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 — thou, rebellious house, that, ears — and what happens in the verse to midst, eyes, ears, rebellious house, 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 48 chapters of Ezekiel on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. בֶּן־אָדָ֕ם בְּת֥וֹךְ בֵּית־הַמֶּ֖רִי אַתָּ֣ה יֹשֵׁ֑ב אֲשֶׁ֣ר עֵינַיִם֩ לָהֶ֨ם לִרְא֜וֹת וְלֹ֣א רָא֗וּ אָזְנַ֨יִם לָהֶ֤ם לִשְׁמֹ֙עַ֙ וְלֹ֣א שָׁמֵ֔עוּ כִּ֛י בֵּ֥ית מְרִ֖י הֵֽם׃ ['Son of man, thou dwellest in the midst of the rebellious house, that have eyes to see, and see not, that have ears to hear, and hear not; for they are a rebellious house.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/EZK.228/) ## 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:EZK:217 # text = בֶּן־אָדָ֕ם בְּת֥וֹךְ בֵּית־הַמֶּ֖רִי אַתָּ֣ה יֹשֵׁ֑ב אֲשֶׁ֣ר עֵינַיִם֩ לָהֶ֨ם לִרְא֜וֹת וְלֹ֣א רָא֗וּ אָזְנַ֨יִם לָהֶ֤ם לִשְׁמֹ֙עַ֙ וְלֹ֣א שָׁמֵ֔עוּ כִּ֛י בֵּ֥ית מְרִ֖י הֵֽם׃ # verse = EZK.12.2 1 בֶּן־ בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 dislocated _ Gloss=O.son|Ref=EZK_12:2!1|MId=o260120020011|Strong=1121|SpaceAfter=No 2 אָדָ֕ם אָדָם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 1 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.humankind|Ref=EZK_12:2!2|MId=o260120020021|Strong=0120 3-4 בְּת֥וֹךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=EZK_12:2!3|MId=o260120020031|Strong=0871a 4 ת֥וֹךְ תָּוֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 obl _ Gloss=the.midst|Ref=EZK_12:2!3|MId=o260120020032|Strong=8432 5 בֵּית־ בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.the.house|Ref=EZK_12:2!4|MId=o260120020041|Strong=1004|SpaceAfter=No 6-7 הַמֶּ֖רִי _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 7 det _ Gloss=of.(the)|Ref=EZK_12:2!5|MId=o260120020051|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 7 מֶּ֖רִי מְרִי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 5 compound:smixut _ Gloss=rebellion|Ref=EZK_12:2!5|MId=o260120020052|Strong=4805 8 אַתָּ֣ה אַתָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 9 nsubj _ Gloss=you|Ref=EZK_12:2!6|MId=o260120020061|Strong=0859|Type=personal 9 יֹשֵׁ֑ב יָשַׁב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 0 root _ Gloss=[are].dwelling|Ref=EZK_12:2!7|MId=o260120020071|Strong=3427|Frame=A0:260120020061;|Type=participle_active 10 אֲשֶׁ֣ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 13 mark _ Gloss=whom|Ref=EZK_12:2!8|MId=o260120020081|Strong=0834|Type=relative 11 עֵינַיִם֩ עַיִן NOUN _ Number=Dual 13 nsubj _ Gloss=eyes|Ref=EZK_12:2!9|MId=o260120020091|Strong=5869 12-13 לָהֶ֨ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 ל לְ ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=[belong].to|Ref=EZK_12:2!10|MId=o260120020101|Strong=3807a 13 ָהֶ֨ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 9 parataxis _ Gloss=them|Ref=EZK_12:2!10|MId=o260120020102|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 14-15 לִרְא֜וֹת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EZK_12:2!11|MId=o260120020111|Strong=3807a 15 רְא֜וֹת רָאָה VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 13 advcl _ Gloss=see|Ref=EZK_12:2!11|MId=o260120020112|Strong=7200|Frame=A0:260120020041;|Type=infinitive_construct 16-17 וְלֹ֣א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 18 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_12:2!12|MId=o260120020121|Strong=2050b 17 לֹ֣א לֹא ADV _ _ 18 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=EZK_12:2!12|MId=o260120020122|Strong=3808|Type=negative 18 רָא֗וּ רָאָה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 13 conj _ Gloss=they.see|Ref=EZK_12:2!13|MId=o260120020131|Strong=7200|Frame=A0:260120020041;|Type=qatal 19 אָזְנַ֨יִם אֹזֶן NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Dual 21 nsubj _ Gloss=ears|Ref=EZK_12:2!14|MId=o260120020141|Strong=0241 20-21 לָהֶ֤ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 ל לְ ADP _ _ 21 case _ Gloss=[belong].to|Ref=EZK_12:2!15|MId=o260120020151|Strong=3807a 21 ָהֶ֤ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 13 parataxis _ Gloss=them|Ref=EZK_12:2!15|MId=o260120020152|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 22-23 לִשְׁמֹ֙עַ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EZK_12:2!16|MId=o260120020161|Strong=3807a 23 שְׁמֹ֙עַ֙ שָׁמַע VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 21 advcl _ Gloss=hear|Ref=EZK_12:2!16|MId=o260120020162|Strong=8085|Frame=A0:260120020041;|Type=infinitive_construct 24-25 וְלֹ֣א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 26 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_12:2!17|MId=o260120020171|Strong=2050b 25 לֹ֣א לֹא ADV _ _ 26 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=EZK_12:2!17|MId=o260120020172|Strong=3808|Type=negative 26 שָׁמֵ֔עוּ שָׁמַע VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 21 conj _ Gloss=they.hear|Ref=EZK_12:2!18|MId=o260120020181|Strong=8085|Frame=A0:260120020041;|Type=qatal 27 כִּ֛י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 28 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=EZK_12:2!19|MId=o260120020191|Strong=3588 28 בֵּ֥ית בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 advcl _ Gloss=[are].a.house|Ref=EZK_12:2!20|MId=o260120020201|Strong=1004 29 מְרִ֖י מְרִי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 28 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.rebellion|Ref=EZK_12:2!21|MId=o260120020211|Strong=4805 30 הֵֽם הֵם PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 28 nsubj _ Gloss=they|Ref=EZK_12:2!22|MId=o260120020221|Strong=1992|Type=personal|SpaceAfter=No 31 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 30 punct _ Ref=EZK_12:2!22 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
