Exodus 26:31 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.26.31/) [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 26](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/EXO/26/) / 26:31 # Exodus 26:31 שְׁמוֹת **Who acts:** thou, skilful workman · **What happens:** make, twine, work · **To what, where:** veil This is Exodus 26:31 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 — thou, skilful workman — and what happens in the verse to veil, 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. וְעָשִׂ֣יתָ פָרֹ֗כֶת תְּכֵ֧לֶת וְאַרְגָּמָ֛ן וְתוֹלַ֥עַת שָׁנִ֖י וְשֵׁ֣שׁ מָשְׁזָ֑ר מַעֲשֵׂ֥ה חֹשֵׁ֛ב יַעֲשֶׂ֥ה אֹתָ֖הּ כְּרֻבִֽים׃ [And thou shalt make a veil of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen; with cherubim the work of the skilful workman shall it be made.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/EXO.771/) ## 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:733 # text = וְעָשִׂ֣יתָ פָרֹ֗כֶת תְּכֵ֧לֶת וְאַרְגָּמָ֛ן וְתוֹלַ֥עַת שָׁנִ֖י וְשֵׁ֣שׁ מָשְׁזָ֑ר מַעֲשֵׂ֥ה חֹשֵׁ֛ב יַעֲשֶׂ֥ה אֹתָ֖הּ כְּרֻבִֽים׃ # verse = EXO.26.31 1-2 וְעָשִׂ֣יתָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_26:31!1|MId=o020260310011|Strong=2050b 2 עָשִׂ֣יתָ עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=you.will.make|Ref=EXO_26:31!1|MId=o020260310012|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:020250010041;A1:020260310021;|Type=weqatal 3 פָרֹ֗כֶת פָּרֹכֶת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=a.curtain|Ref=EXO_26:31!2|MId=o020260310021|Strong=6532 4 תְּכֵ֧לֶת תְּכֵלֶת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=violet.stuff|Ref=EXO_26:31!3|MId=o020260310031|Strong=8504 5-6 וְאַרְגָּמָ֛ן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 6 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_26:31!4|MId=o020260310041|Strong=2050b 6 אַרְגָּמָ֛ן אַרְגָּמָן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 conj _ Gloss=purple|Ref=EXO_26:31!4|MId=o020260310042|Strong=0713 7-8 וְתוֹלַ֥עַת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_26:31!5|MId=o020260310051|Strong=2050b 8 תוֹלַ֥עַת תֹּולַעַת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 4 conj _ Gloss=scarlet.stuff|Ref=EXO_26:31!5|MId=o020260310052|Strong=8438 9 שָׁנִ֖י שָׁנִי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.scarlet|Ref=EXO_26:31!6|MId=o020260310061|Strong=8144 10-11 וְשֵׁ֣שׁ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 11 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_26:31!7|MId=o020260310071|Strong=2050b 11 שֵׁ֣שׁ שֵׁשׁ NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 4 conj _ Gloss=fine.linen|Ref=EXO_26:31!7|MId=o020260310072|Strong=8336|Type=cardinal_number 12 מָשְׁזָ֑ר שָׁזַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HOPHAL|Number=Sing 11 nmod _ Gloss=twisted|Ref=EXO_26:31!8|MId=o020260310081|Strong=7806|Frame=A1:020260310072;|Type=participle_passive 13 מַעֲשֵׂ֥ה מַעֲשֶׂה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 15 obl _ Gloss=[the].work|Ref=EXO_26:31!9|MId=o020260310091|Strong=4639 14 חֹשֵׁ֛ב חָשַׁב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 13 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.a.skillful.worker|Ref=EXO_26:31!10|MId=o020260310101|Strong=2803a|Type=participle_active 15 יַעֲשֶׂ֥ה עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 parataxis _ Gloss=someone.will.make|Ref=EXO_26:31!11|MId=o020260310111|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:;A1:020260310122;|Type=yiqtol 16-17 אֹתָ֖הּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 אֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=|Ref=EXO_26:31!12|MId=o020260310121|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 17 ָ֖הּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 15 obj _ Gloss=it|Ref=EXO_26:31!12|MId=o020260310122|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 18 כְּרֻבִֽים כְּרוּב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 13 appos _ Gloss=cherubim|Ref=EXO_26:31!13|MId=o020260310131|Strong=3742|SpaceAfter=No 19 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 18 punct _ Ref=EXO_26:31!13 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | עָשִׂיתָ *you will make* | weqatal · qal | | פָרֹכֶת *a curtain* | | | | מָשְׁזָר *twisted* | participle passive · hophal | | שֵׁשׁ *fine linen* | | | | יַעֲשֶׂה *someone will make* | yiqtol · qal | | ָהּ *it* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
