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, Joseph — and what happens in the verse to all, hand, LORD, aught, bread, 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. וַיַּעֲזֹ֣ב כָּל־אֲשֶׁר־לוֹ֮ בְּיַד־יוֹסֵף֒ וְלֹא־יָדַ֤ע אִתּוֹ֙ מְא֔וּמָה כִּ֥י אִם־הַלֶּ֖חֶם אֲשֶׁר־ה֣וּא אוֹכֵ֑ל וַיְהִ֣י יוֹסֵ֔ף יְפֵה־תֹ֖אַר וִיפֵ֥ה מַרְאֶֽה׃ [And he left all that he had in Joseph's hand; and, having him, he knew not aught save the bread which he did eat.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.1254/) [And Joseph was of beautiful form, and fair to look upon.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.1255/) ## 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:1155 # text = וַיַּעֲזֹ֣ב כָּל־אֲשֶׁר־לוֹ֮ בְּיַד־יוֹסֵף֒ וְלֹא־יָדַ֤ע אִתּוֹ֙ מְא֔וּמָה כִּ֥י אִם־הַלֶּ֖חֶם אֲשֶׁר־ה֣וּא אוֹכֵ֑ל וַיְהִ֣י יוֹסֵ֔ף יְפֵה־תֹ֖אַר וִיפֵ֥ה מַרְאֶֽה׃ # verse = GEN.39.6 1-2 וַיַּעֲזֹ֣ב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_39:6!1|MId=o010390060011|Strong=2050b 2 יַּעֲזֹ֣ב עָזַב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.left|Ref=GEN_39:6!1|MId=o010390060012|Strong=5800|Frame=A0:010390050152;A1:010390060021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 כָּל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=all|Ref=GEN_39:6!2|MId=o010390060021|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 4 אֲשֶׁר־ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 6 mark _ Gloss=that|Ref=GEN_39:6!3|MId=o010390060031|Strong=0834|Type=relative|SpaceAfter=No 5-6 לוֹ֮ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 ל לְ ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=[belonged].to|Ref=GEN_39:6!4|MId=o010390060041|Strong=3807a 6 וֹ֮ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 3 acl:relcl _ Gloss=him|Ref=GEN_39:6!4|MId=o010390060042|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 7-8 בְּיַד־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=GEN_39:6!5|MId=o010390060051|Strong=0871a 8 יַד־ יָד NOUN _ Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=the.hand|Ref=GEN_39:6!5|MId=o010390060052|Strong=3027 9 יוֹסֵף֒ יוֹסֵף PROPN _ _ 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Joseph|Ref=GEN_39:6!6|MId=o010390060061|Strong=3130 10-11 וְלֹא־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 12 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_39:6!7|MId=o010390060071|Strong=2050b 11 לֹא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 12 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=GEN_39:6!7|MId=o010390060072|Strong=3808|Type=negative 12 יָדַ֤ע יָדַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.knew|Ref=GEN_39:6!8|MId=o010390060081|Strong=3045|Frame=A0:010390050152;A1:010390060101;|Type=qatal 13-14 אִתּוֹ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 אִתּ אֵת ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=GEN_39:6!9|MId=o010390060091|Strong=0854 14 וֹ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 12 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=GEN_39:6!9|MId=o010390060092|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 15 מְא֔וּמָה מְאוּמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 12 obj _ Gloss=anything|Ref=GEN_39:6!10|MId=o010390060101|Strong=3972 16 כִּ֥י כִּי SCONJ _ ExtPos=SCONJ 19 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=GEN_39:6!11|MId=o010390060111|Strong=3588 17 אִם־ אִם SCONJ _ _ 16 fixed _ Gloss=(if)|Ref=GEN_39:6!12|MId=o010390060121|Strong=0518|SpaceAfter=No 18-19 הַלֶּ֖חֶם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 19 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=GEN_39:6!13|MId=o010390060131|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 19 לֶּ֖חֶם לֶחֶם NOUN _ Number=Sing 12 parataxis _ Gloss=food|Ref=GEN_39:6!13|MId=o010390060132|Strong=3899 20 אֲשֶׁר־ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 22 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=GEN_39:6!14|MId=o010390060141|Strong=0834|Type=relative|SpaceAfter=No 21 ה֣וּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 22 nsubj _ Gloss=he|Ref=GEN_39:6!15|MId=o010390060151|Strong=1931|Type=personal 22 אוֹכֵ֑ל אָכַל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 19 acl:relcl _ Gloss=[was].eating|Ref=GEN_39:6!16|MId=o010390060161|Strong=0398|Frame=A0:010390060151;A1:010390060132;|Type=participle_active 23-24 וַיְהִ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 26 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_39:6!17|MId=o010390060171|Strong=2050b 24 יְהִ֣י הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 26 cop _ Gloss=he.was|Ref=GEN_39:6!17|MId=o010390060172|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:010390060181;|Type=wayyiqtol 25 יוֹסֵ֔ף יוֹסֵף PROPN _ _ 26 nsubj _ Gloss=Joseph|Ref=GEN_39:6!18|MId=o010390060181|Strong=3130 26 יְפֵה־ יָפֶה ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 conj _ Gloss=handsome|Ref=GEN_39:6!19|MId=o010390060191|Strong=3303|Type=adjective|SpaceAfter=No 27 תֹ֖אַר תֹּאַר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 26 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.form|Ref=GEN_39:6!20|MId=o010390060201|Strong=8389 28-29 וִיפֵ֥ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 28 וִ וְ CCONJ _ _ 29 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_39:6!21|MId=o010390060211|Strong=2050b 29 יפֵ֥ה יָפֶה ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 26 conj _ Gloss=handsome|Ref=GEN_39:6!21|MId=o010390060212|Strong=3303|Type=adjective 30 מַרְאֶֽה מַרְאֶה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 29 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.appearance|Ref=GEN_39:6!22|MId=o010390060221|Strong=4758|SpaceAfter=No 31 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 30 punct _ Ref=GEN_39:6!22 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יַּעֲזֹב *he left* | wayyiqtol · qal | | כָּל־ *all* | | | | **not** יָדַע *he knew* | qatal · qal | | מְאוּמָה *anything* | | | | אוֹכֵל *\[was\] eating* | participle active · qal | הוּא *he* | לֶּחֶם *food* | | | | יְהִי *he was* | wayyiqtol · qal | יוֹסֵף *Joseph* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
