Bereshit 9,29 not according to writing in Torah scroll #112

According to Masorah, the verse starts with וַֽיְהִי֙ and not with וַיִּֽהְיוּ֙. In the text used by Sefaria, there is some kind of footnote explaining this.

That is fascinating, I had no idea – thanks for reporting! I'll have to look into this.

If there's truly a discrepancy between Ashkenaz/Sephard, I would need to think about how to represent that in the app. I also assume this may not be the only instance. I'm open to hearing ideas.

There is a list with all changes on Github. Is this list helpful? https://bdenckla.github.io/MAM-with-doc/A1-Genesis.html#c9v29 I checked the printed Tikkun editions I own and all have וַֽיְהִי֙. No edition marks the difference… strange.
