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, priest — and what happens in the verse to priest, beast, 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. לֹ֣א יַחֲלִיפֶ֗נּוּ וְלֹֽא־יָמִ֥יר אֹת֛וֹ ט֥וֹב בְּרָ֖ע אוֹ־רַ֣ע בְּט֑וֹב וְאִם־הָמֵ֨ר יָמִ֤יר בְּהֵמָה֙ בִּבְהֵמָ֔ה וְהָֽיָה־ה֥וּא וּתְמוּרָת֖וֹ יִֽהְיֶה־קֹּֽדֶשׁ׃ [He shall not alter it, nor change it, a good for a bad, or a bad for a good; and if he shall at all change beast for beast, then both it and that for which it is changed shall be holy.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/LEV.844/) ## 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:834 # text = לֹ֣א יַחֲלִיפֶ֗נּוּ וְלֹֽא־יָמִ֥יר אֹת֛וֹ ט֥וֹב בְּרָ֖ע אוֹ־רַ֣ע בְּט֑וֹב וְאִם־הָמֵ֨ר יָמִ֤יר בְּהֵמָה֙ בִּבְהֵמָ֔ה וְהָֽיָה־ה֥וּא וּתְמוּרָת֖וֹ יִֽהְיֶה־קֹּֽדֶשׁ׃ # verse = LEV.27.10 1 לֹ֣א לֹא ADV _ _ 2 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=LEV_27:10!1|MId=o030270100011|Strong=3808|Type=negative 2-3 יַחֲלִיפֶ֗נּוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2 יַחֲלִיפ חָלַף VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he|Ref=LEV_27:10!2|MId=o030270100021|Strong=2498|Frame=AA:030270080162;A0:030270100022;|Type=yiqtol 3 ֶ֗נּוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 2 obj _ Gloss=will.substitute.it|Ref=LEV_27:10!2|MId=o030270100022|Strong=5105b|Type=pronominal 4-5 וְלֹֽא־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 6 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_27:10!3|MId=o030270100031|Strong=2050b 5 לֹֽא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 6 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=LEV_27:10!3|MId=o030270100032|Strong=3808|Type=negative 6 יָמִ֥יר מוּר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.will.exchange|Ref=LEV_27:10!4|MId=o030270100041|Strong=4171|Frame=AA:030270080162;A0:030270100052;|Type=yiqtol 7-8 אֹת֛וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 אֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=|Ref=LEV_27:10!5|MId=o030270100051|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 8 ֛וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 6 obj _ Gloss=it|Ref=LEV_27:10!5|MId=o030270100052|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 9 ט֥וֹב טוֹב ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 parataxis _ Gloss=good|Ref=LEV_27:10!6|MId=o030270100061|Strong=2896|Type=adjective 10-11 בְּרָ֖ע _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=LEV_27:10!7|MId=o030270100071|Strong=0871a 11 רָ֖ע רַע ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 obl _ Gloss=bad|Ref=LEV_27:10!7|MId=o030270100072|Strong=7451|Type=adjective 12 אוֹ־ אוֹ CCONJ _ _ 13 cc _ Gloss=or|Ref=LEV_27:10!8|MId=o030270100081|Strong=0176|SpaceAfter=No 13 רַ֣ע רַע ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 conj _ Gloss=bad|Ref=LEV_27:10!9|MId=o030270100091|Strong=7451|Type=adjective 14-15 בְּט֑וֹב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=LEV_27:10!10|MId=o030270100101|Strong=0871a 15 ט֑וֹב טוֹב ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 obl _ Gloss=good|Ref=LEV_27:10!10|MId=o030270100102|Strong=2896|Type=adjective 16-17 וְאִם־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 30 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_27:10!11|MId=o030270100111|Strong=2050b 17 אִם־ אִם SCONJ _ _ 19 mark _ Gloss=if|Ref=LEV_27:10!11|MId=o030270100112|Strong=0518 18 הָמֵ֨ר מוּר VERB _ HebBinyan=HIPHIL 19 obl:npmod _ Gloss=actually.(exchange)|Ref=LEV_27:10!12|MId=o030270100121|Strong=4171|Type=infinitive_absolute 19 יָמִ֤יר מוּר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 30 advcl _ Gloss=he.will.exchange|Ref=LEV_27:10!13|MId=o030270100131|Strong=4171|Frame=AA:030270080162;A0:030270100141;|Type=yiqtol 20 בְּהֵמָה֙ בְּהֵמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 19 obj _ Gloss=an.animal|Ref=LEV_27:10!14|MId=o030270100141|Strong=0929 21-22 בִּבְהֵמָ֔ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 בִּ בְּ ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=LEV_27:10!15|MId=o030270100151|Strong=0871a 22 בְהֵמָ֔ה בְּהֵמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 19 obl _ Gloss=an.animal|Ref=LEV_27:10!15|MId=o030270100152|Strong=0929 23-24 וְהָֽיָה־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 24 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_27:10!16|MId=o030270100161|Strong=2050b 24 הָֽיָה־ הָיָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 30 parataxis _ Gloss=it.will.be|Ref=LEV_27:10!16|MId=o030270100162|Strong=1961|Type=weqatal 25 ה֥וּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 30 nsubj _ Gloss=it|Ref=LEV_27:10!17|MId=o030270100171|Strong=1931|Type=personal 26-28 וּתְמוּרָת֖וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 27 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_27:10!18|MId=o030270100181|Strong=2050b 27 תְמוּרָת תְּמוּרָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 25 conj _ Gloss=substitute|Ref=LEV_27:10!18|MId=o030270100182|Strong=8545 28 ֖וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 27 nmod:poss _ Gloss=its|Ref=LEV_27:10!18|MId=o030270100183|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 29 יִֽהְיֶה־ הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 30 cop _ Gloss=it.will.be|Ref=LEV_27:10!19|MId=o030270100191|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:030270100171;030270100182;|Type=yiqtol|SpaceAfter=No 30 קֹּֽדֶשׁ קֹדֶשׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 conj _ Gloss=a.holy.thing|Ref=LEV_27:10!20|MId=o030270100201|Strong=6944|SpaceAfter=No 31 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 30 punct _ Ref=LEV_27:10!20 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
