Tanach תנ״ך on-line.

Rubén Gómez has a posting about the Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia from the Michigan-Claremont electronic text at the Oxford Text Archivev now being available on the web.
Readers of Philo may also be interested in the Hebrew texts, without always having them available in book form. Hence this is a useful site too.The Tanach of the Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia is transcribed from the
Michigan-Claremont electronic text by Whitaker and Parunak as archived in the Oxford Text Archive (OTA)(biblheb.525). The standard version contains 4 of the 6 textual elements of the OTA document: consonants, vowels, cantillation marks, ketib-qere variants, and the paragraph (pe,samekh) marks. The morphological division marks and the end-of-line marks have not been included, but are available by request. The transcription was based on the "Supplement to the code manual for the Michigan Old Testament" by Alan Groves and includes the transcription notes defined there.
A listing of these notes can be obtained by clicking on the "Notes" link of the index page. Transcription notes appear as subscripts and can be viewed by clicking on them.
Even though my Resource Pages are primarily for the New Testament, texts like these surely belong to the 'social world of the NT', to say the least..... Thanks to those making this possible.
