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 — LORD, heaven, earth, ye, place — and what happens in the verse to throne, footstool, house, resting place, 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 66 chapters of Isaiah on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. כֹּ֚ה אָמַ֣ר יְהוָ֔ה הַשָּׁמַ֣יִם כִּסְאִ֔י וְהָאָ֖רֶץ הֲדֹ֣ם רַגְלָ֑י אֵי־זֶ֥ה בַ֙יִת֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר תִּבְנוּ־לִ֔י וְאֵי־זֶ֥ה מָק֖וֹם מְנוּחָתִֽי׃ [Thus saith the LORD: The heaven is My throne, and the earth is My footstool; where is the house that ye may build unto Me?](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ISA.1403/) [And where is the place that may be My resting-place?](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ISA.1404/) ## 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:ISA:1267 # text = כֹּ֚ה אָמַ֣ר יְהוָ֔ה הַשָּׁמַ֣יִם כִּסְאִ֔י וְהָאָ֖רֶץ הֲדֹ֣ם רַגְלָ֑י אֵי־זֶ֥ה בַ֙יִת֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר תִּבְנוּ־לִ֔י וְאֵי־זֶ֥ה מָק֖וֹם מְנוּחָתִֽי׃ # verse = ISA.66.1 1 כֹּ֚ה כֹּה ADV _ _ 2 advmod _ Gloss=thus|Ref=ISA_66:1!1|MId=o230660010011|Strong=3541 2 אָמַ֣ר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.says|Ref=ISA_66:1!2|MId=o230660010021|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:230660010031;|Type=qatal 3 יְהוָ֔ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=ISA_66:1!3|MId=o230660010031|Strong=3068 4-5 הַשָּׁמַ֣יִם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 5 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=ISA_66:1!4|MId=o230660010041|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 5 שָּׁמַ֣יִם שָׁמַיִם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 6 nsubj _ Gloss=heavens|Ref=ISA_66:1!4|MId=o230660010042|Strong=8064 6-7 כִּסְאִ֔י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 כִּסְא כִּסֵּא NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 ccomp _ Gloss=throne|Ref=ISA_66:1!5|MId=o230660010051|Strong=3678 7 ִ֔י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 6 nmod:poss _ Gloss=[are].my|Ref=ISA_66:1!5|MId=o230660010052|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 8-10 וְהָאָ֖רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 11 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_66:1!6|MId=o230660010061|Strong=2050b 9 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 10 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=ISA_66:1!6|MId=o230660010062|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 10 אָ֖רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 11 nsubj _ Gloss=earth|Ref=ISA_66:1!6|MId=o230660010063|Strong=0776 11 הֲדֹ֣ם הֲדֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 conj _ Gloss=[is].the.footstool|Ref=ISA_66:1!7|MId=o230660010071|Strong=1916 12-13 רַגְלָ֑י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 רַגְל רֶגֶל NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Dual 11 compound:smixut _ Gloss=my.feet|Ref=ISA_66:1!8|MId=o230660010081|Strong=7272 13 ָ֑י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 12 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=ISA_66:1!8|MId=o230660010082|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 14 אֵי־ אַי PART _ _ 6 parataxis _ Gloss=where?|Ref=ISA_66:1!9|MId=o230660010091|Strong=0335|Type=interrogative|SpaceAfter=No 15 זֶ֥ה זֶה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 14 nsubj _ Gloss=this|Ref=ISA_66:1!10|MId=o230660010101|Strong=2088|Type=demonstrative 16 בַ֙יִת֙ בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 15 appos _ Gloss=[is.the].house|Ref=ISA_66:1!11|MId=o230660010111|Strong=1004 17 אֲשֶׁ֣ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 18 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=ISA_66:1!12|MId=o230660010121|Strong=0834|Type=relative 18 תִּבְנוּ־ בָּנָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 16 acl:relcl _ Gloss=you.will.build|Ref=ISA_66:1!13|MId=o230660010131|Strong=1129|Frame=A0:230650220171;A1:230660010111;|Type=yiqtol|SpaceAfter=No 19-20 לִ֔י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 ל לְ ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=ISA_66:1!14|MId=o230660010141|Strong=3807a 20 ִ֔י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 18 obl _ Gloss=me|Ref=ISA_66:1!14|MId=o230660010142|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 21-22 וְאֵי־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 22 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_66:1!15|MId=o230660010151|Strong=2050b 22 אֵי־ אַי PART _ _ 14 conj _ Gloss=where?|Ref=ISA_66:1!15|MId=o230660010152|Strong=0335|Type=interrogative 23 זֶ֥ה זֶה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 22 nsubj _ Gloss=this|Ref=ISA_66:1!16|MId=o230660010161|Strong=2088|Type=demonstrative 24 מָק֖וֹם מָקוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 23 appos _ Gloss=[is.the].place|Ref=ISA_66:1!17|MId=o230660010171|Strong=4725 25-26 מְנוּחָתִֽי _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 מְנוּחָת מְנוּחָה NOUN _ Number=Sing 24 appos _ Gloss=rest|Ref=ISA_66:1!18|MId=o230660010181|Strong=4496 26 ִֽי הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 25 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=ISA_66:1!18|MId=o230660010182|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 27 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=ISA_66:1!18 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: wh-question - act: ask - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: no - the frame alone: decl · assert · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | אָמַר *he says* | qatal · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | | תִּבְנוּ־ *you will build* | yiqtol · qal | | בַיִת *\[is the\] house* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
