KTOT-8th release

KTOT has been updated with new articles, bringing the total to 93 articles available to help the Bible translation and consultant community. It provides current research on some of the most important key terms of the Old Testament, using minimal technical language. This tool is not a dictionary or lexicon, though it has some of those features and is formatted as a Source Language Dictionary in Paratext. KTOT provide extended discussions of the cultural background of these terms, some grammatical description, comparisons of similar and contrastive terms, descriptions of the history of the translation of the term, and translation suggestions.  

The KTOT-8 release will be incorporated into future Paratext updates, but for now it is available on the website: https://paratext.org/download/ktot/. Here is a list of the revised and new articles.
