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 — Thou, husband, LORD, I — and what happens in the verse to husband, bread, you, 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. וְקִדַּשְׁתּ֔וֹ כִּֽי־אֶת־לֶ֥חֶם אֱלֹהֶ֖יךָ ה֣וּא מַקְרִ֑יב קָדֹשׁ֙ יִֽהְיֶה־לָּ֔ךְ כִּ֣י קָד֔וֹשׁ אֲנִ֥י יְהוָ֖ה מְקַדִּשְׁכֶֽם׃ [Thou shalt sanctify him therefore; for he offereth the bread of thy God; he shall be holy unto thee; for I the LORD, who sanctify you, am holy.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/LEV.614/) ## 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:607 # text = וְקִדַּשְׁתּ֔וֹ כִּֽי־אֶת־לֶ֥חֶם אֱלֹהֶ֖יךָ ה֣וּא מַקְרִ֑יב קָדֹשׁ֙ יִֽהְיֶה־לָּ֔ךְ כִּ֣י קָד֔וֹשׁ אֲנִ֥י יְהוָ֖ה מְקַדִּשְׁכֶֽם׃ # verse = LEV.21.8 1-3 וְקִדַּשְׁתּ֔וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_21:8!1|MId=o030210080011|Strong=2050b 2 קִדַּשְׁתּ קָדַשׁ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=you|Ref=LEV_21:8!1|MId=o030210080012|Strong=6942|Frame=A0:030200020122;A1:030210080013;|Type=weqatal 3 ֔וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 2 obj _ Gloss=will.set.him.apart.as.holy|Ref=LEV_21:8!1|MId=o030210080013|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 4 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 10 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=LEV_21:8!2|MId=o030210080021|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 5 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=LEV_21:8!3|MId=o030210080031|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 6 לֶ֥חֶם לֶחֶם NOUN _ Number=Sing 10 obj _ Gloss=the.food|Ref=LEV_21:8!4|MId=o030210080041|Strong=3899 7-8 אֱלֹהֶ֖יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 אֱלֹהֶ֖י אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 6 compound:smixut _ Gloss=your.God|Ref=LEV_21:8!5|MId=o030210080051|Strong=0430 8 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 7 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=LEV_21:8!5|MId=o030210080052|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 9 ה֣וּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 10 nsubj _ Gloss=he|Ref=LEV_21:8!6|MId=o030210080061|Strong=1931|Type=personal 10 מַקְרִ֑יב קָרַב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing 2 advcl _ Gloss=[is].presenting|Ref=LEV_21:8!7|MId=o030210080071|Strong=7126|Frame=A0:030210080041;AA:030210080061;|Type=participle_active 11 קָדֹשׁ֙ קָדוֹשׁ ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 parataxis _ Gloss=holy|Ref=LEV_21:8!8|MId=o030210080081|Strong=6918|Type=adjective 12 יִֽהְיֶה־ הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 11 cop _ Gloss=he.will.be|Ref=LEV_21:8!9|MId=o030210080091|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:030210010072;|Type=yiqtol|SpaceAfter=No 13-14 לָּ֔ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 לּ לְ ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=LEV_21:8!10|MId=o030210080101|Strong=3807a 14 ָ֔ךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 11 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=LEV_21:8!10|MId=o030210080102|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 15 כִּ֣י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 16 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=LEV_21:8!11|MId=o030210080111|Strong=3588 16 קָד֔וֹשׁ קָדוֹשׁ ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 parataxis _ Gloss=[am].holy|Ref=LEV_21:8!12|MId=o030210080121|Strong=6918|Type=adjective 17 אֲנִ֥י אֲנִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 16 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=LEV_21:8!13|MId=o030210080131|Strong=0589|Type=personal 18 יְהוָ֖ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 17 appos _ Gloss=[am].Yahweh|Ref=LEV_21:8!14|MId=o030210080141|Strong=3068 19-20 מְקַדִּשְׁכֶֽם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 מְקַדִּשׁ קָדַשׁ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing 18 appos _ Gloss=[who].sets|Ref=LEV_21:8!15|MId=o030210080151|Strong=6942|Frame=A0:030210080141;A1:030210080152;|Type=participle_active 20 ְכֶֽם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 19 nmod:poss _ Gloss=you.apart.as.holy|Ref=LEV_21:8!15|MId=o030210080152|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 21 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 20 punct _ Ref=LEV_21:8!15 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: request - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: no - indirect: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | קִדַּשְׁתּ *you* | weqatal · piel | | וֹ *will set him apart as holy* | | | | מַקְרִיב *\[is\] presenting* | participle active · hiphil | לֶחֶם *the food* | | | הוּא *he* | | יִֽהְיֶה־ *he will be* | yiqtol · qal | | | | | | מְקַדִּשׁ *\[who\] sets* | participle active · piel | יְהוָה *\[am\] Yahweh* | ְכֶֽם *you apart as holy* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
