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 — Jacob — and what happens in the verse to sun, one, head, place, 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. וַיִּפְגַּ֨ע בַּמָּק֜וֹם וַיָּ֤לֶן שָׁם֙ כִּי־בָ֣א הַשֶּׁ֔מֶשׁ וַיִּקַּח֙ מֵאַבְנֵ֣י הַמָּק֔וֹם וַיָּ֖שֶׂם מְרַֽאֲשֹׁתָ֑יו וַיִּשְׁכַּ֖ב בַּמָּק֥וֹם הַהֽוּא׃ [And he lighted upon the place, and tarried there all night, because the sun was set; and he took one of the stones of the place, and put it under his head, and lay down in that place to sleep.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.836/) ## 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:784 # text = וַיִּפְגַּ֨ע בַּמָּק֜וֹם וַיָּ֤לֶן שָׁם֙ כִּי־בָ֣א הַשֶּׁ֔מֶשׁ וַיִּקַּח֙ מֵאַבְנֵ֣י הַמָּק֔וֹם וַיָּ֖שֶׂם מְרַֽאֲשֹׁתָ֑יו וַיִּשְׁכַּ֖ב בַּמָּק֥וֹם הַהֽוּא׃ # verse = GEN.28.11 1-2 וַיִּפְגַּ֨ע _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_28:11!1|MId=o010280110011|Strong=2050b 2 יִּפְגַּ֨ע פָּגַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.reached|Ref=GEN_28:11!1|MId=o010280110012|Strong=6293|Frame=A0:010280100021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3-5 בַּמָּק֜וֹם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=(in)|Ref=GEN_28:11!2|MId=o010280110021|Strong=0871a 4 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 5 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=GEN_28:11!2|MId=o010280110021ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 5 מָּק֜וֹם מָקוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=place|Ref=GEN_28:11!2|MId=o010280110022|Strong=4725 6-7 וַיָּ֤לֶן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 7 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_28:11!3|MId=o010280110031|Strong=2050b 7 יָּ֤לֶן לין VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.stayed.the.night|Ref=GEN_28:11!3|MId=o010280110032|Strong=3885a|Frame=A0:010280100021;|Type=wayyiqtol 8 שָׁם֙ שָׁם ADV _ _ 7 advmod _ Gloss=there|Ref=GEN_28:11!4|MId=o010280110041|Strong=8033 9 כִּי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 10 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=GEN_28:11!5|MId=o010280110051|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 10 בָ֣א בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 advcl _ Gloss=it.had.gone|Ref=GEN_28:11!6|MId=o010280110061|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:010280110072;|Type=qatal 11-12 הַשֶּׁ֔מֶשׁ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 12 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=GEN_28:11!7|MId=o010280110071|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 12 שֶּׁ֔מֶשׁ שֶׁמֶשׁ NOUN _ Number=Sing 10 nsubj _ Gloss=sun|Ref=GEN_28:11!7|MId=o010280110072|Strong=8121 13-14 וַיִּקַּח֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_28:11!8|MId=o010280110081|Strong=2050b 14 יִּקַּח֙ לָקַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.took|Ref=GEN_28:11!8|MId=o010280110082|Strong=3947|Frame=A0:010280100021;|Type=wayyiqtol 15-16 מֵאַבְנֵ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 מֵ מִן ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=one|Ref=GEN_28:11!9|MId=o010280110091|Strong=4480 16 אַבְנֵ֣י אֶבֶן NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 14 obl _ Gloss=of.the.stones|Ref=GEN_28:11!9|MId=o010280110092|Strong=0068 17-18 הַמָּק֔וֹם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 18 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=GEN_28:11!10|MId=o010280110101|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 18 מָּק֔וֹם מָקוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.place|Ref=GEN_28:11!10|MId=o010280110102|Strong=4725 19-20 וַיָּ֖שֶׂם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 20 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_28:11!11|MId=o010280110111|Strong=2050b 20 יָּ֖שֶׂם שׂים VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.put.[it]|Ref=GEN_28:11!11|MId=o010280110112|Strong=7760|Frame=A0:010280100021;A1:010280180062;|Type=wayyiqtol 21-22 מְרַֽאֲשֹׁתָ֑יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 מְרַֽאֲשֹׁתָ֑י מְרַאֲשָׁוֹת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 20 obl _ Gloss=of.his.head|Ref=GEN_28:11!12|MId=o010280110121|Strong=4763 22 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 21 nmod:poss _ Gloss=the.place|Ref=GEN_28:11!12|MId=o010280110122|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 23-24 וַיִּשְׁכַּ֖ב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 24 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_28:11!13|MId=o010280110131|Strong=2050b 24 יִּשְׁכַּ֖ב שָׁכַב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.lay.down|Ref=GEN_28:11!13|MId=o010280110132|Strong=7901|Frame=A0:010280100021;|Type=wayyiqtol 25-27 בַּמָּק֥וֹם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 27 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=GEN_28:11!14|MId=o010280110141|Strong=0871a 26 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 27 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=GEN_28:11!14|MId=o010280110141ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 27 מָּק֥וֹם מָקוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 24 obl _ Gloss=place|Ref=GEN_28:11!14|MId=o010280110142|Strong=4725 28-29 הַהֽוּא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 28 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 29 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=GEN_28:11!15|MId=o010280110151|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 29 הֽוּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 27 det _ Gloss=that|Ref=GEN_28:11!15|MId=o010280110152|Strong=1931|Type=personal 30 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 29 punct _ Ref=GEN_28:11!15 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
