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 — son, thou, LORD — and what happens in the verse to thee, this, us, Egypt, 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. וְהָיָ֞ה כִּֽי־יִשְׁאָלְךָ֥ בִנְךָ֛ מָחָ֖ר לֵאמֹ֣ר מַה־זֹּ֑את וְאָמַרְתָּ֣ אֵלָ֔יו בְּחֹ֣זֶק יָ֗ד הוֹצִיאָ֧נוּ יְהוָ֛ה מִמִּצְרַ֖יִם מִבֵּ֥ית עֲבָדִֽים׃ [And it shall be when thy son asketh thee in time to come, saying: What is this? that thou shalt say unto him: By strength of hand the LORD brought us out from Egypt, from the house of bondage;](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/EXO.376/) ## 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:348 # text = וְהָיָ֞ה כִּֽי־יִשְׁאָלְךָ֥ בִנְךָ֛ מָחָ֖ר לֵאמֹ֣ר מַה־זֹּ֑את וְאָמַרְתָּ֣ אֵלָ֔יו בְּחֹ֣זֶק יָ֗ד הוֹצִיאָ֧נוּ יְהוָ֛ה מִמִּצְרַ֖יִם מִבֵּ֥ית עֲבָדִֽים׃ # verse = EXO.13.14 1-2 וְהָיָ֞ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_13:14!1|MId=o020130140011|Strong=2050b 2 הָיָ֞ה הָיָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.will.be|Ref=EXO_13:14!1|MId=o020130140012|Strong=1961|Type=weqatal 3 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 4 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=EXO_13:14!2|MId=o020130140021|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 4-5 יִשְׁאָלְךָ֥ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 יִשְׁאָל שָׁאַל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 advcl _ Gloss=he|Ref=EXO_13:14!3|MId=o020130140031|Strong=7592|Frame=A1:020130140032;A0:020130140041;|Type=yiqtol 5 ְךָ֥ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 4 obj _ Gloss=will.ask.you|Ref=EXO_13:14!3|MId=o020130140032|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 6-7 בִנְךָ֛ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 בִנ בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 nsubj _ Gloss=son|Ref=EXO_13:14!4|MId=o020130140041|Strong=1121 7 ְךָ֛ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 6 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=EXO_13:14!4|MId=o020130140042|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 8 מָחָ֖ר מָחָר ADV _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 advmod _ Gloss=in.future.time|Ref=EXO_13:14!5|MId=o020130140051|Strong=4279 9-10 לֵאמֹ֣ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 לֵ לְ ADP _ ExtPos=SCONJ 11 mark _ Gloss=(cmp)|Ref=EXO_13:14!6|MId=o020130140061|Strong=3807a 10 אמֹ֣ר אָמַר VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 9 fixed _ Gloss=|Ref=EXO_13:14!6|MId=o020130140062|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:020130140041;|Type=infinitive_construct 11 מַה־ מָה PRON _ PronType=Int 4 ccomp _ Gloss=what?|Ref=EXO_13:14!7|MId=o020130140071|Strong=4100|Type=interrogative|SpaceAfter=No 12 זֹּ֑את זֹאת PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 11 nsubj _ Gloss=[is].this|Ref=EXO_13:14!8|MId=o020130140081|Strong=2063|Type=demonstrative 13-14 וְאָמַרְתָּ֣ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_13:14!9|MId=o020130140091|Strong=2050b 14 אָמַרְתָּ֣ אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 11 conj _ Gloss=you.will.say|Ref=EXO_13:14!9|MId=o020130140092|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:020130030042;|Type=weqatal 15-16 אֵלָ֔יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 אֵלָ֔י אֶל ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EXO_13:14!10|MId=o020130140101|Strong=0413 16 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 14 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=EXO_13:14!10|MId=o020130140102|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 17-18 בְּחֹ֣זֶק _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=by|Ref=EXO_13:14!11|MId=o020130140111|Strong=0871a 18 חֹ֣זֶק חֹזֶק NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 20 obl _ Gloss=strength|Ref=EXO_13:14!11|MId=o020130140112|Strong=2392 19 יָ֗ד יָד NOUN _ Number=Sing 18 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.hand|Ref=EXO_13:14!12|MId=o020130140121|Strong=3027 20-21 הוֹצִיאָ֧נוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 הוֹצִיא יָצָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 14 ccomp _ Gloss=he|Ref=EXO_13:14!13|MId=o020130140131|Strong=3318|Frame=A0:020130140132;AA:020130140141;|Type=qatal 21 ָ֧נוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 20 obj _ Gloss=brought.us.out|Ref=EXO_13:14!13|MId=o020130140132|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 22 יְהוָ֛ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 20 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=EXO_13:14!14|MId=o020130140141|Strong=3068 23-24 מִמִּצְרַ֖יִם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=EXO_13:14!15|MId=o020130140151|Strong=4480 24 מִּצְרַ֖יִם מִצְרַיִם PROPN _ _ 20 obl _ Gloss=Egypt|Ref=EXO_13:14!15|MId=o020130140152|Strong=4714 25-26 מִבֵּ֥ית _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 26 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=EXO_13:14!16|MId=o020130140161|Strong=4480 26 בֵּ֥ית בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 20 obl _ Gloss=a.house|Ref=EXO_13:14!16|MId=o020130140162|Strong=1004 27 עֲבָדִֽים עֶבֶד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 26 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.slaves|Ref=EXO_13:14!17|MId=o020130140171|Strong=5650|SpaceAfter=No 28 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 27 punct _ Ref=EXO_13:14!17 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: wh-question - act: ask - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: no - the frame alone: decl · assert · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יִשְׁאָל *he* | yiqtol · qal | בִנ *son* | ְךָ *will ask you* | | | | אמֹר | infinitive construct · qal | בִנ *son* | | | | | אָמַרְתָּ *you will say* | weqatal · qal | | | | | | הוֹצִיא *he* | qatal · hiphil | ָנוּ *brought us out* | | | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
