Lexham Theological Wordbook Error Evil/Shepherd

I was doing a quick study of Psalm 23:1 and noticed in the exegetical guide that the Lexham Theological Wordbook is incorrectly linking to the Hebrew word for evil instead of the one for shepherd.

I am aware of the similarity of the roots and checked the LTW in case there was no entry for shepherd and it was just pointing to a similar root. However, there is quite a significant entry under shepherding. Could this please be fixed?

By the way, the Dictionary of Deities and Demons in the Bible also shows up an unrelated entry in the exegetical guide for this word (only visible on a mouse over!)

This looks like a lemma mapping issue, which affects multiple lexicons. The Glossary to the Hebrew and Canaanite Inscriptions is also affected.

This is a tagging error. Hebrew has many similar roots and different lexicons mark their lemmas differently (by root or by derived forms) so inevitably some errors slip through. I'll pass this along to the department in charge of the tagging. Thanks for making us aware of it.

Thanks for checking too Mark - you probably have just about every resource it might possibly affect!

Thanks Doug for letting us know it will be taken care of.

Colin.

I know this thread is 8 years old, but this error still exists in LTW.

Welcome to the forums. This is a case where it is better to start a new thread rather than resurrect an old thread. I'll add something to bring attention to your post.

This is caused by behavior in the app where the app finds the first instance of a lemma in the target resource.

I've created a case to make overrides to this behavior in Lexham Theological Wordbook.
