The Semantics of Ancient Hebrew Database project aims to provide a structured and critical survey of scholarly literature on the vocabulary of classical Hebrew. As it grows, it will offer an in-depth resource to complement traditional dictionaries, and also provide pointers to further research. This international, cooperative project involves a growing number of research centres with coordination provided by Amsterdam.
Read the foundational description of the project (1994); or see the data structure for lexeme entries.
The currently participating centres include the following universities: Amsterdam, Bonn, Cambridge, Edinburgh, Florence, Oxford, Leiden, Rome.
