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, thou, I — and what happens in the verse to son, 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. וַיֹּ֥אמֶר ל֛וֹ יִצְחָ֥ק אָבִ֖יו מִי־אָ֑תָּה וַיֹּ֕אמֶר אֲנִ֛י בִּנְךָ֥ בְכֹֽרְךָ֖ עֵשָֽׂו׃ [And Isaac his father said unto him: 'Who art thou?' And he said: 'I am thy son, thy first-born, Esau.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.809/) ## 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:759 # text = וַיֹּ֥אמֶר ל֛וֹ יִצְחָ֥ק אָבִ֖יו מִי־אָ֑תָּה וַיֹּ֕אמֶר אֲנִ֛י בִּנְךָ֥ בְכֹֽרְךָ֖ עֵשָֽׂו׃ # verse = GEN.27.32 1-2 וַיֹּ֥אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_27:32!1|MId=o010270320011|Strong=2050b 2 יֹּ֥אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=GEN_27:32!1|MId=o010270320012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:010270320031;|Type=wayyiqtol 3-4 ל֛וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 ל לְ ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_27:32!2|MId=o010270320021|Strong=3807a 4 ֛וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 2 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=GEN_27:32!2|MId=o010270320022|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 5 יִצְחָ֥ק יִצְחָק PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Isaac|Ref=GEN_27:32!3|MId=o010270320031|Strong=3327 6-7 אָבִ֖יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 אָבִ֖י אָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 5 appos _ Gloss=father|Ref=GEN_27:32!4|MId=o010270320041|Strong=0001 7 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 6 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=GEN_27:32!4|MId=o010270320042|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 8 מִי־ מִי PRON _ PronType=Int 2 ccomp _ Gloss=who?|Ref=GEN_27:32!5|MId=o010270320051|Strong=4310|Type=interrogative|SpaceAfter=No 9 אָ֑תָּה אַתָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 8 nsubj _ Gloss=[are].you|Ref=GEN_27:32!6|MId=o010270320061|Strong=0859|Type=personal 10-11 וַיֹּ֕אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 11 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_27:32!7|MId=o010270320071|Strong=2050b 11 יֹּ֕אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=GEN_27:32!7|MId=o010270320072|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:010270300172;|Type=wayyiqtol 12 אֲנִ֛י אֲנִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 13 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=GEN_27:32!8|MId=o010270320081|Strong=0589|Type=personal 13-14 בִּנְךָ֥ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 בִּנ בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 ccomp _ Gloss=son|Ref=GEN_27:32!9|MId=o010270320091|Strong=1121 14 ְךָ֥ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 13 nmod:poss _ Gloss=[am].your|Ref=GEN_27:32!9|MId=o010270320092|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 15-16 בְכֹֽרְךָ֖ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 בְכֹֽר בְּכֹר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 appos _ Gloss=firstborn|Ref=GEN_27:32!10|MId=o010270320101|Strong=1060 16 ְךָ֖ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 15 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=GEN_27:32!10|MId=o010270320102|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 17 עֵשָֽׂו עֵשָׂו PROPN _ _ 13 appos _ Gloss=Esau|Ref=GEN_27:32!11|MId=o010270320111|Strong=6215|SpaceAfter=No 18 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 17 punct _ Ref=GEN_27:32!11 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: wh-question - act: ask - 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 | יִצְחָק *Isaac* | | | | | יֹּאמֶר *he said* | wayyiqtol · qal | | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
