Numbers 15

We are back to the chapters that are highly repetitive of words and word sequences. There is still some variation, but generally these next chapters of Torah are 55%-65% automatically glossed when I come to them. Psalms and Proverbs are different. It seems clear that Psalms and Proverbs provide a usage of the language that is not repetitive across other books perhaps because it is not 'descriptive' - either of chronicle or of regulation, so these two books give unique views of words.

It is good that I was very strict with my concordance rules when I began in the Psalms. I have both loosened my rules a bit - I allow myself more flexibility with alternative glosses, and also tightened them a bit - I follow Hebrew word order more explicitly sometimes. But exactly what would happen if I reworked a psalm from scratch I have not tested (to see how the computer algorithms would populate the glosses based on the rest of the chapters I have done). Maybe I will try that when I set up a test bed some day. I think I would find that even Psalm 78 rarely quoted other books directly. One expression I can think of is the phrase from Exodus 34:6, clearly referenced in several Psalms.

It alone would not help much though: Here are the allusions to Exodus 34:6 that I found with a test of pairs of words:
אף preceded by ארך, slow and anger.
5 in Proverbs,  3 in Psalms, one each in Isaiah, Jeremiah, Joel, Jonah, Nahum, Nehemiah, Numbers
רחום preceded by חנן, compassionate and gracious,
only two in Psalms.

וְנָֽתְנ֛וּ עַל־צִיצִ֥ת הַכָּנָ֖ף פְּתִ֥יל תְּכֵֽלֶת
38 Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them that they make for themselves tassels on the hems of their garments for their generations,
and let them position over the tassels of the hem a lace of amethyst.
3d 4C 32
14
וְהָיָ֣ה לָכֶם֮ לְצִיצִת֒ וּרְאִיתֶ֣ם אֹת֗וֹ וּזְכַרְתֶּם֙ אֶת־כָּל־מִצְוֺ֣ת יְהוָ֔ה וַעֲשִׂיתֶ֖ם אֹתָ֑ם

39 And it will be for you for tassels, and you will see it, and you will remember all the commandment of Yahweh, and you will do them,
and not explore after your heart and after your eyes that you play the harlot after them.
3e 4C 28
27
לְמַ֣עַן תִּזְכְּר֔וּ וַעֲשִׂיתֶ֖ם אֶת־כָּל־מִצְוֺתָ֑י
וִהְיִיתֶ֥ם קְדֹשִׁ֖ים לֵֽאלֹהֵיכֶֽם
