Most modern readers of the print Hebrew Bible read the Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia (BHS) published by the German Bible Society.1 This text is freely accessible to read online. The web also offers several resources for students and scholars who wish to move behind this modern document and back to the ancient textual and manuscript traditions. Both seasoned and beginning students of JB/OT textual criticism will gain great benefit from Jim Darlack’s bibliography of print resources and Emanuel Tov’s bibliography of computer software and web-based electronic resources,2 as well as from the crowd-sourced advice available through the OTTC: A Blog for Old Testament Textual Criticism.
