How do I get rid of the Masoretic markings?

I need to present an unpointed Hebrew text for a project that I am working on, and would rather not have to type the whole passage out, esp. if I can copy and paste it.  Does anyone know how to do this or if can Logos make this happen in the future(providing it is currently possible)?

 

Thanks

Adam

    If you have The Parallel Aligned Hebrew-Aramaic and Greek Texts of Jewish Scripture (aka, LXX/MT Parallel), it has unpointed text.  You can turn off all the extra interlinear lines except for the Masoretic text, then copy what you want.  That resource does insert some backslashes (\) into the Hebrew words, but you can use a search and replace to remove those.  Examples:

    LXX/MT Parallel:

    ב‍\ראשׁית ברא אלהים את ה‍\שׁמים ו‍\את ה‍\ארץ 

    LXX/MT Parallel (with backslashes removed):



    ב‍ראשׁית ברא אלהים את ה‍שׁמים ו‍את ה‍ארץ 



    BHS:



     בְּרֵאשִׁ֖ית בָּרָ֣א אֱלֹהִ֑ים אֵ֥ת הַשָּׁמַ֖יִם וְאֵ֥ת הָאָֽרֶץ׃

    Thanks, Todd.  Sadly, I don't have that resource.  One of the handful of titles that make me want to upgrade from the Silver to the Gold.  So is there any other work around that you know of?

    Sorry I don't know of any.  Perhaps that's a good suggestion to request of Logos.

    You could use a web resource.  This one has unpointed text: http://www.ccel.org/a/anonymous/hebrewot/home.html
