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 — ye — and what happens in the verse to inheritance, strangers, bondmen, children, brethren, 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. וְהִתְנַחֲלְתֶּ֨םאֹתָ֜ם לִבְנֵיכֶ֤ם אַחֲרֵיכֶם֙ לָרֶ֣שֶׁת אֲחֻזָּ֔ה לְעֹלָ֖ם בָּהֶ֣ם תַּעֲבֹ֑דוּ וּבְאַ֨חֵיכֶ֤ם בְּנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ אִ֣ישׁ בְּאָחִ֔יו לֹא־תִרְדֶּ֥ה ב֖וֹ בְּפָֽרֶךְ׃ס [And ye may make them an inheritance for your children after you, to hold for a possession: of them may ye take your bondmen for ever; but over your brethren the children of Israel ye shall not rule, one over another, with rigour.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/LEV.779/) ## 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:769 # text = וְהִתְנַחֲלְתֶּ֨םאֹתָ֜ם לִבְנֵיכֶ֤ם אַחֲרֵיכֶם֙ לָרֶ֣שֶׁת אֲחֻזָּ֔ה לְעֹלָ֖ם בָּהֶ֣ם תַּעֲבֹ֑דוּ וּבְאַ֨חֵיכֶ֤ם בְּנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ אִ֣ישׁ בְּאָחִ֔יו לֹא־תִרְדֶּ֥ה ב֖וֹ בְּפָֽרֶךְ׃ס # verse = LEV.25.46 1-4 וְהִתְנַחֲלְתֶּ֨םאֹתָ֜ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_25:46!1|MId=o030250460011|Strong=2050b 2 הִתְנַחֲלְתֶּ֨ם נָחַל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HITHPAEL|Number=Plur|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=you.will.give.as.an.inheritance|Ref=LEV_25:46!1|MId=o030250460012|Strong=5157|Frame=A0:030250330181;A1:030250460022;|Type=weqatal 3 אֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=|Ref=LEV_25:46!2|MId=o030250460021|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 4 ָ֜ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 2 obj _ Gloss=them|Ref=LEV_25:46!2|MId=o030250460022|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 5-7 לִבְנֵיכֶ֤ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=LEV_25:46!3|MId=o030250460031|Strong=3807a 6 בְנֵי בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 obl _ Gloss=sons|Ref=LEV_25:46!3|MId=o030250460032|Strong=1121 7 כֶ֤ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 6 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=LEV_25:46!3|MId=o030250460033|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 8-9 אַחֲרֵיכֶם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 אַחֲרֵי אַחַר ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=after|Ref=LEV_25:46!4|MId=o030250460041|Strong=0310 9 כֶם֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 6 nmod _ Gloss=you|Ref=LEV_25:46!4|MId=o030250460042|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 10-11 לָרֶ֣שֶׁת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 לָ לְ ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=LEV_25:46!5|MId=o030250460051|Strong=3807a 11 רֶ֣שֶׁת יָרַשׁ VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 2 advcl _ Gloss=inherit|Ref=LEV_25:46!5|MId=o030250460052|Strong=3423|Frame=A0:030250460032;A1:030250460061;|Type=infinitive_construct 12 אֲחֻזָּ֔ה אֲחֻזָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 11 obj _ Gloss=a.possession|Ref=LEV_25:46!6|MId=o030250460061|Strong=0272 13-14 לְעֹלָ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=forever|Ref=LEV_25:46!7|MId=o030250460071|Strong=3807a 14 עֹלָ֖ם עוֹלָם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 obl _ Gloss=of.perpetuity|Ref=LEV_25:46!7|MId=o030250460072|Strong=5769 15-16 בָּהֶ֣ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 בּ בְּ ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=by|Ref=LEV_25:46!8|MId=o030250460081|Strong=0871a 16 ָהֶ֣ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 17 obl _ Gloss=them|Ref=LEV_25:46!8|MId=o030250460082|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 17 תַּעֲבֹ֑דוּ עָבַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 2 parataxis _ Gloss=you.will.labor|Ref=LEV_25:46!9|MId=o030250460091|Strong=5647|Frame=A0:030250330181;|Type=yiqtol 18-21 וּבְאַ֨חֵיכֶ֤ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 29 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_25:46!10|MId=o030250460101|Strong=2050b 19 בְ בְּ ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=over|Ref=LEV_25:46!10|MId=o030250460102|Strong=0871a 20 אַ֨חֵי אָח NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 29 dislocated _ Gloss=brothers|Ref=LEV_25:46!10|MId=o030250460103|Strong=0251 21 כֶ֤ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 20 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=LEV_25:46!10|MId=o030250460104|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 22 בְּנֵֽי־ בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 20 appos _ Gloss=the.people|Ref=LEV_25:46!11|MId=o030250460111|Strong=1121|SpaceAfter=No 23 יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 22 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Israel|Ref=LEV_25:46!12|MId=o030250460121|Strong=3478 24 אִ֣ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 29 obl _ Gloss=each|Ref=LEV_25:46!13|MId=o030250460131|Strong=0376 25-27 בְּאָחִ֔יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 26 case _ Gloss=over|Ref=LEV_25:46!14|MId=o030250460141|Strong=0871a 26 אָחִ֔י אָח NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 24 nmod _ Gloss=brother|Ref=LEV_25:46!14|MId=o030250460142|Strong=0251 27 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 26 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=LEV_25:46!14|MId=o030250460143|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 28 לֹא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 29 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=LEV_25:46!15|MId=o030250460151|Strong=3808|Type=negative|SpaceAfter=No 29 תִרְדֶּ֥ה רָדָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 2 conj _ Gloss=you.will.rule|Ref=LEV_25:46!16|MId=o030250460161|Strong=7287|Frame=A0:030250460111;|Type=yiqtol 30-31 ב֖וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 30 ב בְּ ADP _ _ 31 case _ Gloss=over|Ref=LEV_25:46!17|MId=o030250460171|Strong=0871a 31 ֖וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 29 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=LEV_25:46!17|MId=o030250460172|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 32-33 בְּפָֽרֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 32 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 33 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=LEV_25:46!18|MId=o030250460181|Strong=0871a 33 פָֽרֶךְ פֶּרֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 29 obl _ Gloss=harshness|Ref=LEV_25:46!18|MId=o030250460182|Strong=6531 34 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 33 punct _ Ref=LEV_25:46!18|SpaceAfter=No 35 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 33 punct _ Ref=LEV_25:46!18 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
