Is this an incorrect tag or is there something that I don't know about this word...?

Hi,

I was digging in Genesis and clicked a word in the exegetical guide....hola.

The resources in the EG seemed to be consistent except the TWOT....I don't get what it's entry has to do with my word....

Is this a mis-tag or is there some Hebrew thing/resource thing that I'm not aware of?

Also...just out of curiosity; why do some resources have a bit of the definition by their name and others don't?

I don't own TWOT, but I get the same problem when I do a Bible Word Study in Libronix on עֹלָה
(burnt offering): most of my dictionaries open with the lemma עַוְלָה
(injustice).

I guess that because of a verse like Isaiah 61:8 the lemma עַוְלָה (injustice) has to be tagged also as עוֹלָה, i.e. in the same way as you would spell "burnt offering". Since עַוְלָה
(TWOT 1580b) comes before עֹלָה
(TWOT 1624c), the dictionary will open first at the entry on injustice. I don't know much about tagging, but apparently it has been fixed in some of the other dictionaries.

Ughh! Some incorrect tagging of TWOT numbers leads to this error. This has been the case from 4.0 beta, so I'd like to hear what Logos has been doing about it!

Nepotism pure and simple[:)] Some resources don't have the markings/tags to enable an efficient/meaningful extraction of words.
