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 — king, that, Solomon — and what happens in the verse to Gibeon, great high place, thousand burnt offerings, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of Targum Jonathan and the English of the Jewish Publication Society's 1917 translation, each English sentence with a tree of its own. It is one of the 22 chapters of 1 Kings on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַיֵּ֨לֶךְ הַמֶּ֤לֶךְ גִּבְעֹ֙נָה֙ לִזְבֹּ֣חַ שָׁ֔ם כִּ֥י הִ֖יא הַבָּמָ֣ה הַגְּדוֹלָ֑ה אֶ֤לֶף עֹלוֹת֙ יַעֲלֶ֣ה שְׁלֹמֹ֔ה עַ֖ל הַמִּזְבֵּ֥חַ הַהֽוּא׃ [And the king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there; for that was the great high place; a thousand burnt-offerings did Solomon offer upon that altar.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/1KI.112/) ## 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:1KI:102 # text = וַיֵּ֨לֶךְ הַמֶּ֤לֶךְ גִּבְעֹ֙נָה֙ לִזְבֹּ֣חַ שָׁ֔ם כִּ֥י הִ֖יא הַבָּמָ֣ה הַגְּדוֹלָ֑ה אֶ֤לֶף עֹלוֹת֙ יַעֲלֶ֣ה שְׁלֹמֹ֔ה עַ֖ל הַמִּזְבֵּ֥חַ הַהֽוּא׃ # verse = 1KI.3.4 1-2 וַיֵּ֨לֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1KI_3:4!1|MId=o110030040011|Strong=2050b 2 יֵּ֨לֶךְ הלך VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.went|Ref=1KI_3:4!1|MId=o110030040012|Strong=1980|Frame=A0:110030040022;|Type=wayyiqtol 3-4 הַמֶּ֤לֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 4 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=1KI_3:4!2|MId=o110030040021|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 4 מֶּ֤לֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=king|Ref=1KI_3:4!2|MId=o110030040022|Strong=4428 5-6 גִּבְעֹ֙נָה֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 גִּבְעֹ֙נ גִּבְעוֹן PROPN _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=to|Ref=1KI_3:4!3|MId=o110030040031|Strong=1391 6 ָה֙ ה X _ _ 5 nmod _ Gloss=Gibeon|Ref=1KI_3:4!3|MId=o110030040032|Strong=1886c|Type=directional_he 7-8 לִזְבֹּ֣חַ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=1KI_3:4!4|MId=o110030040041|Strong=3807a 8 זְבֹּ֣חַ זָבַח VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 2 advcl _ Gloss=sacrifice|Ref=1KI_3:4!4|MId=o110030040042|Strong=2076|Frame=A0:110030040022;|Type=infinitive_construct 9 שָׁ֔ם שָׁם ADV _ _ 8 advmod _ Gloss=there|Ref=1KI_3:4!5|MId=o110030040051|Strong=8033 10 כִּ֥י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 13 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=1KI_3:4!6|MId=o110030040061|Strong=3588 11 הִ֖יא הִיא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 13 nsubj _ Gloss=that|Ref=1KI_3:4!7|MId=o110030040071|Strong=1931a|Type=personal 12-13 הַבָּמָ֣ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 13 det _ Gloss=[was].the|Ref=1KI_3:4!8|MId=o110030040081|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 13 בָּמָ֣ה בָּמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 2 advcl _ Gloss=high.place|Ref=1KI_3:4!8|MId=o110030040082|Strong=1116 14-15 הַגְּדוֹלָ֑ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 15 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=1KI_3:4!9|MId=o110030040091|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 15 גְּדוֹלָ֑ה גָּדוֹל ADJ _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 13 amod _ Gloss=great|Ref=1KI_3:4!9|MId=o110030040092|Strong=1419|Type=adjective 16 אֶ֤לֶף אֶלֶף NUM _ Number=Sing 17 nummod _ Gloss=a.thousand|Ref=1KI_3:4!10|MId=o110030040101|Strong=0505|Type=cardinal_number 17 עֹלוֹת֙ עֹלָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 18 obj _ Gloss=burnt.offerings|Ref=1KI_3:4!11|MId=o110030040111|Strong=5930 18 יַעֲלֶ֣ה עָלָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 parataxis _ Gloss=he.offered.up|Ref=1KI_3:4!12|MId=o110030040121|Strong=5927|Frame=A0:110030040111;AA:110030040131;|Type=yiqtol 19 שְׁלֹמֹ֔ה שְׁלֹמֹה PROPN _ _ 18 nsubj _ Gloss=Solomon|Ref=1KI_3:4!13|MId=o110030040131|Strong=8010 20 עַ֖ל עַל ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=1KI_3:4!14|MId=o110030040141|Strong=5921 21-22 הַמִּזְבֵּ֥חַ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 22 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=1KI_3:4!15|MId=o110030040151|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 22 מִּזְבֵּ֥חַ מִזְבֵּחַ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 18 obl _ Gloss=altar|Ref=1KI_3:4!15|MId=o110030040152|Strong=4196 23-24 הַהֽוּא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 24 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=1KI_3:4!16|MId=o110030040161|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 24 הֽוּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 22 det _ Gloss=that|Ref=1KI_3:4!16|MId=o110030040162|Strong=1931|Type=personal 25 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 24 punct _ Ref=1KI_3:4!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: narrate - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יֵּלֶךְ *he went* | wayyiqtol · qal | מֶּלֶךְ *king* | | | | | זְבֹּחַ *sacrifice* | infinitive construct · qal | מֶּלֶךְ *king* | | | | | יַעֲלֶה *he offered up* | yiqtol · hiphil | עֹלוֹת *burnt offerings* | | | שְׁלֹמֹה *Solomon* | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
