Who acts: ye, whole assembly. Exodus 12:6 in Hebrew with its dependency tree, Targum Onkelos, JPS 1917 and the pragmatics of every clause. --- [Mova](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) · [this page in HTML](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/EXO.12.6/) [home](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) / [corpora](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/) / [Tanakh](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/tanakh/) / [Torah](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/) / [Exodus](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/EXO/) / [chapter 12](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/EXO/12/) / 12:6 # Exodus 12:6 שְׁמוֹת **Who acts:** ye, whole assembly · **What happens:** keep, kill · **To what, where:** male This is Exodus 12:6 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (The Torah). 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 — ye, whole assembly — and what happens in the verse to male, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of Targum Onkelos 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 40 chapters of Exodus on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וְהָיָ֤ה לָכֶם֙ לְמִשְׁמֶ֔רֶת עַ֣ד אַרְבָּעָ֥ה עָשָׂ֛ר י֖וֹם לַחֹ֣דֶשׁ הַזֶּ֑ה וְשָׁחֲט֣וּ אֹת֗וֹ כֹּ֛ל קְהַ֥ל עֲדַֽת־יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל בֵּ֥ין הָעַרְבָּֽיִם׃ [and ye shall keep it unto the fourteenth day of the same month; and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it at dusk.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/EXO.316/) ## 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:EXO:289 # text = וְהָיָ֤ה לָכֶם֙ לְמִשְׁמֶ֔רֶת עַ֣ד אַרְבָּעָ֥ה עָשָׂ֛ר י֖וֹם לַחֹ֣דֶשׁ הַזֶּ֑ה וְשָׁחֲט֣וּ אֹת֗וֹ כֹּ֛ל קְהַ֥ל עֲדַֽת־יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל בֵּ֥ין הָעַרְבָּֽיִם׃ # verse = EXO.12.6 1-2 וְהָיָ֤ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 6 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_12:6!1|MId=o020120060011|Strong=2050b 2 הָיָ֤ה הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 6 cop _ Gloss=it.will.be|Ref=EXO_12:6!1|MId=o020120060012|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:020120050011;|Type=weqatal 3-4 לָכֶם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 ל לְ ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=EXO_12:6!2|MId=o020120060021|Strong=3807a 4 ָכֶם֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 6 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=EXO_12:6!2|MId=o020120060022|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 5-6 לְמִשְׁמֶ֔רֶת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=EXO_12:6!3|MId=o020120060031|Strong=3807a 6 מִשְׁמֶ֔רֶת מִשְׁמֶרֶת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 0 root _ Gloss=safekeeping|Ref=EXO_12:6!3|MId=o020120060032|Strong=4931 7 עַ֣ד עַד ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=until|Ref=EXO_12:6!4|MId=o020120060041|Strong=5704 8 אַרְבָּעָ֥ה אַרְבַּע NUM _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 10 nummod _ Gloss=[the].four-|Ref=EXO_12:6!5|MId=o020120060051|Strong=0702|Type=cardinal_number 9 עָשָׂ֛ר עָשָׂר NUM _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 flat _ Gloss=teen|Ref=EXO_12:6!6|MId=o020120060061|Strong=6240|Type=cardinal_number 10 י֖וֹם יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 obl _ Gloss=day|Ref=EXO_12:6!7|MId=o020120060071|Strong=3117 11-13 לַחֹ֣דֶשׁ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=of|Ref=EXO_12:6!8|MId=o020120060081|Strong=3807a 12 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 13 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EXO_12:6!8|MId=o020120060081ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 13 חֹ֣דֶשׁ חֹדֶשׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 10 nmod _ Gloss=month|Ref=EXO_12:6!8|MId=o020120060082|Strong=2320 14-15 הַזֶּ֑ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 15 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=EXO_12:6!9|MId=o020120060091|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 15 זֶּ֑ה זֶה DET _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 13 det _ Gloss=this|Ref=EXO_12:6!9|MId=o020120060092|Strong=2088|Type=demonstrative 16-17 וְשָׁחֲט֣וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 17 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_12:6!10|MId=o020120060101|Strong=2050b 17 שָׁחֲט֣וּ שָׁחַט VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 6 conj _ Gloss=they.will.slaughter|Ref=EXO_12:6!10|MId=o020120060102|Strong=7819|Frame=A1:020120060112;A0:020120060131;|Type=weqatal 18-19 אֹת֗וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 אֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=|Ref=EXO_12:6!11|MId=o020120060111|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 19 ֗וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 17 obj _ Gloss=it|Ref=EXO_12:6!11|MId=o020120060112|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 20 כֹּ֛ל כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 nsubj _ Gloss=all|Ref=EXO_12:6!12|MId=o020120060121|Strong=3605 21 קְהַ֥ל קָהָל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 20 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.assembly|Ref=EXO_12:6!13|MId=o020120060131|Strong=6951 22 עֲדַֽת־ עֵדָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 21 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.the.congregation|Ref=EXO_12:6!14|MId=o020120060141|Strong=5712|SpaceAfter=No 23 יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 22 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Israel|Ref=EXO_12:6!15|MId=o020120060151|Strong=3478 24 בֵּ֥ין בֵּין ADP _ _ 26 case _ Gloss=between|Ref=EXO_12:6!16|MId=o020120060161|Strong=0996 25-26 הָעַרְבָּֽיִם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 26 det _ Gloss=the.two|Ref=EXO_12:6!17|MId=o020120060171|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 26 עַרְבָּֽיִם עֶרֶב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Dual 17 obl _ Gloss=evenings|Ref=EXO_12:6!17|MId=o020120060172|Strong=6153 27 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=EXO_12:6!17 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | הָיָה *it will be* | weqatal · qal | | | | | | שָׁחֲטוּ *they will slaughter* | weqatal · qal | קְהַל *the assembly* | וֹ *it* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
