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 — they, congregation, wilderness, fifteenth day, their — and what happens in the verse to journey, Elim, land, 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. וַיִּסְעוּ֙ מֵֽאֵילִ֔ם וַיָּבֹ֜אוּ כָּל־עֲדַ֤ת בְּנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ אֶל־מִדְבַּר־סִ֔ין אֲשֶׁ֥ר בֵּין־אֵילִ֖ם וּבֵ֣ין סִינָ֑י בַּחֲמִשָּׁ֨ה עָשָׂ֥ר יוֹם֙ לַחֹ֣דֶשׁ הַשֵּׁנִ֔י לְצֵאתָ֖ם מֵאֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרָֽיִם׃ [And they took their journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the children of Israel came unto the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departing out of the land of Egypt.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/EXO.446/) ## 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:415 # text = וַיִּסְעוּ֙ מֵֽאֵילִ֔ם וַיָּבֹ֜אוּ כָּל־עֲדַ֤ת בְּנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ אֶל־מִדְבַּר־סִ֔ין אֲשֶׁ֥ר בֵּין־אֵילִ֖ם וּבֵ֣ין סִינָ֑י בַּחֲמִשָּׁ֨ה עָשָׂ֥ר יוֹם֙ לַחֹ֣דֶשׁ הַשֵּׁנִ֔י לְצֵאתָ֖ם מֵאֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרָֽיִם׃ # verse = EXO.16.1 1-2 וַיִּסְעוּ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_16:1!1|MId=o020160010011|Strong=2050b 2 יִּסְעוּ֙ נָסַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.set.out|Ref=EXO_16:1!1|MId=o020160010012|Strong=5265|Frame=A0:020160010051;|Type=wayyiqtol 3-4 מֵֽאֵילִ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 מֵֽ מִן ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=EXO_16:1!2|MId=o020160010021|Strong=4480 4 אֵילִ֔ם אֵילִם PROPN _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=Elim|Ref=EXO_16:1!2|MId=o020160010022|Strong=0362 5-6 וַיָּבֹ֜אוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 6 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_16:1!3|MId=o020160010031|Strong=2050b 6 יָּבֹ֜אוּ בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they.came|Ref=EXO_16:1!3|MId=o020160010032|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:020160010051;|Type=wayyiqtol 7 כָּל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 nsubj _ Gloss=all|Ref=EXO_16:1!4|MId=o020160010041|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 8 עֲדַ֤ת עֵדָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 7 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.congregation|Ref=EXO_16:1!5|MId=o020160010051|Strong=5712 9 בְּנֵֽי־ בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.the.people|Ref=EXO_16:1!6|MId=o020160010061|Strong=1121|SpaceAfter=No 10 יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 9 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Israel|Ref=EXO_16:1!7|MId=o020160010071|Strong=3478 11 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EXO_16:1!8|MId=o020160010081|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 12 מִדְבַּר־ מִדְבָּר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 obl _ Gloss=the.wilderness|Ref=EXO_16:1!9|MId=o020160010091|Strong=4057|SpaceAfter=No 13 סִ֔ין סִין PROPN _ _ 12 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Sin|Ref=EXO_16:1!10|MId=o020160010101|Strong=5512a 14 אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 16 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=EXO_16:1!11|MId=o020160010111|Strong=0834|Type=relative 15 בֵּין־ בֵּין ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=[is].between|Ref=EXO_16:1!12|MId=o020160010121|Strong=0996|SpaceAfter=No 16 אֵילִ֖ם אֵילִם PROPN _ _ 12 acl:relcl _ Gloss=Elim|Ref=EXO_16:1!13|MId=o020160010131|Strong=0362 17-18 וּבֵ֣ין _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 19 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_16:1!14|MId=o020160010141|Strong=2050b 18 בֵ֣ין בֵּין ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=between|Ref=EXO_16:1!14|MId=o020160010142|Strong=0996 19 סִינָ֑י סִינַי PROPN _ _ 16 conj _ Gloss=Sinai|Ref=EXO_16:1!15|MId=o020160010151|Strong=5514 20-21 בַּחֲמִשָּׁ֨ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=on.[the]|Ref=EXO_16:1!16|MId=o020160010161|Strong=0871a 21 חֲמִשָּׁ֨ה חָמֵשׁ NUM _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 23 nummod _ Gloss=fif-|Ref=EXO_16:1!16|MId=o020160010162|Strong=2568|Type=cardinal_number 22 עָשָׂ֥ר עָשָׂר NUM _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 21 flat _ Gloss=teen|Ref=EXO_16:1!17|MId=o020160010171|Strong=6240|Type=cardinal_number 23 יוֹם֙ יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 obl _ Gloss=day|Ref=EXO_16:1!18|MId=o020160010181|Strong=3117 24-26 לַחֹ֣דֶשׁ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 26 case _ Gloss=of|Ref=EXO_16:1!19|MId=o020160010191|Strong=3807a 25 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 26 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EXO_16:1!19|MId=o020160010191ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 26 חֹ֣דֶשׁ חֹדֶשׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 23 nmod _ Gloss=month|Ref=EXO_16:1!19|MId=o020160010192|Strong=2320 27-28 הַשֵּׁנִ֔י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 28 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=EXO_16:1!20|MId=o020160010201|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 28 שֵּׁנִ֔י שֵׁנִי NUM _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 26 nummod _ Gloss=second|Ref=EXO_16:1!20|MId=o020160010202|Strong=8145|Type=ordinal_number 29-31 לְצֵאתָ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 29 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 30 case _ Gloss=of|Ref=EXO_16:1!21|MId=o020160010211|Strong=3807a 30 צֵאת יָצָא VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 6 advcl _ Gloss=their.going|Ref=EXO_16:1!21|MId=o020160010212|Strong=3318|Frame=A0:020160010213;|Type=infinitive_construct 31 ָ֖ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 30 nsubj _ Gloss=out|Ref=EXO_16:1!21|MId=o020160010213|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 32-33 מֵאֶ֥רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 32 מֵ מִן ADP _ _ 33 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=EXO_16:1!22|MId=o020160010221|Strong=4480 33 אֶ֥רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 30 obl _ Gloss=the.land|Ref=EXO_16:1!22|MId=o020160010222|Strong=0776 34 מִצְרָֽיִם מִצְרַיִם PROPN _ _ 33 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Egypt|Ref=EXO_16:1!23|MId=o020160010231|Strong=4714|SpaceAfter=No 35 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 34 punct _ Ref=EXO_16:1!23 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
