Randy,

Thanks for this long post. Well worth reading.

I spent my first hour of study today using the time honored methods in Zech
11 (LXX) and after about five or six irregular forms of very obscure words
in as many verses (LEH does not help you with these!) I am now breaking down
and using the computer for a while. A tool of last resort.

I think that BibleWorks and Accordance are wonderful analysis tools for
doing research. For general reading I think they should be avoided.

thanks again,

Clay
