The Biblia Hebraica Quinta is the fifth edition of the Biblia Hebraica and when complete will supersede the fourth edition, the Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia (BHS).

Like the third and fourth editions, it uses a text based on the Leningrad Codex; the text has been corrected against colour photographs of the codex taken in the 1990s.

Unlike previous editions, it includes a commentary explaining the Masorah and discussing the significance of the textual variants in the footnotes. It also contains the Masorah magna, which was not in the first three versions and only available in a supplementary volume in BHS. Another change is that it rarely cites variants from Hebrew manuscripts collated by Benjamin Kennicott and C. D. Ginsburg; the editors, following the work of Moshe Goshen-Gottstein, believe that such variants are of little value.

The work is currently being published in fascicles:

  • The first fascicle (general introduction and Five megilloth) was published in 2004. The books are in the same order as in the Leningrad Codex and BHS, namely Ruth, Canticles, Qoheleth, Lamentations and Esther.
  • The second fascicle (Ezra and Nehemiah) was published in 2006.
  • The third fascicle (Deuteronomy) was published in 2007.
  • The fourth fascicle (Proverbs) was published in February 2009.
