Zereth Codes

Author: Tadeusz Daniel Janikowski

This site presents the Zereth Codes, a novel system for encoding every single word in the original biblical texts (Nestle 1904 for the New Testament and the Leningrad Codex for the Old Testament). Unlike Strong’s Concordance, which assigns a common identifier to all occurrences of the same root, the Zereth system assigns a unique four-character alphanumeric code to each individual word. This allows precise tracking of meaning, context, and translation choices across different languages.

Applications of the Zereth Codes: Bible translation, ensuring consistency and precision across languages. Comparative linguistics, mapping meaning shifts between Greek/Hebrew and modern languages. Potential for APIs, search engines, and interlinear Bible software. Unique IDs help compare manuscripts and variants. References: Strong, James.
