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 — and what happens in the verse to you, me, 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. וְעַתָּ֗ה לֹֽא־אַתֶּ֞ם שְׁלַחְתֶּ֤ם אֹתִי֙ הֵ֔נָּה כִּ֖י הָאֱלֹהִ֑ים וַיְשִׂימֵ֨נִֽי לְאָ֜ב לְפַרְעֹ֗ה וּלְאָדוֹן֙ לְכָל־בֵּית֔וֹ וּמֹשֵׁ֖ל בְּכָל־אֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרָֽיִם׃ [So now it was not you that sent me hither, but God; and He hath made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and ruler over all the land of Egypt.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.1482/) ## 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:1366 # text = וְעַתָּ֗ה לֹֽא־אַתֶּ֞ם שְׁלַחְתֶּ֤ם אֹתִי֙ הֵ֔נָּה כִּ֖י הָאֱלֹהִ֑ים וַיְשִׂימֵ֨נִֽי לְאָ֜ב לְפַרְעֹ֗ה וּלְאָדוֹן֙ לְכָל־בֵּית֔וֹ וּמֹשֵׁ֖ל בְּכָל־אֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרָֽיִם׃ # verse = GEN.45.8 1-2 וְעַתָּ֗ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_45:8!1|MId=o010450080011|Strong=2050b 2 עַתָּ֗ה עַתָּה ADV _ _ 0 root _ Gloss=therefore|Ref=GEN_45:8!1|MId=o010450080012|Strong=6258 3 לֹֽא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 5 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=GEN_45:8!2|MId=o010450080021|Strong=3808|Type=negative|SpaceAfter=No 4 אַתֶּ֞ם אַתֶּם PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 5 nsubj _ Gloss=you|Ref=GEN_45:8!3|MId=o010450080031|Strong=0859a|Type=personal 5 שְׁלַחְתֶּ֤ם שָׁלַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 2 parataxis _ Gloss=you.sent|Ref=GEN_45:8!4|MId=o010450080041|Strong=7971|Frame=A0:010450080031;A1:010450080052;|Type=qatal 6-7 אֹתִי֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 אֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=|Ref=GEN_45:8!5|MId=o010450080051|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 7 ִי֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 5 obj _ Gloss=me|Ref=GEN_45:8!5|MId=o010450080052|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 8 הֵ֔נָּה הֵנָּה ADV _ _ 5 advmod _ Gloss=hither|Ref=GEN_45:8!6|MId=o010450080061|Strong=2008 9 כִּ֖י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 11 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=GEN_45:8!7|MId=o010450080071|Strong=3588 10-11 הָאֱלֹהִ֑ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 11 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=GEN_45:8!8|MId=o010450080081|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 11 אֱלֹהִ֑ים אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 5 parataxis _ Gloss=God|Ref=GEN_45:8!8|MId=o010450080082|Strong=0430 12-14 וַיְשִׂימֵ֨נִֽי _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 13 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_45:8!9|MId=o010450080091|Strong=2050b 13 יְשִׂימ שׂים VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he|Ref=GEN_45:8!9|MId=o010450080092|Strong=7760|Frame=A0:010450080082;A1:010450080093;|Type=wayyiqtol 14 ֵ֨נִֽי הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 13 obj _ Gloss=has.appointed.me|Ref=GEN_45:8!9|MId=o010450080093|Strong=5204a|Type=pronominal 15-16 לְאָ֜ב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_45:8!10|MId=o010450080101|Strong=3807a 16 אָ֜ב אָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 obl _ Gloss=a.father|Ref=GEN_45:8!10|MId=o010450080102|Strong=0001 17-18 לְפַרְעֹ֗ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=of|Ref=GEN_45:8!11|MId=o010450080111|Strong=3807a 18 פַרְעֹ֗ה פַּרְעֹה PROPN _ _ 16 nmod _ Gloss=Pharaoh|Ref=GEN_45:8!11|MId=o010450080112|Strong=6547 19-21 וּלְאָדוֹן֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 21 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_45:8!12|MId=o010450080121|Strong=2050b 20 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 21 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_45:8!12|MId=o010450080122|Strong=3807a 21 אָדוֹן֙ אָדוֹן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 conj _ Gloss=lord|Ref=GEN_45:8!12|MId=o010450080123|Strong=0113 22-23 לְכָל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=of|Ref=GEN_45:8!13|MId=o010450080131|Strong=3807a 23 כָל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 21 nmod _ Gloss=all|Ref=GEN_45:8!13|MId=o010450080132|Strong=3605 24-25 בֵּית֔וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 בֵּית בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 23 compound:smixut _ Gloss=household|Ref=GEN_45:8!14|MId=o010450080141|Strong=1004 25 ֔וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 24 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=GEN_45:8!14|MId=o010450080142|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 26-27 וּמֹשֵׁ֖ל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 27 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_45:8!15|MId=o010450080151|Strong=2050b 27 מֹשֵׁ֖ל מָשַׁל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 21 conj _ Gloss=ruler|Ref=GEN_45:8!15|MId=o010450080152|Strong=4910|Frame=A0:010450040021;|Type=participle_active 28-29 בְּכָל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 28 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 29 case _ Gloss=over|Ref=GEN_45:8!16|MId=o010450080161|Strong=0871a 29 כָל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 27 obl _ Gloss=all|Ref=GEN_45:8!16|MId=o010450080162|Strong=3605 30 אֶ֥רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 29 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.land|Ref=GEN_45:8!17|MId=o010450080171|Strong=0776 31 מִצְרָֽיִם מִצְרַיִם PROPN _ _ 30 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Egypt|Ref=GEN_45:8!18|MId=o010450080181|Strong=4714|SpaceAfter=No 32 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 31 punct _ Ref=GEN_45:8!18 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | **not** שְׁלַחְתֶּם *you sent* | qatal · qal | אַתֶּם *you* | ִי *me* | | | | יְשִׂימ *he* | wayyiqtol · qal | אֱלֹהִים *God* | ֵנִֽי *has appointed me* | | | | מֹשֵׁל *ruler* | participle active · qal | | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
