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 — sons, Joseph — and what happens in the verse to wagons, things, provision, Pharaoh, 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. וַיַּֽעֲשׂוּ־כֵן֙ בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל וַיִּתֵּ֨ן לָהֶ֥ם יוֹסֵ֛ף עֲגָל֖וֹת עַל־פִּ֣י פַרְעֹ֑ה וַיִּתֵּ֥ן לָהֶ֛ם צֵדָ֖ה לַדָּֽרֶךְ׃ [And the sons of Israel did so; and Joseph gave them wagons, according to the commandment of Pharaoh, and gave them provision for the way.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.1495/) ## 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:1379 # text = וַיַּֽעֲשׂוּ־כֵן֙ בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל וַיִּתֵּ֨ן לָהֶ֥ם יוֹסֵ֛ף עֲגָל֖וֹת עַל־פִּ֣י פַרְעֹ֑ה וַיִּתֵּ֥ן לָהֶ֛ם צֵדָ֖ה לַדָּֽרֶךְ׃ # verse = GEN.45.21 1-2 וַיַּֽעֲשׂוּ־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_45:21!1|MId=o010450210011|Strong=2050b 2 יַּֽעֲשׂוּ־ עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.did|Ref=GEN_45:21!1|MId=o010450210012|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:010450210031;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 כֵן֙ כֵּן ADV _ _ 2 advmod _ Gloss=thus|Ref=GEN_45:21!2|MId=o010450210021|Strong=3651 4 בְּנֵ֣י בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 nsubj _ Gloss=the.sons|Ref=GEN_45:21!3|MId=o010450210031|Strong=1121 5 יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 4 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Israel|Ref=GEN_45:21!4|MId=o010450210041|Strong=3478 6-7 וַיִּתֵּ֨ן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 7 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_45:21!5|MId=o010450210051|Strong=2050b 7 יִּתֵּ֨ן נָתַן VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.gave|Ref=GEN_45:21!5|MId=o010450210052|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:010450210071;A1:010450210081;|Type=wayyiqtol 8-9 לָהֶ֥ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 ל לְ ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_45:21!6|MId=o010450210061|Strong=3807a 9 ָהֶ֥ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 7 obl _ Gloss=them|Ref=GEN_45:21!6|MId=o010450210062|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 10 יוֹסֵ֛ף יוֹסֵף PROPN _ _ 7 nsubj _ Gloss=Joseph|Ref=GEN_45:21!7|MId=o010450210071|Strong=3130 11 עֲגָל֖וֹת עֲגָלָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 7 obj _ Gloss=carts|Ref=GEN_45:21!8|MId=o010450210081|Strong=5699 12 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=GEN_45:21!9|MId=o010450210091|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 13 פִּ֣י פֶּה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 7 obl _ Gloss=the.mouth|Ref=GEN_45:21!10|MId=o010450210101|Strong=6310 14 פַרְעֹ֑ה פַּרְעֹה PROPN _ _ 13 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Pharaoh|Ref=GEN_45:21!11|MId=o010450210111|Strong=6547 15-16 וַיִּתֵּ֥ן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_45:21!12|MId=o010450210121|Strong=2050b 16 יִּתֵּ֥ן נָתַן VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.gave|Ref=GEN_45:21!12|MId=o010450210122|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:010450210071;A1:010450210141;|Type=wayyiqtol 17-18 לָהֶ֛ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 ל לְ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_45:21!13|MId=o010450210131|Strong=3807a 18 ָהֶ֛ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 16 obl _ Gloss=them|Ref=GEN_45:21!13|MId=o010450210132|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 19 צֵדָ֖ה צֵידָה NOUN _ Number=Sing 16 obj _ Gloss=provision[s]|Ref=GEN_45:21!14|MId=o010450210141|Strong=6720 20-22 לַדָּֽרֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=GEN_45:21!15|MId=o010450210151|Strong=3807a 21 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 22 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=GEN_45:21!15|MId=o010450210151ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 22 דָּֽרֶךְ דֶּרֶךְ NOUN _ Number=Sing 16 obl _ Gloss=journey|Ref=GEN_45:21!15|MId=o010450210152|Strong=1870 23 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 22 punct _ Ref=GEN_45:21!15 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יַּֽעֲשׂוּ־ *they did* | wayyiqtol · qal | בְּנֵי *the sons* | | | | | יִּתֵּן *he gave* | wayyiqtol · qal | יוֹסֵף *Joseph* | עֲגָלוֹת *carts* | | | | יִּתֵּן *he gave* | wayyiqtol · qal | יוֹסֵף *Joseph* | צֵדָה *provision\[s\]* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
