in the NIV 2011 with enhanced GK numbers, which I highly recommend to this sort of exercise.
