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 — Gideon, I — and what happens in the verse to angel, 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. וַיַּ֣רְא גִּדְע֔וֹן כִּֽי־מַלְאַ֥ךְ יְהוָ֖ה ה֑וּאס וַיֹּ֣אמֶר גִּדְע֗וֹן אֲהָהּ֙ אֲדֹנָ֣י יְהוִ֔ה כִּֽי־עַל־כֵּ֤ן רָאִ֙יתִי֙ מַלְאַ֣ךְ יְהוָ֔ה פָּנִ֖ים אֶל־פָּנִֽים׃ [And Gideon saw that he was the angel of the LORD; and Gideon said: 'Alas, O Lord GOD! forasmuch as I have seen the angel of the LORD face to face.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JDG.180/) ## 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:166 # text = וַיַּ֣רְא גִּדְע֔וֹן כִּֽי־מַלְאַ֥ךְ יְהוָ֖ה ה֑וּאס וַיֹּ֣אמֶר גִּדְע֗וֹן אֲהָהּ֙ אֲדֹנָ֣י יְהוִ֔ה כִּֽי־עַל־כֵּ֤ן רָאִ֙יתִי֙ מַלְאַ֣ךְ יְהוָ֔ה פָּנִ֖ים אֶל־פָּנִֽים׃ # verse = JDG.6.22 1-2 וַיַּ֣רְא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_6:22!1|MId=o070060220011|Strong=2050b 2 יַּ֣רְא רָאָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.saw|Ref=JDG_6:22!1|MId=o070060220012|Strong=7200|Frame=A0:070060220021;A1:070060220041;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 גִּדְע֔וֹן גִּדְעוֹן PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Gideon|Ref=JDG_6:22!2|MId=o070060220021|Strong=1439 4 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 5 mark _ Gloss=(dm).that|Ref=JDG_6:22!3|MId=o070060220031|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 5 מַלְאַ֥ךְ מַלְאָךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 ccomp _ Gloss=[was].the.angel|Ref=JDG_6:22!4|MId=o070060220041|Strong=4397 6 יְהוָ֖ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 5 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=JDG_6:22!5|MId=o070060220051|Strong=3068 7 ה֑וּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 5 nsubj _ Gloss=it|Ref=JDG_6:22!6|MId=o070060220061|Strong=1931|Type=personal|SpaceAfter=No 8 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 7 punct _ Ref=JDG_6:22!6 9-10 וַיֹּ֣אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 10 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_6:22!7|MId=o070060220071|Strong=2050b 10 יֹּ֣אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=JDG_6:22!7|MId=o070060220072|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:070060220091;|Type=wayyiqtol 11 גִּדְע֗וֹן גִּדְעוֹן PROPN _ _ 10 nsubj _ Gloss=Gideon|Ref=JDG_6:22!8|MId=o070060220081|Strong=1439 12 אֲהָהּ֙ אֲהָהּ INTJ _ _ 10 ccomp _ Gloss=alas!|Ref=JDG_6:22!9|MId=o070060220091|Strong=0162|Type=interjection 13-14 אֲדֹנָ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 אֲדֹנ אֲדֹנָי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 12 parataxis _ Gloss=Lord|Ref=JDG_6:22!10|MId=o070060220101|Strong=0136 14 ָ֣י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 13 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=JDG_6:22!10|MId=o070060220102|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 15 יְהוִ֔ה יְהֹוִה PROPN _ _ 13 appos _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=JDG_6:22!11|MId=o070060220111|Strong=3069 16 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 18 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=JDG_6:22!12|MId=o070060220121|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 17 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=therefore|Ref=JDG_6:22!13|MId=o070060220131|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 18 כֵּ֤ן כֵּן ADV _ _ 2 conj _ Gloss=|Ref=JDG_6:22!14|MId=o070060220141|Strong=3651|Type=demonstrative 19 רָאִ֙יתִי֙ רָאָה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 12 parataxis _ Gloss=I.have.seen|Ref=JDG_6:22!15|MId=o070060220151|Strong=7200|Frame=A0:070060220091;A1:070060220171;|Type=qatal 20 מַלְאַ֣ךְ מַלְאָךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 19 obj _ Gloss=the.angel|Ref=JDG_6:22!16|MId=o070060220161|Strong=4397 21 יְהוָ֔ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 20 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=JDG_6:22!17|MId=o070060220171|Strong=3068 22 פָּנִ֖ים פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 19 obl _ Gloss=face|Ref=JDG_6:22!18|MId=o070060220181|Strong=6440 23 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JDG_6:22!19|MId=o070060220191|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 24 פָּנִֽים פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 22 nmod _ Gloss=face|Ref=JDG_6:22!20|MId=o070060220201|Strong=6440|SpaceAfter=No 25 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 24 punct _ Ref=JDG_6:22!20 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יַּרְא *he saw* | wayyiqtol · qal | גִּדְעוֹן *Gideon* | מַלְאַךְ *\[was\] the angel* | | | | יֹּאמֶר *he said* | wayyiqtol · qal | אֲהָהּ *alas!* | | | | | רָאִיתִי *I have seen* | qatal · qal | אֲהָהּ *alas!* | יְהוָה *of Yahweh* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
