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 — border, Michmethath — and what happens in the verse to Asher, Michmethath, right hand, 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. וַיְהִ֤י גְבוּל־מְנַשֶּׁה֙ מֵֽאָשֵׁ֔ר הַֽמִּכְמְתָ֔ת אֲשֶׁ֖ר עַל־פְּנֵ֣י שְׁכֶ֑ם וְהָלַ֤ךְ הַגְּבוּל֙ אֶל־הַיָּמִ֔ין אֶל־יֹשְׁבֵ֖י עֵ֥ינ תַּפּֽוּחַ עֵ֥ינ תַּפּֽוּחַ׃ [And the border of Manasseh was, beginning from Asher, Michmethath, which is before Shechem; and the border went along to the right hand, unto the inhabitants of En-tappuah. —](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JOS.448/) ## 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:430 # text = וַיְהִ֤י גְבוּל־מְנַשֶּׁה֙ מֵֽאָשֵׁ֔ר הַֽמִּכְמְתָ֔ת אֲשֶׁ֖ר עַל־פְּנֵ֣י שְׁכֶ֑ם וְהָלַ֤ךְ הַגְּבוּל֙ אֶל־הַיָּמִ֔ין אֶל־יֹשְׁבֵ֖י עֵ֥ינ תַּפּֽוּחַ עֵ֥ינ תַּפּֽוּחַ׃ # verse = JOS.17.7 1-2 וַיְהִ֤י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOS_17:7!1|MId=o060170070011|Strong=2050b 2 יְהִ֤י הָיָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.was|Ref=JOS_17:7!1|MId=o060170070012|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:060170070021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 גְבוּל־ גְּבוּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=the.border|Ref=JOS_17:7!2|MId=o060170070021|Strong=1366|SpaceAfter=No 4 מְנַשֶּׁה֙ מְנַשֶּׁה PROPN _ _ 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Manasseh|Ref=JOS_17:7!3|MId=o060170070031|Strong=4519 5-6 מֵֽאָשֵׁ֔ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 מֵֽ מִן ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=JOS_17:7!4|MId=o060170070041|Strong=4480 6 אָשֵׁ֔ר אָשֵׁר PROPN _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=Asher|Ref=JOS_17:7!4|MId=o060170070042|Strong=0836 7-8 הַֽמִּכְמְתָ֔ת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 הַֽ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 8 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=JOS_17:7!5|MId=o060170070051|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 8 מִּכְמְתָ֔ת מִכְמְתָת PROPN _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=Micmethath|Ref=JOS_17:7!5|MId=o060170070052|Strong=4366 9 אֲשֶׁ֖ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 11 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=JOS_17:7!6|MId=o060170070061|Strong=0834|Type=relative 10 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=[is].on|Ref=JOS_17:7!7|MId=o060170070071|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 11 פְּנֵ֣י פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 8 acl:relcl _ Gloss=the.face|Ref=JOS_17:7!8|MId=o060170070081|Strong=6440 12 שְׁכֶ֑ם שְׁכֶם PROPN _ _ 11 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Shechem|Ref=JOS_17:7!9|MId=o060170070091|Strong=7927a 13-14 וְהָלַ֤ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOS_17:7!10|MId=o060170070101|Strong=2050b 14 הָלַ֤ךְ הָלַךְ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=it.goes|Ref=JOS_17:7!10|MId=o060170070102|Strong=1980|Frame=A0:060170070112;|Type=qatal 15-16 הַגְּבוּל֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 16 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JOS_17:7!11|MId=o060170070111|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 16 גְּבוּל֙ גְּבוּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 14 nsubj _ Gloss=border|Ref=JOS_17:7!11|MId=o060170070112|Strong=1366 17 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JOS_17:7!12|MId=o060170070121|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 18-19 הַיָּמִ֔ין _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 19 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JOS_17:7!13|MId=o060170070131|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 19 יָּמִ֔ין יָמִין NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 14 obl _ Gloss=south|Ref=JOS_17:7!13|MId=o060170070132|Strong=3225 20 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 21 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JOS_17:7!14|MId=o060170070141|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 21 יֹשְׁבֵ֖י יָשַׁב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 14 advcl _ Gloss=the.inhabitants|Ref=JOS_17:7!15|MId=o060170070151|Strong=3427|Type=participle_active 22 עֵ֥ינ עֵין PROPN _ _ 21 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of|Ref=JOS_17:7!16|MId=o060170070161 23 תַּפּֽוּחַ תַּפּוּחַ PROPN _ _ 22 flat:name _ Ref=JOS_17:7!16 24 עֵ֥ינ עֵין PROPN _ _ 21 compound:smixut _ Gloss=En.Tappuah|Ref=JOS_17:7!17|MId=o060170070171 25 תַּפּֽוּחַ תַּפּוּחַ PROPN _ _ 24 flat:name _ Ref=JOS_17:7!17|SpaceAfter=No 26 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 24 punct _ Ref=JOS_17:7!17 ``` ## 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 | גְבוּל־ *the border* | | | | | הָלַךְ *it goes* | qatal · qal | גְּבוּל *border* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
