SHEBANQ: System for HEBrew Text: ANnotations for Queries and Markup

SHEBANQ: System for HEBrew Text: ANnotations for Queries and Markup
 
This is a system for the study of the Hebrew Bible, produced by the ETCBC in cooperation with the German Bible Society and the Netherlands Bible Society.

It is powered by the ETCBC database, formerly known as WIVU which facilitates powerful syntactical queries. SHEBANQ lets you develop and share those queries with fellow researchers. Scholarly editions of the Bible usually dedicate space to a critical apparatus and various kinds of annotations. SHEBANQ introduces the idea of annotating the text with queries. They show up next to the text pages where the results are. By sharing your queries with others, you may find what you did not search for. Of course you can also add ordinary annotations!
