Here is a full list of Ketive/Qere differences in the WLC as represented by the OSHB text. Specifically, to get the following data I ran this command on the wlc.txt file:

grep -A 1 [0-9]k wlc.txt  >wlc_k-q.txt

The output is a file as listed below with 3,671 lines, with 3 lines for each occurrence:

  • the first line shows the Ketiv
  • the second line shows the Qere
  • the third line is a separator

This makes for 1,224 occurrences of Ketiv/Qere in the WLC text (not including the “Qere perpetuum”).

The file is formatted with the following tab separated columns:

  • Reference + Ketiv (k) or Qere (q) designation
  • Strong’s number
  • the form itself

Here is an excerpt:
