Introducing Software For running Torah Trope clause/phrase searches

There are times when one might want to find Trope/accent patterns (or clause / phrases ) in the Hebrew Bible. To do so sometimes printed works such as  James D. Price’s multivolume Concordance of the Hebrew Accents in the Hebrew Bible are use. Such tools tend to be expensive and hard to find unless you happen to live near a very good library. fortunately, there are few software programs that allow one to run precisely those type of searches.

(1) Quantified Cantillation (It’s free!):  

Is a free, to use online cantillation/Torah accent database with an intuitive graphic user interface. All, searches are executed both visually and via a click of your computer’s mouse. Currently,  the database only covers the Pentateuch / Torah.   https://quantifiedcantillation.nl/

(2) Accordance Bible Software (It’s intuitive, easy to use, and powerful!):  

If you own a license for Accordance and one of the Hebrew Bible modules sold on their website you can search for individual accents, accent patterns (Trope patterns), words with a particular accent, morphology, root,wildcards + accents, and so much more. Accordance allows one to do so either by typing in a search window or  visually through the construct search window selecting accents via the character palette via a click of the mouse. https://www.accordancebible.com/

(3) BibleWords (It is powerful!)      

When you purchases a license for BibleWorks you get 90% of all the modules they offer. So, the base product already comes with enough for you to start searching on accents and accent patterns. In Bible works you search either by typing codes/tags on the command line or through the use of the powerful graphic search engine. However, you will still need to type in the codes to run your searches. http://www.bibleworks.com/   

If, by any chance, you are aware of software for search on the Torah trope that I have overlooked or missed please leave a comment here or on the contact page.
