Our innovative tool in Sefaria 2021 contest
A tool developed in the lab as part of the "Jewish Bookshelf Project" was selected as one of the "Honorable Mentions" in the Sefaria 2021 contest. From the contest's site: "An innovative tool that helps users search for sources by quotations. On selecting a set of verses, the site generates a list of texts that quote verses from the set. This tool provides an different way to quickly find relevant sources - sorting results by their relationship to a specific verse rather than topic or text."
A link to the tool - try it out!
