Method: KJV wording is displayed as the site translation. Public Hebrew links use the reviewed CrossWire KJV source-span alignment; Hebrew surface forms and morphology come from STEP Bible TAHOT. Translation alignment, lexical identity, and morphology are stored as separate data layers. Ambiguous alignments remain plain text rather than being guessed.
