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 — men, Judah, house — and what happens in the verse to land, seven portions, border, 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. וְהִֽתְחַלְּק֥וּ אֹתָ֖הּ לְשִׁבְעָ֣ה חֲלָקִ֑ים יְהוּדָ֞ה יַעֲמֹ֤ד עַל־גְּבוּלוֹ֙ מִנֶּ֔גֶב וּבֵ֥ית יוֹסֵ֛ף יַעַמְד֥וּ עַל־גְּבוּלָ֖ם מִצָּפֽוֹן׃ [And they shall divide it into seven portions: Judah shall abide in his border on the south, and the house of Joseph shall abide in their border on the north.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JOS.464/) ## 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:446 # text = וְהִֽתְחַלְּק֥וּ אֹתָ֖הּ לְשִׁבְעָ֣ה חֲלָקִ֑ים יְהוּדָ֞ה יַעֲמֹ֤ד עַל־גְּבוּלוֹ֙ מִנֶּ֔גֶב וּבֵ֥ית יוֹסֵ֛ף יַעַמְד֥וּ עַל־גְּבוּלָ֖ם מִצָּפֽוֹן׃ # verse = JOS.18.5 1-2 וְהִֽתְחַלְּק֥וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOS_18:5!1|MId=o060180050011|Strong=2050b 2 הִֽתְחַלְּק֥וּ חָלַק VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=HITHPAEL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.will.divide.among.themselves|Ref=JOS_18:5!1|MId=o060180050012|Strong=2505|Frame=A0:060180040041;A1:060180050022;|Type=weqatal 3-4 אֹתָ֖הּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 אֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=|Ref=JOS_18:5!2|MId=o060180050021|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 4 ָ֖הּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 2 obj _ Gloss=it|Ref=JOS_18:5!2|MId=o060180050022|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 5-6 לְשִׁבְעָ֣ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=(into)|Ref=JOS_18:5!3|MId=o060180050031|Strong=3807a 6 שִׁבְעָ֣ה שֶׁבַע NUM _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 7 nummod _ Gloss=seven|Ref=JOS_18:5!3|MId=o060180050032|Strong=7651|Type=cardinal_number 7 חֲלָקִ֑ים חֵלֶק NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 obl _ Gloss=portions|Ref=JOS_18:5!4|MId=o060180050041|Strong=2506 8 יְהוּדָ֞ה יְהוּדָה PROPN _ _ 9 nsubj _ Gloss=Judah|Ref=JOS_18:5!5|MId=o060180050051|Strong=3063 9 יַעֲמֹ֤ד עָמַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 parataxis _ Gloss=it.will.remain|Ref=JOS_18:5!6|MId=o060180050061|Strong=5975|Frame=A0:060180050051;|Type=yiqtol 10 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=JOS_18:5!7|MId=o060180050071|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 11-12 גְּבוּלוֹ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 גְּבוּל גְּבוּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 obl _ Gloss=territory|Ref=JOS_18:5!8|MId=o060180050081|Strong=1366 12 וֹ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 11 nmod:poss _ Gloss=its|Ref=JOS_18:5!8|MId=o060180050082|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 13-14 מִנֶּ֔גֶב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=from.[the]|Ref=JOS_18:5!9|MId=o060180050091|Strong=4480 14 נֶּ֔גֶב נֶגֶב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 obl _ Gloss=south|Ref=JOS_18:5!9|MId=o060180050092|Strong=5045 15-16 וּבֵ֥ית _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 18 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOS_18:5!10|MId=o060180050101|Strong=2050b 16 בֵ֥ית בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 18 nsubj _ Gloss=the.house|Ref=JOS_18:5!10|MId=o060180050102|Strong=1004 17 יוֹסֵ֛ף יוֹסֵף PROPN _ _ 16 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Joseph|Ref=JOS_18:5!11|MId=o060180050111|Strong=3130 18 יַעַמְד֥וּ עָמַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they.will.remain|Ref=JOS_18:5!12|MId=o060180050121|Strong=5975|Frame=A0:060180050102;|Type=yiqtol 19 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=JOS_18:5!13|MId=o060180050131|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 20-21 גְּבוּלָ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 גְּבוּל גְּבוּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 18 obl _ Gloss=territory|Ref=JOS_18:5!14|MId=o060180050141|Strong=1366 21 ָ֖ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 20 nmod:poss _ Gloss=their|Ref=JOS_18:5!14|MId=o060180050142|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 22-23 מִצָּפֽוֹן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=from.[the]|Ref=JOS_18:5!15|MId=o060180050151|Strong=4480 23 צָּפֽוֹן צָפוֹן NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 18 obl _ Gloss=north|Ref=JOS_18:5!15|MId=o060180050152|Strong=6828 24 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 23 punct _ Ref=JOS_18:5!15 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | הִֽתְחַלְּקוּ *they will divide among themselves* | weqatal · hithpael | | ָהּ *it* | | | | יַעֲמֹד *it will remain* | yiqtol · qal | יְהוּדָה *Judah* | | | | | יַעַמְדוּ *they will remain* | yiqtol · qal | בֵית *the house* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
