The Tagged Tanakh is a collaborative platform spearheaded by JPS, that joins vetted content and user-generated commentary around the Jewish Bible. The words of the Torah create the foundation of this dynamic database. These words can be cross-referenced, annotated, and connected-tagged-to other forms of media, including videos, maps or games. Individual words or chunks of text can serve as stepping-stones for conversations that can cross educational and technological boundaries.
