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 — thou, firstling — and what happens in the verse to all, womb, male, firstling, 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. וְהַעֲבַרְתָּ֥ כָל־פֶּֽטֶר־רֶ֖חֶם לַֽיהֹוָ֑ה וְכָל־פֶּ֣טֶר ׀ שֶׁ֣גֶר בְּהֵמָ֗ה אֲשֶׁ֨ר יִהְיֶ֥ה לְךָ֛ הַזְּכָרִ֖ים לַיהוָֽה׃ [that thou shalt set apart unto the LORD all that openeth the womb; every firstling that is a male, which thou hast coming of a beast, shall be the LORD'S.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/EXO.374/) ## 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:346 # text = וְהַעֲבַרְתָּ֥ כָל־פֶּֽטֶר־רֶ֖חֶם לַֽיהֹוָ֑ה וְכָל־פֶּ֣טֶר ׀ שֶׁ֣גֶר בְּהֵמָ֗ה אֲשֶׁ֨ר יִהְיֶ֥ה לְךָ֛ הַזְּכָרִ֖ים לַיהוָֽה׃ # verse = EXO.13.12 1-2 וְהַעֲבַרְתָּ֥ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_13:12!1|MId=o020130120011|Strong=2050b 2 הַעֲבַרְתָּ֥ עָבַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=you.will.dedicate|Ref=EXO_13:12!1|MId=o020130120012|Strong=5674|Frame=AA:020130030042;A0:020130120031;020130120071;|Type=weqatal 3 כָל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=every|Ref=EXO_13:12!2|MId=o020130120021|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 4 פֶּֽטֶר־ פֶּטֶר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=firstborn|Ref=EXO_13:12!3|MId=o020130120031|Strong=6363|SpaceAfter=No 5 רֶ֖חֶם רֶחֶם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.a.womb|Ref=EXO_13:12!4|MId=o020130120041|Strong=7358 6-7 לַֽיהֹוָ֑ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 לַֽ לְ ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EXO_13:12!5|MId=o020130120051|Strong=3807a 7 יהֹוָ֑ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=EXO_13:12!5|MId=o020130120052|Strong=3068 8-9 וְכָל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 9 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_13:12!6|MId=o020130120061|Strong=2050b 9 כָל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 conj _ Gloss=every|Ref=EXO_13:12!6|MId=o020130120062|Strong=3605 10 פֶּ֣טֶר פֶּטֶר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 compound:smixut _ Gloss=firstborn|Ref=EXO_13:12!7|MId=o020130120071|Strong=6363 11 ׀ ׀ PUNCT _ _ 10 punct _ Ref=EXO_13:12!7 12 שֶׁ֣גֶר שֶׁגֶר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 10 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.[the].young|Ref=EXO_13:12!8|MId=o020130120081|Strong=7698 13 בְּהֵמָ֗ה בְּהֵמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 12 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.cattle|Ref=EXO_13:12!9|MId=o020130120091|Strong=0929 14 אֲשֶׁ֨ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 17 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=EXO_13:12!10|MId=o020130120101|Strong=0834|Type=relative 15 יִהְיֶ֥ה הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 17 cop _ Gloss=it.will.belong|Ref=EXO_13:12!11|MId=o020130120111|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:020130120071;|Type=yiqtol 16-17 לְךָ֛ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 ל לְ ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EXO_13:12!12|MId=o020130120121|Strong=3807a 17 ְךָ֛ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 9 acl:relcl _ Gloss=you|Ref=EXO_13:12!12|MId=o020130120122|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 18-19 הַזְּכָרִ֖ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 19 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EXO_13:12!13|MId=o020130120131|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 19 זְּכָרִ֖ים זָכָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 21 nsubj _ Gloss=males|Ref=EXO_13:12!13|MId=o020130120132|Strong=2145 20-21 לַיהוָֽה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 21 case _ Gloss=[will|Ref=EXO_13:12!14|MId=o020130120141|Strong=3807a 21 יהוָֽה יהוה PROPN _ _ 2 parataxis _ Gloss=belong].to.Yahweh|Ref=EXO_13:12!14|MId=o020130120142|Strong=3068 22 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 21 punct _ Ref=EXO_13:12!14 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: request - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: no - indirect: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | הַעֲבַרְתָּ *you will dedicate* | weqatal · hiphil | פֶּֽטֶר־ *firstborn* + פֶּטֶר *firstborn* | | | | | יִהְיֶה *it will belong* | yiqtol · qal | פֶּטֶר *firstborn* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
