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 — priest, bright spots, spot — and what happens in the verse to tetter, skin, 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 27 chapters of Leviticus on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וְרָאָ֣ה הַכֹּהֵ֗ן וְהִנֵּ֧ה בְעוֹר־בְּשָׂרָ֛ם בֶּהָרֹ֖ת כֵּה֣וֹת לְבָנֹ֑ת בֹּ֥הַק ה֛וּא פָּרַ֥ח בָּע֖וֹר טָה֥וֹר הֽוּא׃ס [then the priest shall look; and, behold, if the bright spots in the skin of their flesh be of a dull white, it is a tetter, it hath broken out in the skin: he is clean.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/LEV.349/) ## 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:LEV:345 # text = וְרָאָ֣ה הַכֹּהֵ֗ן וְהִנֵּ֧ה בְעוֹר־בְּשָׂרָ֛ם בֶּהָרֹ֖ת כֵּה֣וֹת לְבָנֹ֑ת בֹּ֥הַק ה֛וּא פָּרַ֥ח בָּע֖וֹר טָה֥וֹר הֽוּא׃ס # verse = LEV.13.39 1-2 וְרָאָ֣ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_13:39!1|MId=o030130390011|Strong=2050b 2 רָאָ֣ה רָאָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.will.see|Ref=LEV_13:39!1|MId=o030130390012|Strong=7200|Frame=A0:030130390022;|Type=weqatal 3-4 הַכֹּהֵ֗ן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 4 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=LEV_13:39!2|MId=o030130390021|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 4 כֹּהֵ֗ן כֹּהֵן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=priest|Ref=LEV_13:39!2|MId=o030130390022|Strong=3548 5-6 וְהִנֵּ֧ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 12 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_13:39!3|MId=o030130390031|Strong=2050b 6 הִנֵּ֧ה הִנֵּה INTJ _ _ 12 discourse _ Gloss=there!|Ref=LEV_13:39!3|MId=o030130390032|Strong=2009|Type=demonstrative 7-8 בְעוֹר־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 בְ בְּ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=[are].on|Ref=LEV_13:39!4|MId=o030130390041|Strong=0871a 8 עוֹר־ עוֹר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 nsubj _ Gloss=the.skin|Ref=LEV_13:39!4|MId=o030130390042|Strong=5785 9-10 בְּשָׂרָ֛ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 בְּשָׂר בָּשָׂר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=their.flesh|Ref=LEV_13:39!5|MId=o030130390051|Strong=1320 10 ָ֛ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 9 nmod:poss _ Gloss=their|Ref=LEV_13:39!5|MId=o030130390052|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 11 בֶּהָרֹ֖ת בַּהֶרֶת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 8 nmod _ Gloss=bright.spots|Ref=LEV_13:39!6|MId=o030130390061|Strong=0934 12 כֵּה֣וֹת כֵּהֶה ADJ _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 2 conj _ Gloss=dull|Ref=LEV_13:39!7|MId=o030130390071|Strong=3544|Type=adjective 13 לְבָנֹ֑ת לָבָן ADJ _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 12 amod _ Gloss=white|Ref=LEV_13:39!8|MId=o030130390081|Strong=3836|Type=adjective 14 בֹּ֥הַק בֹּהַק NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 parataxis _ Gloss=[is].a.skin.rash|Ref=LEV_13:39!9|MId=o030130390091|Strong=0933 15 ה֛וּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 14 nsubj _ Gloss=it|Ref=LEV_13:39!10|MId=o030130390101|Strong=1931|Type=personal 16 פָּרַ֥ח פָּרַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 parataxis _ Gloss=it.has.broken.out|Ref=LEV_13:39!11|MId=o030130390111|Strong=6524|Frame=A0:030130390061;|Type=qatal 17-19 בָּע֖וֹר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 בָּ בְּ ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=LEV_13:39!12|MId=o030130390121|Strong=0871a 18 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 19 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=LEV_13:39!12|MId=o030130390121ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 19 ע֖וֹר עוֹר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 obl _ Gloss=skin|Ref=LEV_13:39!12|MId=o030130390122|Strong=5785 20 טָה֥וֹר טָהֹר ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 parataxis _ Gloss=[is].pure|Ref=LEV_13:39!13|MId=o030130390131|Strong=2889|Type=adjective 21 הֽוּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 20 nsubj _ Gloss=he|Ref=LEV_13:39!14|MId=o030130390141|Strong=1931|Type=personal|SpaceAfter=No 22 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 21 punct _ Ref=LEV_13:39!14|SpaceAfter=No 23 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 21 punct _ Ref=LEV_13:39!14 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | רָאָה *he will see* | weqatal · qal | כֹּהֵן *priest* | | | | | פָּרַח *it has broken out* | qatal · qal | בֶּהָרֹת *bright spots* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
