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 — Saul, clothes — and what happens in the verse to clothes, 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 31 chapters of 1 Samuel on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַיִּפְשַׁ֨ט גַּם־ה֜וּא בְּגָדָ֗יו וַיִּתְנַבֵּ֤א גַם־הוּא֙ לִפְנֵ֣י שְׁמוּאֵ֔ל וַיִּפֹּ֣ל עָרֹ֔ם כָּל־הַיּ֥וֹם הַה֖וּא וְכָל־הַלָּ֑יְלָה עַל־כֵּן֙ יֹֽאמְר֔וּ הֲגַ֥ם שָׁא֖וּל בַּנְּבִיאִֽם׃פ [And he also stripped off his clothes, and he also prophesied before Samuel, and lay down naked all that day and all that night.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/1SA.574/) [Wherefore they say: 'Is Saul also among the prophets?'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/1SA.575/) ## 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:1SA:517 # text = וַיִּפְשַׁ֨ט גַּם־ה֜וּא בְּגָדָ֗יו וַיִּתְנַבֵּ֤א גַם־הוּא֙ לִפְנֵ֣י שְׁמוּאֵ֔ל וַיִּפֹּ֣ל עָרֹ֔ם כָּל־הַיּ֥וֹם הַה֖וּא וְכָל־הַלָּ֑יְלָה עַל־כֵּן֙ יֹֽאמְר֔וּ הֲגַ֥ם שָׁא֖וּל בַּנְּבִיאִֽם׃פ # verse = 1SA.19.24 1-2 וַיִּפְשַׁ֨ט _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_19:24!1|MId=o090190240011|Strong=2050b 2 יִּפְשַׁ֨ט פָּשַׁט VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.stripped.off|Ref=1SA_19:24!1|MId=o090190240012|Strong=6584|Frame=A0:090190240031;A1:090190240041;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 גַּם־ גַּם ADV _ _ 4 advmod _ Gloss=also|Ref=1SA_19:24!2|MId=o090190240021|Strong=1571|Type=affirmation|SpaceAfter=No 4 ה֜וּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 2 nsubj _ Gloss=he|Ref=1SA_19:24!3|MId=o090190240031|Strong=1931|Type=personal 5-6 בְּגָדָ֗יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 בְּגָדָ֗י בֶּגֶד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 obj _ Gloss=clothes|Ref=1SA_19:24!4|MId=o090190240041|Strong=0899 6 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 5 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=1SA_19:24!4|MId=o090190240042|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 7-8 וַיִּתְנַבֵּ֤א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_19:24!5|MId=o090190240051|Strong=2050b 8 יִּתְנַבֵּ֤א נָבָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HITHPAEL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.prophesied|Ref=1SA_19:24!5|MId=o090190240052|Strong=5012|Frame=A0:090190240071;|Type=wayyiqtol 9 גַם־ גַּם ADV _ _ 10 advmod _ Gloss=also|Ref=1SA_19:24!6|MId=o090190240061|Strong=1571|SpaceAfter=No 10 הוּא֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 8 nsubj _ Gloss=he|Ref=1SA_19:24!7|MId=o090190240071|Strong=1931|Type=personal 11-12 לִפְנֵ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=before|Ref=1SA_19:24!8|MId=o090190240081|Strong=3807a 12 פְנֵ֣י פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 8 obl _ Gloss=|Ref=1SA_19:24!8|MId=o090190240082|Strong=6440 13 שְׁמוּאֵ֔ל שְׁמוּאֵל PROPN _ _ 12 compound:smixut _ Gloss=Samuel|Ref=1SA_19:24!9|MId=o090190240091|Strong=8050 14-15 וַיִּפֹּ֣ל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 15 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_19:24!10|MId=o090190240101|Strong=2050b 15 יִּפֹּ֣ל נָפַל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.fell.down|Ref=1SA_19:24!10|MId=o090190240102|Strong=5307|Frame=A0:090190210101;|Type=wayyiqtol 16 עָרֹ֔ם עָרוֹם ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 15 advmod _ Gloss=naked|Ref=1SA_19:24!11|MId=o090190240111|Strong=6174|Type=adjective 17 כָּל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 15 obl _ Gloss=all|Ref=1SA_19:24!12|MId=o090190240121|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 18-19 הַיּ֥וֹם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 19 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=1SA_19:24!13|MId=o090190240131|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 19 יּ֥וֹם יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 compound:smixut _ Gloss=day|Ref=1SA_19:24!13|MId=o090190240132|Strong=3117 20-21 הַה֖וּא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 21 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=1SA_19:24!14|MId=o090190240141|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 21 ה֖וּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 19 det _ Gloss=that|Ref=1SA_19:24!14|MId=o090190240142|Strong=1931|Type=personal 22-23 וְכָל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 23 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_19:24!15|MId=o090190240151|Strong=2050b 23 כָל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 conj _ Gloss=all|Ref=1SA_19:24!15|MId=o090190240152|Strong=3605 24-25 הַלָּ֑יְלָה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 25 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=1SA_19:24!16|MId=o090190240161|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 25 לָּ֑יְלָה לַיְלָה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 23 compound:smixut _ Gloss=night|Ref=1SA_19:24!16|MId=o090190240162|Strong=3915 26 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 27 case _ Gloss=therefore|Ref=1SA_19:24!17|MId=o090190240171|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 27 כֵּן֙ כֵּן ADV _ _ 2 conj _ Gloss=|Ref=1SA_19:24!18|MId=o090190240181|Strong=3651|Type=demonstrative 28 יֹֽאמְר֔וּ אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 parataxis _ Gloss=people.say|Ref=1SA_19:24!19|MId=o090190240191|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:;|Type=yiqtol 29-30 הֲגַ֥ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 29 הֲ הֲ PART _ _ 34 advmod _ Gloss=?|Ref=1SA_19:24!20|MId=o090190240201|Strong=1886b|Type=interrogative 30 גַ֥ם גַּם ADV _ _ 31 advmod _ Gloss=also|Ref=1SA_19:24!20|MId=o090190240202|Strong=1571 31 שָׁא֖וּל שָׁאוּל PROPN _ _ 34 nsubj _ Gloss=[is].Saul|Ref=1SA_19:24!21|MId=o090190240211|Strong=7586 32-34 בַּנְּבִיאִֽם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 32 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 34 case _ Gloss=among|Ref=1SA_19:24!22|MId=o090190240221|Strong=0871a 33 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 34 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=1SA_19:24!22|MId=o090190240221ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 34 נְּבִיאִֽם נָבִיא NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 28 ccomp _ Gloss=prophets|Ref=1SA_19:24!22|MId=o090190240222|Strong=5030 35 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 34 punct _ Ref=1SA_19:24!22|SpaceAfter=No 36 פ פ PUNCT _ _ 34 punct _ Ref=1SA_19:24!22 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
