I have a question in regards to putting Hebrew words in alphabetical order.

I assume that ordering the words according to the letters would be the
first step, but how do you handle the points (dagesh and vowel)?

What is the ordering criteria when you have two or more words with the
same letters, but different points?

So, for example, if you have the words:
)FBAL
)FB"L
)"BEL
):ABFL

Or if you have:
)FDAM
)FDFM
)FDOM
):EDOM
)ODEM

How would they be alphabetized?


Look at www.oham.net/out/N-t.html
You will find the right vowel and other points order stated by the Academy of the Hebrew Language.
