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 — LORD, hand, thy — and what happens in the verse to hand, bosom, 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. וַיֹּאמֶר֩ יְהוָ֨ה ל֜וֹ ע֗וֹד הָֽבֵא־נָ֤א יָֽדְךָ֙ בְּחֵיקֶ֔ךָ וַיָּבֵ֥א יָד֖וֹ בְּחֵיק֑וֹ וַיּ֣וֹצִאָ֔הּ וְהִנֵּ֥ה יָד֖וֹ מְצֹרַ֥עַת כַּשָּֽׁלֶג׃ [And the LORD said furthermore unto him: 'Put now thy hand into thy bosom.' And he put his hand into his bosom; and when he took it out, behold, his hand was leprous, as white as snow.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/EXO.84/) ## 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:74 # text = וַיֹּאמֶר֩ יְהוָ֨ה ל֜וֹ ע֗וֹד הָֽבֵא־נָ֤א יָֽדְךָ֙ בְּחֵיקֶ֔ךָ וַיָּבֵ֥א יָד֖וֹ בְּחֵיק֑וֹ וַיּ֣וֹצִאָ֔הּ וְהִנֵּ֥ה יָד֖וֹ מְצֹרַ֥עַת כַּשָּֽׁלֶג׃ # verse = EXO.4.6 1-2 וַיֹּאמֶר֩ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_4:6!1|MId=o020040060011|Strong=2050b 2 יֹּאמֶר֩ אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=EXO_4:6!1|MId=o020040060012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:020040060021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 יְהוָ֨ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=EXO_4:6!2|MId=o020040060021|Strong=3068 4-5 ל֜וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 ל לְ ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EXO_4:6!3|MId=o020040060031|Strong=3807a 5 ֜וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 2 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=EXO_4:6!3|MId=o020040060032|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 6 ע֗וֹד עוֹד ADV _ _ 2 advmod _ Gloss=again|Ref=EXO_4:6!4|MId=o020040060041|Strong=5750 7 הָֽבֵא־ בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=2 2 ccomp _ Gloss=put|Ref=EXO_4:6!5|MId=o020040060051|Strong=0935|Frame=AA:020040040041;A0:020040060071;|Type=imperative|SpaceAfter=No 8 נָ֤א נָא INTJ _ _ 7 discourse _ Gloss=please|Ref=EXO_4:6!6|MId=o020040060061|Strong=4994|Type=exhortation 9-10 יָֽדְךָ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 יָֽד יָד NOUN _ Number=Sing 7 obj _ Gloss=hand|Ref=EXO_4:6!7|MId=o020040060071|Strong=3027 10 ְךָ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 9 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=EXO_4:6!7|MId=o020040060072|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 11-13 בְּחֵיקֶ֔ךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=EXO_4:6!8|MId=o020040060081|Strong=0871a 12 חֵיק חֵיק NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 7 obl _ Gloss=bosom|Ref=EXO_4:6!8|MId=o020040060082|Strong=2436 13 ֶ֔ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 12 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=EXO_4:6!8|MId=o020040060083|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 14-15 וַיָּבֵ֥א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 15 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_4:6!9|MId=o020040060091|Strong=2050b 15 יָּבֵ֥א בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.put|Ref=EXO_4:6!9|MId=o020040060092|Strong=0935|Frame=AA:020040040041;A0:020040060101;|Type=wayyiqtol 16-17 יָד֖וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 יָד יָד NOUN _ Number=Sing 15 obj _ Gloss=hand|Ref=EXO_4:6!10|MId=o020040060101|Strong=3027 17 ֖וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 16 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=EXO_4:6!10|MId=o020040060102|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 18-20 בְּחֵיק֑וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=EXO_4:6!11|MId=o020040060111|Strong=0871a 19 חֵיק חֵיק NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 15 obl _ Gloss=bosom|Ref=EXO_4:6!11|MId=o020040060112|Strong=2436 20 ֑וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 19 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=EXO_4:6!11|MId=o020040060113|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 21-23 וַיּ֣וֹצִאָ֔הּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 22 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_4:6!12|MId=o020040060121|Strong=2050b 22 יּ֣וֹצִא יָצָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he|Ref=EXO_4:6!12|MId=o020040060122|Strong=3318|Frame=AA:020040040041;A0:020040060123;|Type=wayyiqtol 23 ָ֔הּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 22 obj _ Gloss=brought.it.out|Ref=EXO_4:6!12|MId=o020040060123|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 24-25 וְהִנֵּ֥ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 28 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_4:6!13|MId=o020040060131|Strong=2050b 25 הִנֵּ֥ה הִנֵּה INTJ _ _ 28 discourse _ Gloss=there!|Ref=EXO_4:6!13|MId=o020040060132|Strong=2009|Type=demonstrative 26-27 יָד֖וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 יָד יָד NOUN _ Number=Sing 28 nsubj _ Gloss=hand|Ref=EXO_4:6!14|MId=o020040060141|Strong=3027 27 ֖וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 26 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=EXO_4:6!14|MId=o020040060142|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 28 מְצֹרַ֥עַת צָרַע VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=PUAL|Number=Sing 2 conj _ Gloss=[was].leprous|Ref=EXO_4:6!15|MId=o020040060151|Strong=6879|Frame=A1:020040060141;|Type=participle_passive 29-31 כַּשָּֽׁלֶג _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 29 כַּ כְּ ADP _ _ 31 case _ Gloss=like|Ref=EXO_4:6!16|MId=o020040060161|Strong=3509a 30 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 31 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=EXO_4:6!16|MId=o020040060161ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 31 שָּֽׁלֶג שֶׁלֶג NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 28 obl _ Gloss=snow|Ref=EXO_4:6!16|MId=o020040060162|Strong=7950 32 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 31 punct _ Ref=EXO_4:6!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
