A reader, Reinier de Blois, discovered a SIGNIFICANT error in the Unicode/XML Tanach at

http://users.ntplx.net/~kimball/Tanach/Tanach.xml.

The error converted a consonant bet in the final position into an alef throughout all books of the Tanach. Versions of the Unicode/XML Tanach with dates prior to 25 Feb 2004 should be destroyed.

A list of the changes is available at

http://users.ntplx.net/~kimball/Tanach/Tanach.Version.html.

The Tanach is free and may be freely distributed for any non-commercial purpose.

Often improvements introduce new problems. Your comments and suggestions will help me improve this resource and are sincerely appreciated.

Chris Kimball
