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 — LORD, I, thou — and what happens in the verse to LORD, 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. וְהִנֵּ֨ה יְהוָ֜ה נִצָּ֣ב עָלָיו֮ וַיֹּאמַר֒ אֲנִ֣י יְהוָ֗ה אֱלֹהֵי֙ אַבְרָהָ֣ם אָבִ֔יךָ וֵאלֹהֵ֖י יִצְחָ֑ק הָאָ֗רֶץ אֲשֶׁ֤ר אַתָּה֙ שֹׁכֵ֣ב עָלֶ֔יהָ לְךָ֥ אֶתְּנֶ֖נָּה וּלְזַרְעֶֽךָ׃ [And, behold, the LORD stood beside him, and said: 'I am the LORD, the God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.838/) [The land whereon thou liest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.839/) ## 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:786 # text = וְהִנֵּ֨ה יְהוָ֜ה נִצָּ֣ב עָלָיו֮ וַיֹּאמַר֒ אֲנִ֣י יְהוָ֗ה אֱלֹהֵי֙ אַבְרָהָ֣ם אָבִ֔יךָ וֵאלֹהֵ֖י יִצְחָ֑ק הָאָ֗רֶץ אֲשֶׁ֤ר אַתָּה֙ שֹׁכֵ֣ב עָלֶ֔יהָ לְךָ֥ אֶתְּנֶ֖נָּה וּלְזַרְעֶֽךָ׃ # verse = GEN.28.13 1-2 וְהִנֵּ֨ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 4 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_28:13!1|MId=o010280130011|Strong=2050b 2 הִנֵּ֨ה הִנֵּה INTJ _ _ 4 discourse _ Gloss=there!|Ref=GEN_28:13!1|MId=o010280130012|Strong=2009|Type=demonstrative 3 יְהוָ֜ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 4 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=GEN_28:13!2|MId=o010280130021|Strong=3068 4 נִצָּ֣ב נָצַב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing 0 root _ Gloss=[was].standing|Ref=GEN_28:13!3|MId=o010280130031|Strong=5324|Frame=A0:010280130021;|Type=participle_active 5-6 עָלָיו֮ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 עָלָי עַל ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=GEN_28:13!4|MId=o010280130041|Strong=5921 6 ו֮ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 4 obl _ Gloss=it|Ref=GEN_28:13!4|MId=o010280130042|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 7-8 וַיֹּאמַר֒ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_28:13!5|MId=o010280130051|Strong=2050b 8 יֹּאמַר֒ אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 4 conj _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=GEN_28:13!5|MId=o010280130052|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:010280130021;|Type=wayyiqtol 9 אֲנִ֣י אֲנִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 10 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=GEN_28:13!6|MId=o010280130061|Strong=0589|Type=personal 10 יְהוָ֗ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 8 ccomp _ Gloss=[am].Yahweh|Ref=GEN_28:13!7|MId=o010280130071|Strong=3068 11 אֱלֹהֵי֙ אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 10 appos _ Gloss=the.God|Ref=GEN_28:13!8|MId=o010280130081|Strong=0430 12 אַבְרָהָ֣ם אַבְרָהָם PROPN _ _ 11 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Abraham|Ref=GEN_28:13!9|MId=o010280130091|Strong=0085 13-14 אָבִ֔יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 אָבִ֔י אָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 appos _ Gloss=father|Ref=GEN_28:13!10|MId=o010280130101|Strong=0001 14 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 13 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=GEN_28:13!10|MId=o010280130102|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 15-16 וֵאלֹהֵ֖י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 וֵ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_28:13!11|MId=o010280130111|Strong=2050b 16 אלֹהֵ֖י אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 11 conj _ Gloss=the.God|Ref=GEN_28:13!11|MId=o010280130112|Strong=0430 17 יִצְחָ֑ק יִצְחָק PROPN _ _ 16 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Isaac|Ref=GEN_28:13!12|MId=o010280130121|Strong=3327 18-19 הָאָ֗רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 19 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=GEN_28:13!13|MId=o010280130131|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 19 אָ֗רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 27 dislocated _ Gloss=land|Ref=GEN_28:13!13|MId=o010280130132|Strong=0776 20 אֲשֶׁ֤ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 22 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=GEN_28:13!14|MId=o010280130141|Strong=0834|Type=relative 21 אַתָּה֙ אַתָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 22 nsubj _ Gloss=you|Ref=GEN_28:13!15|MId=o010280130151|Strong=0859|Type=personal 22 שֹׁכֵ֣ב שָׁכַב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 19 acl:relcl _ Gloss=[are].lying|Ref=GEN_28:13!16|MId=o010280130161|Strong=7901|Frame=A0:010280130151;|Type=participle_active 23-24 עָלֶ֔יהָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 עָלֶ֔י עַל ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=GEN_28:13!17|MId=o010280130171|Strong=5921 24 הָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 22 obl _ Gloss=it|Ref=GEN_28:13!17|MId=o010280130172|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 25-26 לְךָ֥ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 ל לְ ADP _ _ 26 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_28:13!18|MId=o010280130181|Strong=3807a 26 ְךָ֥ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 27 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=GEN_28:13!18|MId=o010280130182|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 27-28 אֶתְּנֶ֖נָּה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 אֶתְּנ נָתַן VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 10 parataxis _ Gloss=I|Ref=GEN_28:13!19|MId=o010280130191|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:010280130021;A1:010280130192;|Type=yiqtol 28 ֶ֖נָּה הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 27 obj _ Gloss=will.give.it|Ref=GEN_28:13!19|MId=o010280130192|Strong=5089a|Type=pronominal 29-32 וּלְזַרְעֶֽךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 29 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 31 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_28:13!20|MId=o010280130201|Strong=2050b 30 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 31 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_28:13!20|MId=o010280130202|Strong=3807a 31 זַרְע זֶרַע NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 26 conj _ Gloss=offspring|Ref=GEN_28:13!20|MId=o010280130203|Strong=2233 32 ֶֽךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 31 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=GEN_28:13!20|MId=o010280130204|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 33 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 32 punct _ Ref=GEN_28:13!20 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
