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 — wickedness, wife, Joseph — and what happens in the verse to Joseph, 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. וַיְהִ֕י כְּדַבְּרָ֥הּ אֶל־יוֹסֵ֖ף י֣וֹם ׀ י֑וֹם וְלֹא־שָׁמַ֥ע אֵלֶ֛יהָ לִשְׁכַּ֥ב אֶצְלָ֖הּ לִהְי֥וֹת עִמָּֽהּ׃ [And it came to pass, as she spoke to Joseph day by day, that he hearkened not unto her, to lie by her, or to be with her.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.1260/) ## 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:1159 # text = וַיְהִ֕י כְּדַבְּרָ֥הּ אֶל־יוֹסֵ֖ף י֣וֹם ׀ י֑וֹם וְלֹא־שָׁמַ֥ע אֵלֶ֛יהָ לִשְׁכַּ֥ב אֶצְלָ֖הּ לִהְי֥וֹת עִמָּֽהּ׃ # verse = GEN.39.10 1-2 וַיְהִ֕י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_39:10!1|MId=o010390100011|Strong=2050b 2 יְהִ֕י הָיָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.was|Ref=GEN_39:10!1|MId=o010390100012|Strong=1961|Type=wayyiqtol 3-5 כְּדַבְּרָ֥הּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 כְּ כְּ ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=though|Ref=GEN_39:10!2|MId=o010390100021|Strong=3509a 4 דַבְּר דָבַר VERB _ HebBinyan=PIEL 2 advcl _ Gloss=spoke|Ref=GEN_39:10!2|MId=o010390100022|Strong=1696|Frame=A0:010390100023;|Type=infinitive_construct 5 ָ֥הּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 4 nsubj _ Gloss=she|Ref=GEN_39:10!2|MId=o010390100023|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 6 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_39:10!3|MId=o010390100031|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 7 יוֹסֵ֖ף יוֹסֵף PROPN _ _ 4 obl _ Gloss=Joseph|Ref=GEN_39:10!4|MId=o010390100041|Strong=3130 8 י֣וֹם יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 obl _ Gloss=day|Ref=GEN_39:10!5|MId=o010390100051|Strong=3117 9 ׀ ׀ PUNCT _ _ 8 punct _ Ref=GEN_39:10!5 10 י֑וֹם יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 conj _ Gloss=day|Ref=GEN_39:10!6|MId=o010390100061|Strong=3117 11-12 וְלֹא־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 13 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_39:10!7|MId=o010390100071|Strong=2050b 12 לֹא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 13 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=GEN_39:10!7|MId=o010390100072|Strong=3808|Type=negative 13 שָׁמַ֥ע שָׁמַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.listened|Ref=GEN_39:10!8|MId=o010390100081|Strong=8085|Frame=A0:010390100041;|Type=qatal 14-15 אֵלֶ֛יהָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 אֵלֶ֛י אֶל ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_39:10!9|MId=o010390100091|Strong=0413 15 הָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 13 obl _ Gloss=her|Ref=GEN_39:10!9|MId=o010390100092|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 16-17 לִשְׁכַּ֥ב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_39:10!10|MId=o010390100101|Strong=3807a 17 שְׁכַּ֥ב שָׁכַב VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 13 advcl _ Gloss=lie|Ref=GEN_39:10!10|MId=o010390100102|Strong=7901|Frame=A0:010390100041;|Type=infinitive_construct 18-19 אֶצְלָ֖הּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 אֶצְל אֵצֶל ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=beside|Ref=GEN_39:10!11|MId=o010390100111|Strong=0681 19 ָ֖הּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 17 obl _ Gloss=her|Ref=GEN_39:10!11|MId=o010390100112|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 20-21 לִהְי֥וֹת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_39:10!12|MId=o010390100121|Strong=3807a 21 הְי֥וֹת הָיָה AUX _ HebBinyan=QAL 23 cop _ Gloss=be|Ref=GEN_39:10!12|MId=o010390100122|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:010390100041;|Type=infinitive_construct 22-23 עִמָּֽהּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 עִמּ עִם ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=GEN_39:10!13|MId=o010390100131|Strong=5973 23 ָֽהּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 17 conj _ Gloss=her|Ref=GEN_39:10!13|MId=o010390100132|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 24 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 23 punct _ Ref=GEN_39:10!13 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: narrate - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | דַבְּר *spoke* | infinitive construct · piel | ָהּ *she* | | | | | **not** שָׁמַע *he listened* | qatal · qal | יוֹסֵף *Joseph* | | | | | שְׁכַּב *lie* | infinitive construct · qal | יוֹסֵף *Joseph* | | | | | הְיוֹת *be* | infinitive construct · qal | יוֹסֵף *Joseph* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
