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, God — and what happens in the verse to name, 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. וַיִּקְרָ֨א יַעֲקֹ֜ב אֶת־שֵׁ֣ם הַמָּק֗וֹם אֲשֶׁר֩ דִּבֶּ֨ר אִתּ֥וֹ שָׁ֛ם אֱלֹהִ֖ים בֵּֽית־אֵֽלבֵּֽית־אֵֽל׃ [And Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him, Beth-el.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.1103/) ## 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:1026 # text = וַיִּקְרָ֨א יַעֲקֹ֜ב אֶת־שֵׁ֣ם הַמָּק֗וֹם אֲשֶׁר֩ דִּבֶּ֨ר אִתּ֥וֹ שָׁ֛ם אֱלֹהִ֖ים בֵּֽית־אֵֽלבֵּֽית־אֵֽל׃ # verse = GEN.35.15 1-2 וַיִּקְרָ֨א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_35:15!1|MId=o010350150011|Strong=2050b 2 יִּקְרָ֨א קָרָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.called|Ref=GEN_35:15!1|MId=o010350150012|Strong=7121|Frame=A0:010350150021;A1:010350150041;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 יַעֲקֹ֜ב יַעֲקֹב PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Jacob|Ref=GEN_35:15!2|MId=o010350150021|Strong=3290 4 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=GEN_35:15!3|MId=o010350150031|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 5 שֵׁ֣ם שֵׁם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=the.name|Ref=GEN_35:15!4|MId=o010350150041|Strong=8034 6-7 הַמָּק֗וֹם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 7 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=GEN_35:15!5|MId=o010350150051|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 7 מָּק֗וֹם מָקוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 5 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.place|Ref=GEN_35:15!5|MId=o010350150052|Strong=4725 8 אֲשֶׁר֩ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 9 mark _ Gloss=where|Ref=GEN_35:15!6|MId=o010350150061|Strong=0834|Type=relative 9 דִּבֶּ֨ר דָבַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=3 7 acl:relcl _ Gloss=he.had.spoken|Ref=GEN_35:15!7|MId=o010350150071|Strong=1696|Frame=A0:010350150101;|Type=qatal 10-11 אִתּ֥וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 אִתּ אֵת ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=GEN_35:15!8|MId=o010350150081|Strong=0854 11 ֥וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 9 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=GEN_35:15!8|MId=o010350150082|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 12 שָׁ֛ם שָׁם ADV _ _ 9 advmod _ Gloss=there|Ref=GEN_35:15!9|MId=o010350150091|Strong=8033 13 אֱלֹהִ֖ים אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 9 nsubj _ Gloss=God|Ref=GEN_35:15!10|MId=o010350150101|Strong=0430 14-15 בֵּֽית־אֵֽלבֵּֽית־אֵֽל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 בֵּֽית־אֵֽל בֵּית־אֵל PROPN _ _ 2 dep _ Gloss=Bethel|Ref=GEN_35:15!11|MId=o010350150111 15 בֵּֽית־אֵֽל בֵּיתְאֵל PROPN _ _ 2 dep _ Gloss=Bethel|Ref=GEN_35:15!12|MId=o010350150121 16 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 15 punct _ Ref=GEN_35:15!12 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: narrate - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יִּקְרָא *he called* | wayyiqtol · qal | יַעֲקֹב *Jacob* | שֵׁם *the name* | | | | דִּבֶּר *he had spoken* | qatal · piel | אֱלֹהִים *God* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
