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 — God, that, you — and what happens in the verse to riches, ours, whatsoever, 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. כִּ֣י כָל־הָעֹ֗שֶׁר אֲשֶׁ֨ר הִצִּ֤יל אֱלֹהִים֙ מֵֽאָבִ֔ינוּ לָ֥נוּ ה֖וּא וּלְבָנֵ֑ינוּ וְעַתָּ֗ה כֹּל֩ אֲשֶׁ֨ר אָמַ֧ר אֱלֹהִ֛ים אֵלֶ֖יךָ עֲשֵֽׂה׃ [For all the riches which God hath taken away from our father, that is ours and our children's.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.950/) [Now then, whatsoever God hath said unto thee, do.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.951/) ## 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:889 # text = כִּ֣י כָל־הָעֹ֗שֶׁר אֲשֶׁ֨ר הִצִּ֤יל אֱלֹהִים֙ מֵֽאָבִ֔ינוּ לָ֥נוּ ה֖וּא וּלְבָנֵ֑ינוּ וְעַתָּ֗ה כֹּל֩ אֲשֶׁ֨ר אָמַ֧ר אֱלֹהִ֛ים אֵלֶ֖יךָ עֲשֵֽׂה׃ # verse = GEN.31.16 1 כִּ֣י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 12 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=GEN_31:16!1|MId=o010310160011|Strong=3588 2 כָל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 dislocated _ Gloss=all|Ref=GEN_31:16!2|MId=o010310160021|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 3-4 הָעֹ֗שֶׁר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 4 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=GEN_31:16!3|MId=o010310160031|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 4 עֹ֗שֶׁר עֹשֶׁר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 compound:smixut _ Gloss=wealth|Ref=GEN_31:16!3|MId=o010310160032|Strong=6239 5 אֲשֶׁ֨ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 6 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=GEN_31:16!4|MId=o010310160041|Strong=0834|Type=relative 6 הִצִּ֤יל נָצַל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 acl:relcl _ Gloss=he.has.taken.away|Ref=GEN_31:16!5|MId=o010310160051|Strong=5337|Frame=AA:010310160061;A0:010310160032;|Type=qatal 7 אֱלֹהִים֙ אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 6 nsubj _ Gloss=God|Ref=GEN_31:16!6|MId=o010310160061|Strong=0430 8-10 מֵֽאָבִ֔ינוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 מֵֽ מִן ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=GEN_31:16!7|MId=o010310160071|Strong=4480 9 אָבִ֔י אָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 obl _ Gloss=father|Ref=GEN_31:16!7|MId=o010310160072|Strong=0001 10 נוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 9 nmod:poss _ Gloss=our|Ref=GEN_31:16!7|MId=o010310160073|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 11-12 לָ֥נוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 ל לְ ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=[belongs].to|Ref=GEN_31:16!8|MId=o010310160081|Strong=3807a 12 ָ֥נוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 0 root _ Gloss=us|Ref=GEN_31:16!8|MId=o010310160082|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 13 ה֖וּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 12 nsubj _ Gloss=it|Ref=GEN_31:16!9|MId=o010310160091|Strong=1931|Type=personal 14-17 וּלְבָנֵ֑ינוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_31:16!10|MId=o010310160101|Strong=2050b 15 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_31:16!10|MId=o010310160102|Strong=3807a 16 בָנֵ֑י בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 12 conj _ Gloss=children|Ref=GEN_31:16!10|MId=o010310160103|Strong=1121 17 נוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 16 nmod:poss _ Gloss=our|Ref=GEN_31:16!10|MId=o010310160104|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 18-19 וְעַתָּ֗ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 19 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_31:16!11|MId=o010310160111|Strong=2050b 19 עַתָּ֗ה עַתָּה ADV _ _ 12 advmod _ Gloss=therefore|Ref=GEN_31:16!11|MId=o010310160112|Strong=6258 20 כֹּל֩ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 26 obj _ Gloss=all|Ref=GEN_31:16!12|MId=o010310160121|Strong=3605 21 אֲשֶׁ֨ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 22 mark _ Gloss=that|Ref=GEN_31:16!13|MId=o010310160131|Strong=0834|Type=relative 22 אָמַ֧ר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 20 acl:relcl _ Gloss=he.has.said|Ref=GEN_31:16!14|MId=o010310160141|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:010310160151;A1:010310160121;|Type=qatal 23 אֱלֹהִ֛ים אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 22 nsubj _ Gloss=God|Ref=GEN_31:16!15|MId=o010310160151|Strong=0430 24-25 אֵלֶ֖יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 אֵלֶ֖י אֶל ADP _ _ 25 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_31:16!16|MId=o010310160161|Strong=0413 25 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 22 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=GEN_31:16!16|MId=o010310160162|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 26 עֲשֵֽׂה עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 12 parataxis _ Gloss=do|Ref=GEN_31:16!17|MId=o010310160171|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:010310040021;A1:010310160121;|Type=imperative|SpaceAfter=No 27 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=GEN_31:16!17 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | הִצִּיל *he has taken away* | qatal · hiphil | עֹשֶׁר *wealth* | | | אֱלֹהִים *God* | | אָמַר *he has said* | qatal · qal | אֱלֹהִים *God* | כֹּל *all* | | | | עֲשֵֽׂה *do* | imperative · qal | | כֹּל *all* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
