[jsword-devel] Confused again

[Jacky Cheung]

Hi,

I am confused by specification again. I have compared GBF and OSIS data 
of Gen 1:1. Here is the data:
GBF:
In the beginning<WH07225> God<WH0430> created<WH01254><WTH8804><WH0853> 
the heaven<WH08064> and<WH0850> the earth<WH0776>.

OSIS:
<verse osisID="Gen.1.1"> <w lemma="x-Strongs:H07225">In the 
beginning</w> <w lemma="x-Strongs:H0430">God</w> <w 
morph="x-StrongsMorph:TH8804" 
lemma="x-Strongs:H0853|x-Strongs:H01254">created</w> <w 
lemma="x-Strongs:H08064">the heaven</w> <w 
lemma="x-Strongs:H0853">and</w> <w lemma="x-Strongs:H0776">the 
earth</w>.</verse>

 From OSIS, it seems that H07225 refers to "In the beginning". However, 
from the specification of GBF, it is the "Ordinal number of Hebrew 
lexicon entry for previous word", and therefore, "beginning". According 
to BDB and Strong's Hebrew Dictionary, H07225 should refer to 
"beginning". It seems that the transaction to OSIS is wrong. However, 
the translation was done by the program from www.bibletechnologies.com.

Did I misunderstand something? What's the correct translation?  Thanks.
