Hi,

This message isn't so much a bug as a simple statement of fact. What the
morphology display feature does is try to open a dictionary which lists all
of the morphology and what they mean. However, while in the KJV New
Testament you will find that this links to the "Robinson" dictionary, to
the best of my knowledge there exists no similar dictionary for the Hebrew
morphology. Unfortunately, as a result we cannot link to one.

Where are the morphological numbers in the OT coming from -- what's
producing the numbers in the text? If I find a public domain dictionary
with the morphological dictionary can we convert and link it?

I did look into that. The codes seem to have come from the Bible
Foundation, and it's not really known what their source was. In March
someone looked into trying to find out what the numbers mean, but no
changes to the KJV module or morphology dictionary came about as a result.
Until that happens, I don't think we can do anything on this. I personally
have no knowledge of Hebrew and so can only wait and see.
