The page gives the verse in Hebrew as the Westminster Leningrad Codex has it, its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies, built from MACULA Hebrew — and its pragmatics: who acts — priests, glory, LORD — and what happens in the verse to house, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the English of the Jewish Publication Society's 1917 translation, each English sentence with a tree of its own. It is one of the 36 chapters of 2 Chronicles on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וְלֹ֤א יָֽכְלוּ֙ הַכֹּ֣הֲנִ֔ים לָב֖וֹא אֶל־בֵּ֣ית יְהוָ֑ה כִּֽי־מָלֵ֥א כְבוֹד־יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־בֵּ֥ית יְהוָֽה׃ [And the priests could not enter into the house of the LORD, because the glory of the LORD filled the LORD'S house.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/2CH.139/) ## The tree {#tree} Right to left, as the Hebrew is read; a prefix or suffix is a word of its own, and a line under the words joins those written as one. Under each word its part of speech and MACULA's English gloss. ```conllu rtl gloss # sent_id = wlc:2CH:131 # text = וְלֹ֤א יָֽכְלוּ֙ הַכֹּ֣הֲנִ֔ים לָב֖וֹא אֶל־בֵּ֣ית יְהוָ֑ה כִּֽי־מָלֵ֥א כְבוֹד־יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־בֵּ֥ית יְהוָֽה׃ # verse = 2CH.7.2 1-2 וְלֹ֤א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 3 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2CH_7:2!1|MId=o140070020011|Strong=2050b 2 לֹ֤א לֹא ADV _ _ 3 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=2CH_7:2!1|MId=o140070020012|Strong=3808|Type=negative 3 יָֽכְלוּ֙ יָכֹל VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.were.able|Ref=2CH_7:2!2|MId=o140070020021|Strong=3201|Frame=A0:140070020032;|Type=qatal 4-5 הַכֹּ֣הֲנִ֔ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 5 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2CH_7:2!3|MId=o140070020031|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 5 כֹּ֣הֲנִ֔ים כֹּהֵן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 3 nsubj _ Gloss=priests|Ref=2CH_7:2!3|MId=o140070020032|Strong=3548 6-7 לָב֖וֹא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 לָ לְ ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=2CH_7:2!4|MId=o140070020041|Strong=3807a 7 ב֖וֹא בּוֹא VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 3 xcomp _ Gloss=go|Ref=2CH_7:2!4|MId=o140070020042|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:140070020032;|Type=infinitive_construct 8 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=into|Ref=2CH_7:2!5|MId=o140070020051|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 9 בֵּ֣ית בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 7 obl _ Gloss=the.house|Ref=2CH_7:2!6|MId=o140070020061|Strong=1004 10 יְהוָ֑ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 9 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=2CH_7:2!7|MId=o140070020071|Strong=3068 11 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 12 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=2CH_7:2!8|MId=o140070020081|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 12 מָלֵ֥א מָלֵא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 3 advcl _ Gloss=it.filled|Ref=2CH_7:2!9|MId=o140070020091|Strong=4390|Frame=A0:140070020101;A1:140070020131;|Type=qatal 13 כְבוֹד־ כָּבוֹד NOUN _ Number=Sing 12 nsubj _ Gloss=the.glory|Ref=2CH_7:2!10|MId=o140070020101|Strong=3519|SpaceAfter=No 14 יְהוָ֖ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 13 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=2CH_7:2!11|MId=o140070020111|Strong=3068 15 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=2CH_7:2!12|MId=o140070020121|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 16 בֵּ֥ית בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 obj _ Gloss=the.house|Ref=2CH_7:2!13|MId=o140070020131|Strong=1004 17 יְהוָֽה יהוה PROPN _ _ 16 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=2CH_7:2!14|MId=o140070020141|Strong=3068|SpaceAfter=No 18 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 17 punct _ Ref=2CH_7:2!14 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | **not** יָֽכְלוּ *they were able* | qatal · qal | כֹּהֲנִים *priests* | | | | | בוֹא *go* | infinitive construct · qal | כֹּהֲנִים *priests* | | | | | מָלֵא *it filled* | qatal · qal | כְבוֹד־ *the glory* | בֵּית *the house* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
