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 — Joshua, oak — and what happens in the verse to words, book, great stone, stone, oak, 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. וַיִּכְתֹּ֤ב יְהוֹשֻׁ֙עַ֙ אֶת־הַדְּבָרִ֣ים הָאֵ֔לֶּה בְּסֵ֖פֶר תּוֹרַ֣ת אֱלֹהִ֑ים וַיִּקַּח֙ אֶ֣בֶן גְּדוֹלָ֔ה וַיְקִימֶ֣הָ שָּׁ֔ם תַּ֚חַת הָֽאַלָּ֔ה אֲשֶׁ֖ר בְּמִקְדַּ֥שׁ יְהוָֽה׃ס [And Joshua wrote these words in the book of the law of God; and he took a great stone, and set it up there under the oak that was by the sanctuary of the LORD.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JOS.673/) ## 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:650 # text = וַיִּכְתֹּ֤ב יְהוֹשֻׁ֙עַ֙ אֶת־הַדְּבָרִ֣ים הָאֵ֔לֶּה בְּסֵ֖פֶר תּוֹרַ֣ת אֱלֹהִ֑ים וַיִּקַּח֙ אֶ֣בֶן גְּדוֹלָ֔ה וַיְקִימֶ֣הָ שָּׁ֔ם תַּ֚חַת הָֽאַלָּ֔ה אֲשֶׁ֖ר בְּמִקְדַּ֥שׁ יְהוָֽה׃ס # verse = JOS.24.26 1-2 וַיִּכְתֹּ֤ב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOS_24:26!1|MId=o060240260011|Strong=2050b 2 יִּכְתֹּ֤ב כָּתַב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.wrote|Ref=JOS_24:26!1|MId=o060240260012|Strong=3789|Frame=A0:060240260021;A1:060240260042;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 יְהוֹשֻׁ֙עַ֙ יְהֹושֻׁעַ PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Joshua|Ref=JOS_24:26!2|MId=o060240260021|Strong=3091 4 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=JOS_24:26!3|MId=o060240260031|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 5-6 הַדְּבָרִ֣ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 6 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JOS_24:26!4|MId=o060240260041|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 6 דְּבָרִ֣ים דָּבָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 obj _ Gloss=words|Ref=JOS_24:26!4|MId=o060240260042|Strong=1697 7-8 הָאֵ֔לֶּה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 8 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=JOS_24:26!5|MId=o060240260051|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 8 אֵ֔לֶּה אֵלֶּה DET _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|PronType=Dem 6 det _ Gloss=these|Ref=JOS_24:26!5|MId=o060240260052|Strong=0428|Type=demonstrative 9-10 בְּסֵ֖פֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=JOS_24:26!6|MId=o060240260061|Strong=0871a 10 סֵ֖פֶר סֵפֶר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=the.book|Ref=JOS_24:26!6|MId=o060240260062|Strong=5612 11 תּוֹרַ֣ת תּוֹרָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 10 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.the.law|Ref=JOS_24:26!7|MId=o060240260071|Strong=8451 12 אֱלֹהִ֑ים אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 11 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.God|Ref=JOS_24:26!8|MId=o060240260081|Strong=0430 13-14 וַיִּקַּח֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOS_24:26!9|MId=o060240260091|Strong=2050b 14 יִּקַּח֙ לָקַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.took|Ref=JOS_24:26!9|MId=o060240260092|Strong=3947|Frame=A0:060240260021;A1:060240260101;|Type=wayyiqtol 15 אֶ֣בֶן אֶבֶן NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 14 obj _ Gloss=a.stone|Ref=JOS_24:26!10|MId=o060240260101|Strong=0068 16 גְּדוֹלָ֔ה גָּדוֹל ADJ _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 15 amod _ Gloss=large|Ref=JOS_24:26!11|MId=o060240260111|Strong=1419|Type=adjective 17-19 וַיְקִימֶ֣הָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 18 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOS_24:26!12|MId=o060240260121|Strong=2050b 18 יְקִימ קוּם VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he|Ref=JOS_24:26!12|MId=o060240260122|Strong=6965|Frame=AA:060240260021;A0:060240260123;|Type=wayyiqtol 19 ֶ֣הָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 18 obj _ Gloss=set.it.up|Ref=JOS_24:26!12|MId=o060240260123|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 20 שָּׁ֔ם שָׁם ADV _ _ 18 advmod _ Gloss=there|Ref=JOS_24:26!13|MId=o060240260131|Strong=8033 21 תַּ֚חַת תַּחַת NOUN _ _ 18 obl _ Gloss=under|Ref=JOS_24:26!14|MId=o060240260141|Strong=8478 22-23 הָֽאַלָּ֔ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 הָֽ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 23 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JOS_24:26!15|MId=o060240260151|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 23 אַלָּ֔ה אַלָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 21 compound:smixut _ Gloss=oak|Ref=JOS_24:26!15|MId=o060240260152|Strong=0427 24 אֲשֶׁ֖ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 26 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=JOS_24:26!16|MId=o060240260161|Strong=0834|Type=relative 25-26 בְּמִקְדַּ֥שׁ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 26 case _ Gloss=[was].at|Ref=JOS_24:26!17|MId=o060240260171|Strong=0871a 26 מִקְדַּ֥שׁ מִקְדָּשׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 23 acl:relcl _ Gloss=the.sanctuary|Ref=JOS_24:26!17|MId=o060240260172|Strong=4720 27 יְהוָֽה יהוה PROPN _ _ 26 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=JOS_24:26!18|MId=o060240260181|Strong=3068|SpaceAfter=No 28 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 27 punct _ Ref=JOS_24:26!18|SpaceAfter=No 29 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 27 punct _ Ref=JOS_24:26!18 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יִּכְתֹּב *he wrote* | wayyiqtol · qal | יְהוֹשֻׁעַ *Joshua* | דְּבָרִים *words* | | | | יִּקַּח *he took* | wayyiqtol · qal | יְהוֹשֻׁעַ *Joshua* | אֶבֶן *a stone* | | | | יְקִימ *he* | wayyiqtol · hiphil | ֶהָ *set it up* | | | יְהוֹשֻׁעַ *Joshua* | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
