Am I doing something wrong re: Lexham Hebrew Interlinear

Why aren't the variant readings identified in the Context Menu - rather than three treated as equals? Why doesn't the search build in the appropriate field qualifier? Or am I completely off target because no Hebrew language knowledge?

    As far as Context menu is concerned, you have selected only one word (see Selection).

    Yes, for capturing the image. I tried running the search and/or copy reference on both lemmas and the manuscript entries in the Context Menu ... these appear to represent the two interlinear lines that exist for this surface text word. But neither the source panel or the context menu bother to label the two interlinear lines that are showing.

    Ok. I had to turn on the Interlinear in LHB to see this. The surface is singular, and the two variants are plural, but the Context menu shows only one plural. Some of its Search options are incorrect and don't enable one to find the Qere and Hybrid forms. I don't know about the Manuscript as that appears to be a gloss..., but the Search seems OK.

    Thanks - I can now describe much better why this seemed wrong to me and report it as either a bug or suggestion ...
