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 — Rebekah, I, Jacob, life — and what happens in the verse to Isaac, wife, good, me, 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. וַתֹּ֤אמֶר רִבְקָה֙ אֶל־יִצְחָ֔ק קַ֣צְתִּי בְחַיַּ֔י מִפְּנֵ֖י בְּנ֣וֹת חֵ֑ת אִם־לֹקֵ֣חַ יַ֠עֲקֹב אִשָּׁ֨ה מִבְּנֽוֹת־חֵ֤ת כָּאֵ֙לֶּה֙ מִבְּנ֣וֹת הָאָ֔רֶץ לָ֥מָּה לִּ֖י חַיִּֽים׃ [And Rebekah said to Isaac: 'I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.824/) [If Jacob take a wife of the daughters of Heth, such as these, of the daughters of the land, what good shall my life do me?'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.825/) ## 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:773 # text = וַתֹּ֤אמֶר רִבְקָה֙ אֶל־יִצְחָ֔ק קַ֣צְתִּי בְחַיַּ֔י מִפְּנֵ֖י בְּנ֣וֹת חֵ֑ת אִם־לֹקֵ֣חַ יַ֠עֲקֹב אִשָּׁ֨ה מִבְּנֽוֹת־חֵ֤ת כָּאֵ֙לֶּה֙ מִבְּנ֣וֹת הָאָ֔רֶץ לָ֥מָּה לִּ֖י חַיִּֽים׃ # verse = GEN.27.46 1-2 וַתֹּ֤אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_27:46!1|MId=o010270460011|Strong=2050b 2 תֹּ֤אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=she.said|Ref=GEN_27:46!1|MId=o010270460012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:010270460021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 רִבְקָה֙ רִבְקָה PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Rebekah|Ref=GEN_27:46!2|MId=o010270460021|Strong=7259 4 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_27:46!3|MId=o010270460031|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 5 יִצְחָ֔ק יִצְחָק PROPN _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=Isaac|Ref=GEN_27:46!4|MId=o010270460041|Strong=3327 6 קַ֣צְתִּי קוּץ VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 2 ccomp _ Gloss=I.loathe|Ref=GEN_27:46!5|MId=o010270460051|Strong=6973|Frame=A0:010270460021;|Type=qatal 7-9 בְחַיַּ֔י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 בְ בְּ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=(in)|Ref=GEN_27:46!6|MId=o010270460061|Strong=0871a 8 חַיּ חַיִּים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 6 obl _ Gloss=life|Ref=GEN_27:46!6|MId=o010270460062|Strong=2416 9 ַ֔י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 8 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=GEN_27:46!6|MId=o010270460063|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 10-11 מִפְּנֵ֖י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=because|Ref=GEN_27:46!7|MId=o010270460071|Strong=4480 11 פְּנֵ֖י פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 6 obl _ Gloss=of|Ref=GEN_27:46!7|MId=o010270460072|Strong=6440 12 בְּנ֣וֹת בַּת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 11 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.daughters|Ref=GEN_27:46!8|MId=o010270460081|Strong=1323 13 חֵ֑ת חֵת PROPN _ _ 12 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Heth|Ref=GEN_27:46!9|MId=o010270460091|Strong=2845 14 אִם־ אִם SCONJ _ _ 15 mark _ Gloss=if|Ref=GEN_27:46!10|MId=o010270460101|Strong=0518|SpaceAfter=No 15 לֹקֵ֣חַ לָקַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 28 advcl _ Gloss=[is].taking|Ref=GEN_27:46!11|MId=o010270460111|Strong=3947|Frame=A0:010270460121;A1:010270460131;|Type=participle_active 16 יַ֠עֲקֹב יַעֲקֹב PROPN _ _ 15 nsubj _ Gloss=Jacob|Ref=GEN_27:46!12|MId=o010270460121|Strong=3290 17 אִשָּׁ֨ה אִשָּׁה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 15 obj _ Gloss=a.wife|Ref=GEN_27:46!13|MId=o010270460131|Strong=0802 18-19 מִבְּנֽוֹת־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=GEN_27:46!14|MId=o010270460141|Strong=4480 19 בְּנֽוֹת־ בַּת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 15 obl _ Gloss=the.daughters|Ref=GEN_27:46!14|MId=o010270460142|Strong=1323 20 חֵ֤ת חֵת PROPN _ _ 19 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Heth|Ref=GEN_27:46!15|MId=o010270460151|Strong=2845 21-22 כָּאֵ֙לֶּה֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 כָּ כְּ ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=like|Ref=GEN_27:46!16|MId=o010270460161|Strong=3509a 22 אֵ֙לֶּה֙ אֵלֶּה PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|PronType=Dem 15 obl _ Gloss=these|Ref=GEN_27:46!16|MId=o010270460162|Strong=0428|Type=demonstrative 23-24 מִבְּנ֣וֹת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=GEN_27:46!17|MId=o010270460171|Strong=4480 24 בְּנ֣וֹת בַּת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 15 obl _ Gloss=the.daughters|Ref=GEN_27:46!17|MId=o010270460172|Strong=1323 25-26 הָאָ֔רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 26 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=GEN_27:46!18|MId=o010270460181|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 26 אָ֔רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 24 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.land|Ref=GEN_27:46!18|MId=o010270460182|Strong=0776 27-28 לָ֥מָּה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 לָ֥ לָמָה ADP _ _ 28 case _ Gloss=|Ref=GEN_27:46!19|MId=o010270460191|Strong=3807a 28 מָּה מָה PRON _ PronType=Int 6 parataxis _ Gloss=why?|Ref=GEN_27:46!19|MId=o010270460192|Strong=4100|Type=interrogative 29-30 לִּ֖י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 29 לּ לְ ADP _ _ 30 case _ Gloss=[belongs].to|Ref=GEN_27:46!20|MId=o010270460201|Strong=3807a 30 ִ֖י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 28 obl _ Gloss=me|Ref=GEN_27:46!20|MId=o010270460202|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 31 חַיִּֽים חַיִּים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 28 nsubj _ Gloss=life|Ref=GEN_27:46!21|MId=o010270460211|Strong=2416|SpaceAfter=No 32 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 31 punct _ Ref=GEN_27:46!21 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | תֹּאמֶר *she said* | wayyiqtol · qal | רִבְקָה *Rebekah* | | | | | קַצְתִּי *I loathe* | qatal · qal | רִבְקָה *Rebekah* | | | | | לֹקֵחַ *\[is\] taking* | participle active · qal | יַעֲקֹב *Jacob* | אִשָּׁה *a wife* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
