References to Miqra According to the Masorah (MAM) in these changes are to the Sefaria MAM available when the change was entered. This version can be viewed via the Links list on any book page. The Sefaria MAM is not as up-to-date as the Hebrew Wikisource Miqra According to the Masorah, however.
References to BHL in these changes are to Aron Dotan's Biblia Hebraica Leningradensia, 2001. The body text (BHL) represents Dotan's eclectic understanding of the Masorah; BHL Appendix A contains his detailed notes about the LC text itself. BHL Appendix A influences, but does not determine, the UXLC transcription. Extracts from the BHL Foreword are available in the Supplements area.
References to Breuer-DM in these changes are to the sections titled "The Text and its Sources" (הנוסח ומקורותיו) in various volumes of the Da'at Miqra (דעת מקרא) series published by Mosad HaRav Kook.

| Unicode | he patah shin shin-dot hiriq bet dagesh hataf-qamats lamed hiriq munah yod final-mem |
| The patah on the he was a result of a change in change file 2021.04.01 - Changes at 2021.02.22 - 12 from the original condition in which the previous vowel was a qamats. The dot of the putative qamats is reddish and slightly oversized. The text in this region does not have many extraneous dots, however. Examining the qamats on the adjacent lines shows that the dot of the putative qamats is spaced at a greater distance from the bar of the qamats than in the adjacent lines. This is particularly true of the qamats preceding/following the putative qamats. Dotan in BHLA also sees the vowel as a qamats, but has a patah in his body text, BHL. Ben Denckla argues convincingly that Dotan did not have access to color images of the text. Retain the patah as the vowel on the he and add a transcription note 't'. BHL has a patah on the he. BHLA has a qamats on the he. |

| The presence of both a dehi and a revia on a word is unexpected but occurs 3 times in the UXLC. The hiriq on the lamed is light; however, the current page has few erroneous dots. Other instances are Ps 89:29.1 and Job 11:13.2. BHL has a dehi on the lamed, but no revia on the bet. BHLA has a dehi on the lamed and a revia on the bet. |
