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 — lot — and what happens in the verse, 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 24 chapters of Joshua on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַיְהִ֣י הַגּוֹרָ֗ל לְמַטֵּ֛ה בְּנֵ֥י יְהוּדָ֖ה לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָ֑ם אֶל־גְּב֨וּל אֱד֧וֹם מִדְבַּר־צִ֛ן נֶ֖גְבָּה מִקְצֵ֥ה תֵימָֽן׃ [And the lot for the tribe of the children of Judah according to their families was unto the border of Edom, even to the wilderness of Zin southward, at the uttermost part of the south.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JOS.365/) ## 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:JOS:351 # text = וַיְהִ֣י הַגּוֹרָ֗ל לְמַטֵּ֛ה בְּנֵ֥י יְהוּדָ֖ה לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָ֑ם אֶל־גְּב֨וּל אֱד֧וֹם מִדְבַּר־צִ֛ן נֶ֖גְבָּה מִקְצֵ֥ה תֵימָֽן׃ # verse = JOS.15.1 1-2 וַיְהִ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOS_15:1!1|MId=o060150010011|Strong=2050b 2 יְהִ֣י הָיָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.was|Ref=JOS_15:1!1|MId=o060150010012|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:060150010022;|Type=wayyiqtol 3-4 הַגּוֹרָ֗ל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 4 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JOS_15:1!2|MId=o060150010021|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 4 גּוֹרָ֗ל גּוֹרָל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=lot|Ref=JOS_15:1!2|MId=o060150010022|Strong=1486 5-6 לְמַטֵּ֛ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=of|Ref=JOS_15:1!3|MId=o060150010031|Strong=3807a 6 מַטֵּ֛ה מַטֶּה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=the.tribe|Ref=JOS_15:1!3|MId=o060150010032|Strong=4294 7 בְּנֵ֥י בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 6 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.the.descendants|Ref=JOS_15:1!4|MId=o060150010041|Strong=1121 8 יְהוּדָ֖ה יְהוּדָה PROPN _ _ 7 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Judah|Ref=JOS_15:1!5|MId=o060150010051|Strong=3063 9-11 לְמִשְׁפְּחֹתָ֑ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JOS_15:1!6|MId=o060150010061|Strong=3807a 10 מִשְׁפְּחֹת מִשְׁפָּחָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 2 obl _ Gloss=clans|Ref=JOS_15:1!6|MId=o060150010062|Strong=4940 11 ָ֑ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 10 nmod:poss _ Gloss=their|Ref=JOS_15:1!6|MId=o060150010063|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 12 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JOS_15:1!7|MId=o060150010071|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 13 גְּב֨וּל גְּבוּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=the.border|Ref=JOS_15:1!8|MId=o060150010081|Strong=1366 14 אֱד֧וֹם אֱדוֹם PROPN _ _ 13 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Edom|Ref=JOS_15:1!9|MId=o060150010091|Strong=0123 15 מִדְבַּר־ מִדְבָּר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 appos _ Gloss=the.wilderness|Ref=JOS_15:1!10|MId=o060150010101|Strong=4057|SpaceAfter=No 16 צִ֛ן צִן PROPN _ _ 15 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Zin|Ref=JOS_15:1!11|MId=o060150010111|Strong=6790 17-18 נֶ֖גְבָּה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 נֶ֖גְבּ נֶגֶב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 15 nmod _ Gloss=south|Ref=JOS_15:1!12|MId=o060150010121|Strong=5045 18 ָה ה X _ _ 17 nmod _ Gloss=to.[the]|Ref=JOS_15:1!12|MId=o060150010122|Strong=1886c|Type=directional_he 19-20 מִקְצֵ֥ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=from.[the]|Ref=JOS_15:1!13|MId=o060150010131|Strong=4480 20 קְצֵ֥ה קָצֶה NOUN _ Number=Sing 15 nmod _ Gloss=end|Ref=JOS_15:1!13|MId=o060150010132|Strong=7097 21 תֵימָֽן תֵּימָן NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 20 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.[the].south|Ref=JOS_15:1!14|MId=o060150010141|Strong=8486|SpaceAfter=No 22 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 21 punct _ Ref=JOS_15:1!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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יְהִי *it was* | wayyiqtol · qal | גּוֹרָל *lot* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
