Randomly googled something in shibuley haleket last night and found that Google books had it and ocrd..

How can I search Google books for seforim? How much do they actually have?
Use it all the time, usually when I Google a quote it pops up. But you can search in Hebrew in books with nice results. The ocr is amazing, even for ancient Rashi prints

Using the sefaria app. It's truly amazing and probably what learning might look like in a few years...
The cross referencing feature is unbelievable.. like on the first posuk of vayishlach a yad Rama from baba Basra shows up...


I don't use English translations, but does anyone know if the translations that they do provide are othodox/traditional?

A quick read through this leads me to be skeptical.

it depends on the sefer. It's crowdsourced and there's a lot of amazing worksheets etc. but from what I've seen there is a fair number of hetrodox users and contributors. so double check translations and stuff.

The talmud is apparently steinsaltz translation.
But barring the translation, the user experience is just great.

The tanakh translation is reform

Since the API is open we can hope a frum version of a digital Torah will be available one day.

Is www.tanach.us a regular Tanach?

It says it uses the Westminster Leningrad codex. I have no idea what that is.

According to this https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leningrad_Codex

it says the JPS Tanach is made from this. Idk if that's any better

I’m pretty sure the Leningrad Codex is the oldest extant manuscript of the entire Hebrew Tanach.

don't know if that answers his question as to how closely that matches our mesora

Does anyone know if it's possible to find Encyclopedia Talmudis online? I would like to print off several pages.
