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 — man, whoso, one, flow, seed — and what happens in the verse to leper, issue, one, whomsoever, 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. אִ֣ישׁ אִ֞ישׁ מִזֶּ֣רַע אַהֲרֹ֗ן וְה֤וּא צָר֙וּעַ֙ א֣וֹ זָ֔ב בַּקֳּדָשִׁים֙ לֹ֣א יֹאכַ֔ל עַ֖ד אֲשֶׁ֣ר יִטְהָ֑ר וְהַנֹּגֵ֙עַ֙ בְּכָל־טְמֵא־נֶ֔פֶשׁ א֣וֹ אִ֔ישׁ אֲשֶׁר־תֵּצֵ֥א מִמֶּ֖נּוּ שִׁכְבַת־זָֽרַע׃ [What man soever of the seed of Aaron is a leper, or hath an issue, he shall not eat of the holy things, until he be clean.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/LEV.634/) [And whoso toucheth any one that is unclean by the dead; or from whomsoever the flow of seed goeth out;](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/LEV.635/) ## 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:627 # text = אִ֣ישׁ אִ֞ישׁ מִזֶּ֣רַע אַהֲרֹ֗ן וְה֤וּא צָר֙וּעַ֙ א֣וֹ זָ֔ב בַּקֳּדָשִׁים֙ לֹ֣א יֹאכַ֔ל עַ֖ד אֲשֶׁ֣ר יִטְהָ֑ר וְהַנֹּגֵ֙עַ֙ בְּכָל־טְמֵא־נֶ֔פֶשׁ א֣וֹ אִ֔ישׁ אֲשֶׁר־תֵּצֵ֥א מִמֶּ֖נּוּ שִׁכְבַת־זָֽרַע׃ # verse = LEV.22.4 1 אִ֣ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 parataxis _ Gloss=a.man|Ref=LEV_22:4!1|MId=o030220040011|Strong=0376 2 אִ֞ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 1 appos _ Gloss=a.man|Ref=LEV_22:4!2|MId=o030220040021|Strong=0376 3-4 מִזֶּ֣רַע _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=of|Ref=LEV_22:4!3|MId=o030220040031|Strong=4480 4 זֶּ֣רַע זֶרַע NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 nmod _ Gloss=the.offspring|Ref=LEV_22:4!3|MId=o030220040032|Strong=2233 5 אַהֲרֹ֗ן אַהֲרֹן PROPN _ _ 4 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Aaron|Ref=LEV_22:4!4|MId=o030220040041|Strong=0175 6-7 וְה֤וּא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_22:4!5|MId=o030220040051|Strong=2050b 7 ה֤וּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 8 nsubj _ Gloss=he|Ref=LEV_22:4!5|MId=o030220040052|Strong=1931|Type=personal 8 צָר֙וּעַ֙ צָרַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 1 conj _ Gloss=[is].having.a.serious.skin.disease|Ref=LEV_22:4!6|MId=o030220040061|Strong=6879|Frame=A1:030220040052;|Type=participle_passive 9 א֣וֹ אוֹ CCONJ _ _ 10 cc _ Gloss=or|Ref=LEV_22:4!7|MId=o030220040071|Strong=0176 10 זָ֔ב זוּב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 8 conj _ Gloss=[is].discharging|Ref=LEV_22:4!8|MId=o030220040081|Strong=2100|Frame=A0:030220040052;|Type=participle_active 11-13 בַּקֳּדָשִׁים֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=LEV_22:4!9|MId=o030220040091|Strong=0871a 12 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 13 det _ Gloss=the.holy|Ref=LEV_22:4!9|MId=o030220040091ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 13 קֳּדָשִׁים֙ קֹדֶשׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 15 obl _ Gloss=things|Ref=LEV_22:4!9|MId=o030220040092|Strong=6944 14 לֹ֣א לֹא ADV _ _ 15 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=LEV_22:4!10|MId=o030220040101|Strong=3808|Type=negative 15 יֹאכַ֔ל אָכַל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 16 parataxis _ Gloss=he.will.eat|Ref=LEV_22:4!11|MId=o030220040111|Strong=0398|Frame=A0:030220040011;|Type=yiqtol 16 עַ֖ד עַד ADP _ _ 0 root _ Gloss=until|Ref=LEV_22:4!12|MId=o030220040121|Strong=5704 17 אֲשֶׁ֣ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 18 mark _ Gloss=that|Ref=LEV_22:4!13|MId=o030220040131|Strong=0834|Type=relative 18 יִטְהָ֑ר טָהֵר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 16 parataxis _ Gloss=he.will.be.pure|Ref=LEV_22:4!14|MId=o030220040141|Strong=2891|Frame=A0:030220040011;|Type=yiqtol 19-21 וְהַנֹּגֵ֙עַ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 21 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_22:4!15|MId=o030220040151|Strong=2050b 20 הַ הַ SCONJ _ _ 21 mark _ Gloss=the.[one|Ref=LEV_22:4!15|MId=o030220040152|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 21 נֹּגֵ֙עַ֙ נָגַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 16 conj _ Gloss=who].touches|Ref=LEV_22:4!15|MId=o030220040153|Strong=5060|Type=participle_active 22-23 בְּכָל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=(in)|Ref=LEV_22:4!16|MId=o030220040161|Strong=0871a 23 כָל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 21 obl _ Gloss=any|Ref=LEV_22:4!16|MId=o030220040162|Strong=3605 24 טְמֵא־ טָמֵא ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 23 compound:smixut _ Gloss=[thing].unclean|Ref=LEV_22:4!17|MId=o030220040171|Strong=2931|Type=adjective|SpaceAfter=No 25 נֶ֔פֶשׁ נֶפֶשׁ NOUN _ Number=Sing 24 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.a.corpse|Ref=LEV_22:4!18|MId=o030220040181|Strong=5315 26 א֣וֹ אוֹ CCONJ _ _ 27 cc _ Gloss=or|Ref=LEV_22:4!19|MId=o030220040191|Strong=0176 27 אִ֔ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 21 conj _ Gloss=anyone|Ref=LEV_22:4!20|MId=o030220040201|Strong=0376 28 אֲשֶׁר־ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 29 mark _ Gloss=whom|Ref=LEV_22:4!21|MId=o030220040211|Strong=0834|Type=relative|SpaceAfter=No 29 תֵּצֵ֥א יָצָא VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 27 acl:relcl _ Gloss=it.will.go.out|Ref=LEV_22:4!22|MId=o030220040221|Strong=3318|Frame=A0:030220040241;|Type=yiqtol 30-31 מִמֶּ֖נּוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 30 מִמּ מִן ADP _ _ 31 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=LEV_22:4!23|MId=o030220040231|Strong=4480 31 ֶ֖נּוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 29 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=LEV_22:4!23|MId=o030220040232|Strong=5105b|Type=pronominal 32 שִׁכְבַת־ שְׁכָבָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 29 nsubj _ Gloss=a.laying|Ref=LEV_22:4!24|MId=o030220040241|Strong=7902|SpaceAfter=No 33 זָֽרַע זֶרַע NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 32 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.seed|Ref=LEV_22:4!25|MId=o030220040251|Strong=2233|SpaceAfter=No 34 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 33 punct _ Ref=LEV_22:4!25 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
