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 — Jephthah, fellows — and what happens in the verse to brethren, land, vain fellows, Jephthah, 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 21 chapters of Judges on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַיִּבְרַ֤ח יִפְתָּח֙ מִפְּנֵ֣י אֶחָ֔יו וַיֵּ֖שֶׁב בְּאֶ֣רֶץ ט֑וֹב וַיִּֽתְלַקְּט֤וּ אֶל־יִפְתָּח֙ אֲנָשִׁ֣ים רֵיקִ֔ים וַיֵּצְא֖וּ עִמּֽוֹ׃פ [Then Jephthah fled from his brethren, and dwelt in the land of Tob; and there were gathered vain fellows to Jephthah, and they went out with him.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JDG.339/) ## 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:JDG:322 # text = וַיִּבְרַ֤ח יִפְתָּח֙ מִפְּנֵ֣י אֶחָ֔יו וַיֵּ֖שֶׁב בְּאֶ֣רֶץ ט֑וֹב וַיִּֽתְלַקְּט֤וּ אֶל־יִפְתָּח֙ אֲנָשִׁ֣ים רֵיקִ֔ים וַיֵּצְא֖וּ עִמּֽוֹ׃פ # verse = JDG.11.3 1-2 וַיִּבְרַ֤ח _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_11:3!1|MId=o070110030011|Strong=2050b 2 יִּבְרַ֤ח בָּרַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.fled|Ref=JDG_11:3!1|MId=o070110030012|Strong=1272|Frame=A0:070110030021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 יִפְתָּח֙ יִפְתָּח PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Jephthah|Ref=JDG_11:3!2|MId=o070110030021|Strong=3316 4-5 מִפְּנֵ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=JDG_11:3!3|MId=o070110030031|Strong=4480 5 פְּנֵ֣י פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 2 obl _ Gloss=before|Ref=JDG_11:3!3|MId=o070110030032|Strong=6440 6-7 אֶחָ֔יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 אֶחָ֔י אָח NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 5 compound:smixut _ Gloss=brothers|Ref=JDG_11:3!4|MId=o070110030041|Strong=0251 7 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 6 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=JDG_11:3!4|MId=o070110030042|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 8-9 וַיֵּ֖שֶׁב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 9 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_11:3!5|MId=o070110030051|Strong=2050b 9 יֵּ֖שֶׁב יָשַׁב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.dwelt|Ref=JDG_11:3!5|MId=o070110030052|Strong=3427|Frame=A0:070110030021;|Type=wayyiqtol 10-11 בְּאֶ֣רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=JDG_11:3!6|MId=o070110030061|Strong=0871a 11 אֶ֣רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 9 obl _ Gloss=the.land|Ref=JDG_11:3!6|MId=o070110030062|Strong=0776 12 ט֑וֹב טוֹב PROPN _ _ 11 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Tob|Ref=JDG_11:3!7|MId=o070110030071|Strong=2897 13-14 וַיִּֽתְלַקְּט֤וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_11:3!8|MId=o070110030081|Strong=2050b 14 יִּֽתְלַקְּט֤וּ לָקַט VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HITHPAEL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they.joined.themselves|Ref=JDG_11:3!8|MId=o070110030082|Strong=3950|Frame=A0:070110030111;|Type=wayyiqtol 15 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JDG_11:3!9|MId=o070110030091|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 16 יִפְתָּח֙ יִפְתָּח PROPN _ _ 14 obl _ Gloss=Jephthah|Ref=JDG_11:3!10|MId=o070110030101|Strong=3316 17 אֲנָשִׁ֣ים אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 14 nsubj _ Gloss=men|Ref=JDG_11:3!11|MId=o070110030111|Strong=0376 18 רֵיקִ֔ים רֵיק ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 17 amod _ Gloss=worthless|Ref=JDG_11:3!12|MId=o070110030121|Strong=7386|Type=adjective 19-20 וַיֵּצְא֖וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 20 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_11:3!13|MId=o070110030131|Strong=2050b 20 יֵּצְא֖וּ יָצָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they.went.out|Ref=JDG_11:3!13|MId=o070110030132|Strong=3318|Frame=A0:070110030111;|Type=wayyiqtol 21-22 עִמּֽוֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 עִמּ עִם ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=JDG_11:3!14|MId=o070110030141|Strong=5973 22 ֽוֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 20 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=JDG_11:3!14|MId=o070110030142|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 23 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 22 punct _ Ref=JDG_11:3!14|SpaceAfter=No 24 פ פ PUNCT _ _ 22 punct _ Ref=JDG_11:3!14 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יִּבְרַח *he fled* | wayyiqtol · qal | יִפְתָּח *Jephthah* | | | | | יֵּשֶׁב *he dwelt* | wayyiqtol · qal | יִפְתָּח *Jephthah* | | | | | יִּֽתְלַקְּטוּ *they joined themselves* | wayyiqtol · hithpael | אֲנָשִׁים *men* | | | | | יֵּצְאוּ *they went out* | wayyiqtol · qal | אֲנָשִׁים *men* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
