I'll bet that neither Scribus nor TeX can justify Hebrew the way it's 
supposed to be for a proper Sefer Torah: when a verse ends in the middle 
of the line, and the next one's supposed to start on a new line (Some 
do, some don't and I don't happen to know the rule.) you don't adjust 
the spacing between the words, you stretch the last letter of the last 
word out to fill the extra space:
