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 — man, LORD, I, men — and what happens in the verse to Myself, Egypt, 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. וַיָּבֹ֥א אִישׁ־אֱלֹהִ֖ים אֶל־עֵלִ֑י וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֵלָ֗יו כֹּ֚ה אָמַ֣ר יְהוָ֔ה הֲנִגְלֹ֤ה נִגְלֵ֙יתִי֙ אֶל־בֵּ֣ית אָבִ֔יךָ בִּֽהְיוֹתָ֥ם בְּמִצְרַ֖יִם לְבֵ֥ית פַּרְעֹֽה׃ [And there came a man of God unto Eli, and said unto him: 'Thus saith the LORD: Did I reveal Myself unto the house of thy father, when they were in Egypt in bondage to Pharaoh's house?](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/1SA.58/) ## 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:54 # text = וַיָּבֹ֥א אִישׁ־אֱלֹהִ֖ים אֶל־עֵלִ֑י וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֵלָ֗יו כֹּ֚ה אָמַ֣ר יְהוָ֔ה הֲנִגְלֹ֤ה נִגְלֵ֙יתִי֙ אֶל־בֵּ֣ית אָבִ֔יךָ בִּֽהְיוֹתָ֥ם בְּמִצְרַ֖יִם לְבֵ֥ית פַּרְעֹֽה׃ # verse = 1SA.2.27 1-2 וַיָּבֹ֥א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_2:27!1|MId=o090020270011|Strong=2050b 2 יָּבֹ֥א בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.came|Ref=1SA_2:27!1|MId=o090020270012|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:090020270021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 אִישׁ־ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=a.man|Ref=1SA_2:27!2|MId=o090020270021|Strong=0376|SpaceAfter=No 4 אֱלֹהִ֖ים אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.God|Ref=1SA_2:27!3|MId=o090020270031|Strong=0430 5 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=1SA_2:27!4|MId=o090020270041|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 6 עֵלִ֑י עֵלִי PROPN _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=Eli|Ref=1SA_2:27!5|MId=o090020270051|Strong=5941 7-8 וַיֹּ֣אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_2:27!6|MId=o090020270061|Strong=2050b 8 יֹּ֣אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=1SA_2:27!6|MId=o090020270062|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:090020270021;|Type=wayyiqtol 9-10 אֵלָ֗יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 אֵלָ֗י אֶל ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=1SA_2:27!7|MId=o090020270071|Strong=0413 10 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 8 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=1SA_2:27!7|MId=o090020270072|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 11 כֹּ֚ה כֹּה ADV _ _ 12 advmod _ Gloss=thus|Ref=1SA_2:27!8|MId=o090020270081|Strong=3541 12 אָמַ֣ר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 8 ccomp _ Gloss=he.says|Ref=1SA_2:27!9|MId=o090020270091|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:090020270101;|Type=qatal 13 יְהוָ֔ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 12 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=1SA_2:27!10|MId=o090020270101|Strong=3068 14-15 הֲנִגְלֹ֤ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 הֲ הֲ PART _ _ 16 advmod _ Gloss=indeed|Ref=1SA_2:27!11|MId=o090020270111|Strong=1886b|Type=interrogative 15 נִגְלֹ֤ה גָּלָה VERB _ HebBinyan=NIPHAL 16 obl:npmod _ Gloss=(reveal)?|Ref=1SA_2:27!11|MId=o090020270112|Strong=1540|Type=infinitive_absolute 16 נִגְלֵ֙יתִי֙ גָּלָה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 12 ccomp _ Gloss=did.I.reveal.myself|Ref=1SA_2:27!12|MId=o090020270121|Strong=1540|Frame=A0:090020270101;|Type=qatal 17 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=1SA_2:27!13|MId=o090020270131|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 18 בֵּ֣ית בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 obl _ Gloss=the.house|Ref=1SA_2:27!14|MId=o090020270141|Strong=1004 19-20 אָבִ֔יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 אָבִ֔י אָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 18 compound:smixut _ Gloss=your.ancestor|Ref=1SA_2:27!15|MId=o090020270151|Strong=0001 20 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 19 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=1SA_2:27!15|MId=o090020270152|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 21-23 בִּֽהְיוֹתָ֥ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 בִּֽ בְּ ADP _ _ 27 case _ Gloss=when|Ref=1SA_2:27!16|MId=o090020270161|Strong=0871a 22 הְיוֹת הָיָה AUX _ HebBinyan=QAL 27 cop _ Gloss=were|Ref=1SA_2:27!16|MId=o090020270162|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:090020270163;|Type=infinitive_construct 23 ָ֥ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 27 nsubj _ Gloss=they|Ref=1SA_2:27!16|MId=o090020270163|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 24-25 בְּמִצְרַ֖יִם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 25 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=1SA_2:27!17|MId=o090020270171|Strong=0871a 25 מִצְרַ֖יִם מִצְרַיִם PROPN _ _ 27 obl _ Gloss=Egypt|Ref=1SA_2:27!17|MId=o090020270172|Strong=4714 26-27 לְבֵ֥ית _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 27 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=1SA_2:27!18|MId=o090020270181|Strong=3807a 27 בֵ֥ית בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 obl _ Gloss=the.house|Ref=1SA_2:27!18|MId=o090020270182|Strong=1004 28 פַּרְעֹֽה פַּרְעֹה PROPN _ _ 27 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Pharaoh|Ref=1SA_2:27!19|MId=o090020270191|Strong=6547|SpaceAfter=No 29 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 28 punct _ Ref=1SA_2:27!19 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: no - the frame alone: decl · narrate · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יָּבֹא *he came* | wayyiqtol · qal | אִישׁ־ *a man* | | | | | יֹּאמֶר *he said* | wayyiqtol · qal | אִישׁ־ *a man* | | | | | אָמַר *he says* | qatal · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | | נִגְלֵיתִי *did I reveal myself* | qatal · niphal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | | הְיוֹת *were* | infinitive construct · qal | ָם *they* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
