The lexical and morphological data behind every Greek and Hebrew word Derekh cites is sourced from STEPBible (Scripture Tools for Every Person), the free open biblical data project published by Tyndale House Cambridge under an open license (CC BY 4.0). The same data underlies Logos Bible Software, Accordance, Olive Tree, Blue Letter Bible, Bible Hub, and the major translation projects (Wycliffe, SIL International). STEPBible is the standard among working translators, pastors, and biblical scholars for word-level reference work.
TAHOT. Translators’ Amalgamated Hebrew Old Testament. The full Hebrew Bible (based on the Leningrad Codex) with every word tagged for its Strong’s number, lemma (dictionary form), and morphology. When a Derekh record says “Hesed (חֶסֶד)” in Psalm 23:6, TAHOT is what tells us which Strong’s number that word actually carries in that verse.
TAGNT. Translators’ Amalgamated Greek New Testament. The same, for the Greek New Testament (based on the standard critical text, NA28 / UBS5).
TBESH. Translators’ Brief Lexicon of Extended Strong’s for Hebrew. The Hebrew lexicon entries (lemma, gloss, pronunciation) shown in the popover when you tap an italicized Hebrew term.
TBESG. Translators’ Brief Lexicon of Extended Strong’s for Greek. The same, for Greek.
Strong’s numbers are the 19th-century concordance system created by James Strong: a unique number for every Hebrew and Greek root in the Bible. Strong’s has been the universal cross-reference standard for biblical word studies for over a century. Every major Bible study tool (Logos, Accordance, Bible Hub, Blue Letter Bible, STEPBible) uses Strong’s as the linking key.
For the small set of unresolved edge cases that the audit flagged for deeper review, the Brown-Driver-Briggs Hebrew and English Lexicon of the Old Testament was used. BDB is the 1906 scholarly Hebrew lexicon still cited in modern academic biblical studies (HarperCollins Study Bible, New Oxford Annotated Bible, peer-reviewed journals).
Derekh’s lexicon entries include source attribution inline, with links to external source pages so any citation can be checked at its source. STEPBible content is used under CC BY 4.0 and credited to Tyndale House Cambridge.
