אָהֳלֹ֑ה is unpointed. I suppose this is a typo?
[Note: As much as I hate to waste time and bring up a typo in this way, I cannot activate the "Report Typo" function with this resource. I guess typos don't really exist here.]

When reporting typos in tagged Bibles, you have to make sure 'selection' is selected in the context menu. If you were on 'lemma' for instance, you wouldn't see the option.
This isn't exactly a typo. In the BHS SESB source files, all the kethiv forms are left unpointed, but there were supplemental files that provided additional information on many, but not all, of the Kethiv/Qere sets. I believe my predecessor pulled kethiv pointings from this supplemental material, which is why not all the kethiv forms are left unpointed. I'd have to dig around a bit to know exactly what was going on with this particular word - BHW marks this as a case where the print BHS has a Qere reading while the manuscript L does not, so that may be why this was analyzed as a K form in the main file, but not with a corresponding Q in the supplemental material. I'm speculating a bit. In any event, I'm more interested in seeing how the next generation of files tackle this than digging into the old files.

Not to diminish your diligence, Vincent -- in fact I think you inherited all these problems -- but it's times like this I appreciate a professor's advice to keep a hard copy of BHS handy. That alone tells me what is a typo, and what is not.
ֹHow I long for the day I can put the hard copy away! (Actually I could with some other software. The academic department at Logos should scope out the competition once in a while, read their own marketing material and do a reality check.)
Right now, assuming that Logos is my only software, I would still need to tote the behemoth of a BHS around.
Thanks for telling me about the "lemma" and "selection" options. That's something that escaped me before. But I shan't be reporting any typos anytime soon. I just need to keep telling myself: there are no typos.
