Compiled and preserved by Jewish scribes (Masoretes) of the fifth through tenth centuries AD, the accuracy of the Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia (BHS) is confirmed by its consistency with both the Greek Septuagint (LXX) version and the Dead Sea Scrolls. The Masoretes are said to have standardized the Jewish text, putting in the vowel points that are familiar to Hebrew readers today. They were devoutly religious in their meticulous copy work, willing to destroy a whole manuscript if it was discovered to contain a single error. The result of their work is a collection of manuscripts which, though relatively few in number, displays remarkable accuracy. The BHS is also sometimes referred to as the Hebrew Masoretic Text (HMT).

This product does not contain parsing information. If you would like this feature, see also Groves-Wheeler Westminster Hebrew Morphology - BHS Add-On.
