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 — Israel, children — and what happens in the verse to palm tree, Israel, 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. וְ֠הִיא יוֹשֶׁ֨בֶת תַּֽחַת־תֹּ֜מֶר דְּבוֹרָ֗ה בֵּ֧ין הָרָמָ֛ה וּבֵ֥ין בֵּֽית־אֵ֖לבֵּֽית־אֵ֖ל בְּהַ֣ר אֶפְרָ֑יִם וַיַּעֲל֥וּ אֵלֶ֛יהָ בְּנֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל לַמִּשְׁפָּֽט׃ [And she sat under the palm-tree of Deborah between Ramah and Beth-el in the hill-country of Ephraim; and the children of Israel came up to her for judgment.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JDG.99/) ## 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:94 # text = וְ֠הִיא יוֹשֶׁ֨בֶת תַּֽחַת־תֹּ֜מֶר דְּבוֹרָ֗ה בֵּ֧ין הָרָמָ֛ה וּבֵ֥ין בֵּֽית־אֵ֖לבֵּֽית־אֵ֖ל בְּהַ֣ר אֶפְרָ֑יִם וַיַּעֲל֥וּ אֵלֶ֛יהָ בְּנֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל לַמִּשְׁפָּֽט׃ # verse = JDG.4.5 1-2 וְ֠הִיא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ֠ וְ CCONJ _ _ 3 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_4:5!1|MId=o070040050011|Strong=2050b 2 הִיא הִיא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 3 nsubj _ Gloss=she|Ref=JDG_4:5!1|MId=o070040050012|Strong=1931a|Type=personal 3 יוֹשֶׁ֨בֶת יָשַׁב VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 0 root _ Gloss=[was].dwelling|Ref=JDG_4:5!2|MId=o070040050021|Strong=3427|Frame=A0:070040050012;|Type=participle_active 4 תַּֽחַת־ תַּחַת NOUN _ _ 3 obl _ Gloss=under|Ref=JDG_4:5!3|MId=o070040050031|Strong=8478|SpaceAfter=No 5 תֹּ֜מֶר תֹּמֶר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.palm.tree|Ref=JDG_4:5!4|MId=o070040050041|Strong=8560 6 דְּבוֹרָ֗ה דְּבוֹרָה PROPN _ _ 5 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Deborah|Ref=JDG_4:5!5|MId=o070040050051|Strong=1683 7 בֵּ֧ין בֵּין ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=between|Ref=JDG_4:5!6|MId=o070040050061|Strong=0996 8-9 הָרָמָ֛ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 9 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=JDG_4:5!7|MId=o070040050071|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 9 רָמָ֛ה רָמָה PROPN _ _ 3 obl _ Gloss=Ramah|Ref=JDG_4:5!7|MId=o070040050072|Strong=7414 10-11 וּבֵ֥ין _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 12 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_4:5!8|MId=o070040050081|Strong=2050b 11 בֵ֥ין בֵּין ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=between|Ref=JDG_4:5!8|MId=o070040050082|Strong=0996 12-13 בֵּֽית־אֵ֖לבֵּֽית־אֵ֖ל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 בֵּֽית־אֵ֖ל בֵּית־אֵל PROPN _ _ 9 conj _ Gloss=Bethel|Ref=JDG_4:5!9|MId=o070040050091 13 בֵּֽית־אֵ֖ל בֵּיתְאֵל PROPN _ _ 12 nmod _ Gloss=Bethel|Ref=JDG_4:5!10|MId=o070040050101 14-15 בְּהַ֣ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=JDG_4:5!11|MId=o070040050111|Strong=0871a 15 הַ֣ר הַר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 obl _ Gloss=the.hill.country|Ref=JDG_4:5!11|MId=o070040050112|Strong=2022 16 אֶפְרָ֑יִם אֶפְרַיִם PROPN _ _ 15 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Ephraim|Ref=JDG_4:5!12|MId=o070040050121|Strong=0669 17-18 וַיַּעֲל֥וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 18 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_4:5!13|MId=o070040050131|Strong=2050b 18 יַּעֲל֥וּ עָלָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 3 conj _ Gloss=they.went.up|Ref=JDG_4:5!13|MId=o070040050132|Strong=5927|Frame=A0:070040050141;|Type=wayyiqtol 19-20 אֵלֶ֛יהָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 אֵלֶ֛י אֶל ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JDG_4:5!14|MId=o070040050141|Strong=0413 20 הָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 18 obl _ Gloss=her|Ref=JDG_4:5!14|MId=o070040050142|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 21 בְּנֵ֥י בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 18 nsubj _ Gloss=the.people|Ref=JDG_4:5!15|MId=o070040050151|Strong=1121 22 יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 21 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Israel|Ref=JDG_4:5!16|MId=o070040050161|Strong=3478 23-25 לַמִּשְׁפָּֽט _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 25 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=JDG_4:5!17|MId=o070040050171|Strong=3807a 24 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 25 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=JDG_4:5!17|MId=o070040050171ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 25 מִּשְׁפָּֽט מִשְׁפָּט NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 18 obl _ Gloss=judgment|Ref=JDG_4:5!17|MId=o070040050172|Strong=4941 26 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 25 punct _ Ref=JDG_4:5!17 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יוֹשֶׁבֶת *\[was\] dwelling* | participle active · qal | הִיא *she* | | | | | יַּעֲלוּ *they went up* | wayyiqtol · qal | אֵלֶי *to* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
