# Joshua 6:22 יְהוֹשֻׁעַ

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** Joshua, two men, woman, ye · **What happens:** say, spy out, go, bring out, have, swear · **To what, where:** land, house, woman · **Speech:** someone speaks in this verse

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Joshua 6:22 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (Nevi'im — the Prophets). 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, two men, woman, ye — and what happens in the verse to land, house, woman, 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.

[And Joshua said unto the two men that had spied out the land: 'Go into the harlot's house, and bring out thence the woman, and all that she hath, as ye swore unto her.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JOS.122/)

## The tree {#tree}

<!-- .note -->
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.
