It’s Coming……ParseHebrew for iOS!
Hello to all the readers of my well maintained and proliferous blog! I’m happy to announce the imminent arrival of ParseHebrew, a parsing app for biblical Hebrew students. Most of you know and use my app ParseGreek. It is one of the most popular apps for Biblical Greek students on the market. After first publishing ParseGreek many years ago, I had it in mind to start working towards Biblical Hebrew equivalents. But with the busyness of life, the progress was much slower. It became a project that I slowly poked away at over many, many years.
With all of that said, I’m really happy to announce that the release of ParseHebrew for iOS is imminent (i.e. by end of summer at the latest). It will be very similar in look and feel to ParseGreek. Just like ParseGreek, I’ve designed it to be compatible with some of today’s top intro grammars:

Check out the ParseHebrew page for some more details, and I’ll announce its release on the blog when the time comes.
The inevitable question will arise asking about an Android version. My sincere hope is to release the Android version early in 2025, but this depends on $$. It costs a significant amount to get the coding done for apps, so it will take some time for me to save up for its creation.
