Who Can Benefit from This Product?
The short answer is: anyone involved in the task of interpreting scripture. Before an exegete can translate or interpret a passage, the exact wording of the passage must be determined. The process of attempting to select the original text from a diverse number of variant readings is called "textual criticism." The critical apparatuses to the Bibles in SESB provide the tools for doing this important task.
More information on textual criticism and its role in Bible interpretation can be found in the following Libronix books:
More information on the text critical process used to determine the text of the NA/UBS Greek text can be found in the following commentary:
The custom search tools for the SESB edition of the BHS and the Lemma Search tool (which will work with all lemmatized bibles; see screenshots below) also increase the functionality of Libronix for working with Greek and Hebrew.
We have made available an overview of critical apparatuses: what they're good for and how they're used.
