Product Description
Hebrew Bible (Tanakh) is a complete Hebrew Bible in an aesthetically pleasing Hebrew script. It contains all of the consonants, vowels, cantillation marks (accents), and other symbols. It follows the text of the Leningrad Codex as digitized by the J. Alan Groves Center for Advanced Biblical Research. This is the same manuscript underlying Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia (BHS) and Biblia Hebraica Quinta (BHQ).
In addition, the Kindle version includes The Comprehensive Biblical Hebrew and Aramaic Glossary by Humphrey H. Hardy as an appendix.

Hebrew/JPS Parallel Bible for Kindle
Navigation
Most books that you read on the Kindle and the Nook are read linearly. That is, you read one page after the next. However, this is often not the case with the Bible, so we have provided a variety of techniques for you to be able to navigate efficiently and effectively. Both the Kindle version and the Nook version provide you with fully interactive tables of contents from which you select the book of the Bible and then the chapter within that book. They both allow you to navigate to a particular chapter by searching for the book name and chapter (e.g. “Genesis 12”). They also both provide ways in which you can quickly type in a precise verse to which to navigate (e.g. “ge 12 3” for Genesis 12:3). The details differ between the two platforms, but you can read more detail on how to navigate the Kindle Hebrew Bible and how to navigate the Nook Hebrew Bible.
Reviews
“One could not ask for a more visually pleasing text from which to read the Hebrew Bible. … This offering provides a giant leap forward for eReaders and a must have for everyone from the casual student to the serious scholar.” –DailyHebrew.com
“…the text in both [the Kindle and Nook] versions looks as professional as the type in my hardcopy Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia. …the final result is impressive…. The Hebrew Bible for Kindle and Nook includes a fairly sophisticated navigation system—one that is more feature rich than most eReader titles.” –ThisLamp.com
