BUG: Hebrew word not connected correctly to dictionaries

In the Lexham Hebrew Bible (LHB), if you double-click on the word for "leprosy" [tzara'at] it takes you to TWOT, DBL Hebrew, or BDB word 1898B [mesura] "stronghold." The Biblica Hebraica Stuttgartensia goes to the word for leprosy in the dictionaries. The problem seems to be with coding in the LHB, not the dictionaries.

This has also been reported as a typo.

I'm not seeing this and I have an 'old' version LLS:LHB, 2017-04-07T17:47:43Z. It goes to TWOT 1971a.

Hmmm. I tried several instances of "leprosy" to make sure it was repeatable for my setup--all went to the same wrong word in each of my dictionaries.

Is it the same version as mine? You could hide/unhide LHB to force a download of another copy.

Hid LHB
Unhid LHB
Repeated steps--still goes to wrong Hebrew definition as before.

Thanks for the suggestion, Dave. [shrug]

Jack:

I have tried to reproduce this, but I'm getting the same results as Dave Hooton (i.e. double-click jumps to the correct entries in the Hebrew lexicons mentioned).

Please check the resource version of your LHB. Do this by clicking the circled i in the upper right corner of the resource panel.

Then scroll to the bottom to find the Support Info. Copy and paste that text here.

Thanks. Hope we can help you figure this out quickly!

Isaiah.

Thanks for jumping on this, Isaiah. Here's my info. It appears to match yours exactly.

Interesting. What happens when you run a Power Lookup on the lemma in question? Here's mine:

Jack:

We managed to identify the problem linking. It seems that there is bad keylinking data on the words that have the Hebrew verb lemma צרע, but only for the TWOT (as far as we can tell).

We'll get this fixed in the resource and ship that out as soon as possible.

Thanks again for letting us know about this and being patient while we figured it out.

Isaiah.

Thanks for the fast fix, Isaiah.

Bad links are so easy to make, but so hard to find and squash.

While you're at it, please check the link between LHB and TWOT for Exodus 13:9 where the Hebrew word for "forehead" is linked to TWOT word:

884a יָעֵן (yāʿēn) ostrich (only in Lam 4:3).

instead of properly linking the word for "eyes."

I've tried to reproduce this, but it does not fail -- on my end -- to go to the correct entry (1612a in TWOT). This bears out in close inspection of the link data itself, where the only words that link to TWOT 884a are the three occurring in Lam 4:3.

Perhaps the updated resource will give you the correct results when it ships on Monday? I hope so.

Thanks for bringing this issue to our attention.

Just received the update and checked the connection between LHB (Lexham Hebrew Bible) and TWOT for "leprosy." It's fixed.

Thanks for the fast action.
