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 — wilderness, Abimelech, God, thou — and what happens in the verse to all, 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 50 chapters of Genesis on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַֽיְהִי֙ בָּעֵ֣ת הַהִ֔וא וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֲבִימֶ֗לֶךְ וּפִיכֹל֙ שַׂר־צְבָא֔וֹ אֶל־אַבְרָהָ֖ם לֵאמֹ֑ר אֱלֹהִ֣ים עִמְּךָ֔ בְּכֹ֥ל אֲשֶׁר־אַתָּ֖ה עֹשֶֽׂה׃ [And it came to pass at that time, that Abimelech and Phicol the captain of his host spoke unto Abraham, saying: 'God is with thee in all that thou doest.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.563/) ## 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:GEN:535 # text = וַֽיְהִי֙ בָּעֵ֣ת הַהִ֔וא וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֲבִימֶ֗לֶךְ וּפִיכֹל֙ שַׂר־צְבָא֔וֹ אֶל־אַבְרָהָ֖ם לֵאמֹ֑ר אֱלֹהִ֣ים עִמְּךָ֔ בְּכֹ֥ל אֲשֶׁר־אַתָּ֖ה עֹשֶֽׂה׃ # verse = GEN.21.22 1-2 וַֽיְהִי֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַֽ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_21:22!1|MId=o010210220011|Strong=2050b 2 יְהִי֙ הָיָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.was|Ref=GEN_21:22!1|MId=o010210220012|Strong=1961|Type=wayyiqtol 3-5 בָּעֵ֣ת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 בָּ בְּ ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=at|Ref=GEN_21:22!2|MId=o010210220021|Strong=0871a 4 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 5 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=GEN_21:22!2|MId=o010210220021ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 5 עֵ֣ת עֵת NOUN _ Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=time|Ref=GEN_21:22!2|MId=o010210220022|Strong=6256 6-7 הַהִ֔וא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 7 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=GEN_21:22!3|MId=o010210220031|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 7 הִ֔וא הִיא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 5 det _ Gloss=that|Ref=GEN_21:22!3|MId=o010210220032|Strong=1931a|Type=personal 8-9 וַיֹּ֣אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 9 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_21:22!4|MId=o010210220041|Strong=2050b 9 יֹּ֣אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=GEN_21:22!4|MId=o010210220042|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:010210220051;010210220062;|Type=wayyiqtol 10 אֲבִימֶ֗לֶךְ אֲבִימֶלֶךְ PROPN _ _ 9 nsubj _ Gloss=Abimelech|Ref=GEN_21:22!5|MId=o010210220051|Strong=0040 11-12 וּפִיכֹל֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 12 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_21:22!6|MId=o010210220061|Strong=2050b 12 פִיכֹל֙ פִּיכֹל PROPN _ _ 10 conj _ Gloss=Phicol|Ref=GEN_21:22!6|MId=o010210220062|Strong=6369 13 שַׂר־ שַׂר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 appos _ Gloss=the.commander|Ref=GEN_21:22!7|MId=o010210220071|Strong=8269|SpaceAfter=No 14-15 צְבָא֔וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 צְבָא צָבָא NOUN _ Number=Sing 13 compound:smixut _ Gloss=his.army|Ref=GEN_21:22!8|MId=o010210220081|Strong=6635 15 ֔וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 14 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=GEN_21:22!8|MId=o010210220082|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 16 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_21:22!9|MId=o010210220091|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 17 אַבְרָהָ֖ם אַבְרָהָם PROPN _ _ 9 obl _ Gloss=Abraham|Ref=GEN_21:22!10|MId=o010210220101|Strong=0085 18-19 לֵאמֹ֑ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 לֵ לְ ADP _ ExtPos=SCONJ 22 mark _ Gloss=(cmp)|Ref=GEN_21:22!11|MId=o010210220111|Strong=3807a 19 אמֹ֑ר אָמַר VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 18 fixed _ Gloss=|Ref=GEN_21:22!11|MId=o010210220112|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:010210220051;|Type=infinitive_construct 20 אֱלֹהִ֣ים אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 22 nsubj _ Gloss=God|Ref=GEN_21:22!12|MId=o010210220121|Strong=0430 21-22 עִמְּךָ֔ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 עִמּ עִם ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=[is].with|Ref=GEN_21:22!13|MId=o010210220131|Strong=5973 22 ְךָ֔ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 9 ccomp _ Gloss=you|Ref=GEN_21:22!13|MId=o010210220132|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 23-24 בְּכֹ֥ל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=GEN_21:22!14|MId=o010210220141|Strong=0871a 24 כֹ֥ל כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 22 obl _ Gloss=all|Ref=GEN_21:22!14|MId=o010210220142|Strong=3605 25 אֲשֶׁר־ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 27 mark _ Gloss=that|Ref=GEN_21:22!15|MId=o010210220151|Strong=0834|Type=relative|SpaceAfter=No 26 אַתָּ֖ה אַתָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 27 nsubj _ Gloss=you|Ref=GEN_21:22!16|MId=o010210220161|Strong=0859|Type=personal 27 עֹשֶֽׂה עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 24 acl:relcl _ Gloss=[are].doing|Ref=GEN_21:22!17|MId=o010210220171|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:010210220161;A1:010210220142;|Type=participle_active|SpaceAfter=No 28 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 27 punct _ Ref=GEN_21:22!17 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: no - the frame alone: decl · narrate · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יֹּאמֶר *he said* | wayyiqtol · qal | אֲבִימֶלֶךְ *Abimelech* + פִיכֹל *Phicol* | | | | | אמֹר | infinitive construct · qal | אֲבִימֶלֶךְ *Abimelech* | | | | | עֹשֶֽׂה *\[are\] doing* | participle active · qal | אַתָּה *you* | כֹל *all* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
