Versification issues in the Tanakh? #25

Closed DavidHaslam closed 6 years ago

DavidHaslam commented 7 years ago

Do you have any background information for these observations:

-Nehemiah 7:68 text is missing, with versification off by one afterwards compared to translations -Isaiah 64:1 text is missing, with similar consequences. -Malachi 3:24 text is truncated, except in MapM, where the missing text is supplied but without diacritics

Front-ends with parallel passage display feature will present difficulties around these locations.

cf. Nehemiah 7 has 73 verses in the KJV versification. yet OSHB has only 72 verses. It's conceivable that the displacement "error" might be earlier than verse 68.

Mapping versification schemes to one another is one of the big hurdles that still remains in handling alternate versification. This will affect parallel passage display. We have VerseMap.xml in the wlc directory at https://github.com/openscriptures/morphhb. This is drawn from notes throughout the OSHB text, that record differences between the MT and KJV versification schemes.
