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, goat — and what happens in the verse to goat, 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. וְהֵנִ֣יף הַכֹּהֵ֣ן ׀ אֹתָ֡ם עַל֩ לֶ֨חֶם הַבִּכּוּרִ֤ים תְּנוּפָה֙ לִפְנֵ֣י יְהוָ֔ה עַל־שְׁנֵ֖י כְּבָשִׂ֑ים קֹ֛דֶשׁ יִהְי֥וּ לַיהוָ֖ה לַכֹּהֵֽן׃ [And the priest shall wave them with the bread of the first-fruits for a wave-offering before the LORD, with the two lambs; they shall be holy to the LORD for the priest.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/LEV.684/) ## 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:676 # text = וְהֵנִ֣יף הַכֹּהֵ֣ן ׀ אֹתָ֡ם עַל֩ לֶ֨חֶם הַבִּכּוּרִ֤ים תְּנוּפָה֙ לִפְנֵ֣י יְהוָ֔ה עַל־שְׁנֵ֖י כְּבָשִׂ֑ים קֹ֛דֶשׁ יִהְי֥וּ לַיהוָ֖ה לַכֹּהֵֽן׃ # verse = LEV.23.20 1-2 וְהֵנִ֣יף _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_23:20!1|MId=o030230200011|Strong=2050b 2 הֵנִ֣יף נוּף VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.will.wave|Ref=LEV_23:20!1|MId=o030230200012|Strong=5130|Frame=AA:030230200022;A0:030230200032;|Type=weqatal 3-4 הַכֹּהֵ֣ן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 4 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=LEV_23:20!2|MId=o030230200021|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 4 כֹּהֵ֣ן כֹּהֵן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=priest|Ref=LEV_23:20!2|MId=o030230200022|Strong=3548 5 ׀ ׀ PUNCT _ _ 4 punct _ Ref=LEV_23:20!2 6-7 אֹתָ֡ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 אֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=|Ref=LEV_23:20!3|MId=o030230200031|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 7 ָ֡ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 2 obj _ Gloss=them|Ref=LEV_23:20!3|MId=o030230200032|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 8 עַל֩ עַל ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=LEV_23:20!4|MId=o030230200041|Strong=5921 9 לֶ֨חֶם לֶחֶם NOUN _ Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=the.bread|Ref=LEV_23:20!5|MId=o030230200051|Strong=3899 10-11 הַבִּכּוּרִ֤ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 11 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=LEV_23:20!6|MId=o030230200061|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 11 בִּכּוּרִ֤ים בִּכּוּרִים NOUN _ Number=Plur 9 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.first-fruits|Ref=LEV_23:20!6|MId=o030230200062|Strong=1061 12 תְּנוּפָה֙ תְּנוּפָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 2 xcomp _ Gloss=a.wave-offering|Ref=LEV_23:20!7|MId=o030230200071|Strong=8573 13-14 לִפְנֵ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=before|Ref=LEV_23:20!8|MId=o030230200081|Strong=3807a 14 פְנֵ֣י פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 2 obl _ Gloss=|Ref=LEV_23:20!8|MId=o030230200082|Strong=6440 15 יְהוָ֔ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 14 compound:smixut _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=LEV_23:20!9|MId=o030230200091|Strong=3068 16 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=LEV_23:20!10|MId=o030230200101|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 17 שְׁנֵ֖י שְׁנַיִם NUM _ Gender=Masc|Number=Dual 18 nummod _ Gloss=two|Ref=LEV_23:20!11|MId=o030230200111|Strong=8147|Type=cardinal_number 18 כְּבָשִׂ֑ים כֶּבֶשׂ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 obl _ Gloss=male.lambs|Ref=LEV_23:20!12|MId=o030230200121|Strong=3532 19 קֹ֛דֶשׁ קֹדֶשׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 parataxis _ Gloss=a.holy.thing|Ref=LEV_23:20!13|MId=o030230200131|Strong=6944 20 יִהְי֥וּ הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 19 cop _ Gloss=they.will.be|Ref=LEV_23:20!14|MId=o030230200141|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:030230190021;030230200051;030230200121;|Type=yiqtol 21-22 לַיהוָ֖ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=LEV_23:20!15|MId=o030230200151|Strong=3807a 22 יהוָ֖ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 19 obl _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=LEV_23:20!15|MId=o030230200152|Strong=3068 23-25 לַכֹּהֵֽן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 25 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=LEV_23:20!16|MId=o030230200161|Strong=3807a 24 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 25 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=LEV_23:20!16|MId=o030230200161ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 25 כֹּהֵֽן כֹּהֵן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 19 obl _ Gloss=priest|Ref=LEV_23:20!16|MId=o030230200162|Strong=3548 26 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 25 punct _ Ref=LEV_23:20!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | הֵנִיף *he will wave* | weqatal · hiphil | ָם *them* | | | כֹּהֵן *priest* | | יִהְיוּ *they will be* | yiqtol · qal | לֶחֶם *the bread* + כְּבָשִׂים *male lambs* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
