It depends, Chee, on whether the BHQ volume for the book you are doing your research on has been issued yet. But I know some scholars prefer (or preferred) to work from BHK (the edition before BHS) - it had more textual variants, I believe. BHS bought the Dead Sea Scroll readings. Presumably BHQ will have improved on that as more work has been done the DSS. But only a few books have been published yet.

Where are you doing your research?

Dear all, 

 

I am recently doing research in MT, and has been informed that BHQ is better than BHS. Is it time to replace BHS by BHQ as the researched version? will appreciate if any one here can share me your opinion. Thanks.
