Where to properly report a Logos error?

While studying the genealogy of Gen 10, I did a search on the Hebrew word for "coast lands" in 10:5. Unfortunately, I get the following of false positives.

Isa 13:22, 34:14
Jer 50:39
Job 22:30
Ecc 4:10, 10:16

In these passages the word for coast lands is mistaken for the word for "jackal" or "woe" - both of which are either similar or identical, but have separate entries in BDB.

I can't find the normal "Report typo" options that I get when looking at most books in my library. I have attached a screen shot for reference.

I'm not sure how to properly report this. Can someone please advise?

Thanks,

Adam York

The WIVU morphology is quite old and does not include homograph distinctions. You might be interested in a Hebrew Bible with a more modern morphology such as BHW with Westminster 4.18, which should function a lot better for you.

Some older posts about this issue may provide some additional information for you:

Thanks very much Andrew. I'm looking at getting the BHW. I already have the LHB. I did a search using the LHB and am not getting the false positives. For regular bible study / sermon prep stuff would you say that the LHB is a sufficient alternative to the BHW?

I think LHB will work great for regular study / sermon prep.

There will be differences in the tagging between the two analyses. LHB, for example, has root tagging while BHW does not. BHW may also have some additional morphological features tagged that are not available in LHB. There can even be differences in the tagging of features that are common to both.

I'll leave it up to other forum users to detail the strengths and weaknesses of the various options. You might get better response if you create a new thread asking specifically for strengths and weaknesses of the various Hebrew Bible options.
