The Tanach, with the evidence built in
This is the complete Hebrew Bible in the Jewish Publication Society translation. Wherever a real archaeological find bears on the text, those words are underlined in gold✦. Hover over them or tap them to see the artifact and what it confirms. From there, Next find takes you to the next underline, so you can tour a whole book’s evidence, and the share button turns the verse into an image.
Each chapter lists its finds under its title, and the chapter picker shows how many finds every book and chapter has. The AA button sets the text size, light or dark, and English, Hebrew, or the two together.
Psalm 129
1A song of ascents.Since my youth they have often assailed me,let Israel now declare,
2since my youth they have often assailed me,but they have never overcome me.
3Plowmen plowed across my back;they made long furrows.
4The LORD, the righteous one,has snapped the cords of the wicked.
5Let all who hate Zionfall back in disgrace.
6Let them be like grass on roofsthat fades before it can be pulled up,
7that affords no handful for the reaper,no armful for the gatherer of sheaves,
8no exchange with passersby:“The blessing of the LORD be upon you.”“We bless you by the name of the LORD.”
