Example Workflows#

Analyze a Hebrew word across the Bible#

Tool call — macula_hebrew_search_lemma:

json

{ "lemma": "חֶסֶד", "limit": 20 }

Or via analytics_query (SQL):

sql

SELECT book_id, COUNT(*) as uses
FROM hebrew.morphemes
WHERE lemma = 'חֶסֶד'
GROUP BY book_id
ORDER BY uses DESC

Compare Greek NT with Septuagint#

Tool call — analytics_query (SQL):

sql

SELECT g.lemma, g.gloss, COUNT(*) as nt_uses,
  (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM lxx.morphemes l WHERE l.lemma = g.lemma) as lxx_uses
FROM greek.morphemes g
WHERE g.book_id = 'John' AND g.chapter = 1
GROUP BY g.lemma, g.gloss
ORDER BY nt_uses DESC
LIMIT 15

Cross-reference morphology with lexicon#

Tool call — analytics_query (SQL):

sql

SELECT g.text, g.lemma, g.gloss, l.definition_text
FROM greek.morphemes g
LEFT JOIN lsj.entries l ON g.lemma = l.headword
WHERE g.book_id = 'Rom' AND g.chapter = 8 AND g.verse = 28
ORDER BY g.word_position
