Hebrew Projects
18 March 2025
We currently have two Hebrew projects: the revision of the Delitzsch Hebrew New Testament (DHNT) and the digitisation of the Hebrew Masoretic Old Testament.
Delitzsch New Testament
Since 2009 we have been revising the Delitzsch Hebrew New Testament (DHNT). The Hebrew New Testament revision project aims to make the Delitzsch translation more faithful to the Greek Received Text and in a more understandable form of
Hebrew. After completing all checks and corrections, the New Testament was typeset and is currently being carefully checked. Additionally, a project to record an audio version has commenced through a partner organisation.
Masoretic Old Testament
Since 2015 we have been digitising the Hebrew Masoretic text. The progress has been slow due to various issues encountered and it has now stalled. We need someone with Hebrew to resume the project. The work includes consonantal corrections so as to match it to our published Ginsburg text.
The finished work is due to include the qere and ketiv marginal notes which provide helpful assistance to the Biblical Hebrew reader. In due time we hope to publish the Hebrew Masoretic Old Testament on our Online Bible App.
How to pray for the Hebrew projects
- For the proofreading of the typeset Hebrew New Testament, and its subsequent publication, distribution, and reception among Hebrew speakers.
- For the Lord to send someone highly skilled in Hebrew to assist us in digitising the Hebrew Masoretic text.
- Pray that both projects will be a blessing to those who speak and study Hebrew.
