# Genesis 26:22 בְּרֵאשִׁית

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** Isaac, wells, LORD, we · **What happens:** remove, dig, not strive, call, say, make · **To what, where:** thence, well, name, room, land · **Speech:** someone speaks in this verse

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Genesis 26:22 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 — Isaac, wells, LORD, we — and what happens in the verse to thence, well, name, room, 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 50 chapters of Genesis on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

[And he removed from thence, and digged another well; and for that they strove not.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.756/) [And he called the name of it Rehoboth; and he said: 'For now the LORD hath made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.757/)

## The tree {#tree}

<!-- .note -->
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.

MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant. A0 is the one who acts, A1 what the act is done to or is about, A2 a further participant; AA, with a causative verb, the one who makes it happen.
