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, means, thy — and what happens in the verse to man, priest, 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. וְאִם־מָ֥ךְ הוּא֙ מֵֽעֶרְכֶּ֔ךָ וְהֶֽעֱמִידוֹ֙ לִפְנֵ֣י הַכֹּהֵ֔ן וְהֶעֱרִ֥יךְ אֹת֖וֹ הַכֹּהֵ֑ן עַל־פִּ֗י אֲשֶׁ֤ר תַּשִּׂיג֙ יַ֣ד הַנֹּדֵ֔ר יַעֲרִיכֶ֖נּוּ הַכֹּהֵֽן׃ס [But if he be too poor for thy valuation, then he shall be set before the priest, and the priest shall value him; according to the means of him that vowed shall the priest value him.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/LEV.842/) ## 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:832 # text = וְאִם־מָ֥ךְ הוּא֙ מֵֽעֶרְכֶּ֔ךָ וְהֶֽעֱמִידוֹ֙ לִפְנֵ֣י הַכֹּהֵ֔ן וְהֶעֱרִ֥יךְ אֹת֖וֹ הַכֹּהֵ֑ן עַל־פִּ֗י אֲשֶׁ֤ר תַּשִּׂיג֙ יַ֣ד הַנֹּדֵ֔ר יַעֲרִיכֶ֖נּוּ הַכֹּהֵֽן׃ס # verse = LEV.27.8 1-2 וְאִם־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 9 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_27:8!1|MId=o030270080011|Strong=2050b 2 אִם־ אִם SCONJ _ _ 3 mark _ Gloss=if|Ref=LEV_27:8!1|MId=o030270080012|Strong=0518 3 מָ֥ךְ מוּךְ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 9 advcl _ Gloss=[is.too].impoverished|Ref=LEV_27:8!2|MId=o030270080021|Strong=4134|Frame=A0:030270080031;|Type=participle_active 4 הוּא֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 3 nsubj _ Gloss=he|Ref=LEV_27:8!3|MId=o030270080031|Strong=1931|Type=personal 5-7 מֵֽעֶרְכֶּ֔ךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 מֵֽ מִן ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=LEV_27:8!4|MId=o030270080041|Strong=4480 6 עֶרְכּ עֵרֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 obl _ Gloss=valuation|Ref=LEV_27:8!4|MId=o030270080042|Strong=6187 7 ֶ֔ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 6 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=LEV_27:8!4|MId=o030270080043|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 8-10 וְהֶֽעֱמִידוֹ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 9 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_27:8!5|MId=o030270080051|Strong=2050b 9 הֶֽעֱמִיד עָמַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he|Ref=LEV_27:8!5|MId=o030270080052|Strong=5975|Frame=AA:030270020071;A0:030270080053;|Type=weqatal 10 וֹ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 9 obj _ Gloss=will.station.him|Ref=LEV_27:8!5|MId=o030270080053|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 11-12 לִפְנֵ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=before|Ref=LEV_27:8!6|MId=o030270080061|Strong=3807a 12 פְנֵ֣י פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 9 obl _ Gloss=|Ref=LEV_27:8!6|MId=o030270080062|Strong=6440 13-14 הַכֹּהֵ֔ן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 14 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=LEV_27:8!7|MId=o030270080071|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 14 כֹּהֵ֔ן כֹּהֵן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 compound:smixut _ Gloss=priest|Ref=LEV_27:8!7|MId=o030270080072|Strong=3548 15-16 וְהֶעֱרִ֥יךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_27:8!8|MId=o030270080081|Strong=2050b 16 הֶעֱרִ֥יךְ עָרַךְ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 9 conj _ Gloss=he.will.evaluate|Ref=LEV_27:8!8|MId=o030270080082|Strong=6186|Frame=A0:030270080092;AA:030270080102;|Type=weqatal 17-18 אֹת֖וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 אֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=|Ref=LEV_27:8!9|MId=o030270080091|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 18 ֖וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 16 obj _ Gloss=him|Ref=LEV_27:8!9|MId=o030270080092|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 19-20 הַכֹּהֵ֑ן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 20 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=LEV_27:8!10|MId=o030270080101|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 20 כֹּהֵ֑ן כֹּהֵן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 nsubj _ Gloss=priest|Ref=LEV_27:8!10|MId=o030270080102|Strong=3548 21 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=LEV_27:8!11|MId=o030270080111|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 22 פִּ֗י פֶּה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 28 obl _ Gloss=the.mouth|Ref=LEV_27:8!12|MId=o030270080121|Strong=6310 23 אֲשֶׁ֤ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 24 mark _ Gloss=of.[that].which|Ref=LEV_27:8!13|MId=o030270080131|Strong=0834|Type=relative 24 תַּשִּׂיג֙ נָשַׂג VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 22 acl:relcl _ Gloss=it.will.reach|Ref=LEV_27:8!14|MId=o030270080141|Strong=5381|Frame=AA:030270080151;A0:030270080121;|Type=yiqtol 25 יַ֣ד יָד NOUN _ Number=Sing 24 nsubj _ Gloss=the.hand|Ref=LEV_27:8!15|MId=o030270080151|Strong=3027 26-27 הַנֹּדֵ֔ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 27 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=LEV_27:8!16|MId=o030270080161|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 27 נֹּדֵ֔ר נָדַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 25 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.[one.who].vows|Ref=LEV_27:8!16|MId=o030270080162|Strong=5087|Type=participle_active 28-29 יַעֲרִיכֶ֖נּוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 28 יַעֲרִיכ עָרַךְ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 9 parataxis _ Gloss=he|Ref=LEV_27:8!17|MId=o030270080171|Strong=6186|Frame=A0:030270080172;AA:030270080182;|Type=yiqtol 29 ֶ֖נּוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 28 obj _ Gloss=will.evaluate.him|Ref=LEV_27:8!17|MId=o030270080172|Strong=5105b|Type=pronominal 30-31 הַכֹּהֵֽן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 30 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 31 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=LEV_27:8!18|MId=o030270080181|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 31 כֹּהֵֽן כֹּהֵן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 28 nsubj _ Gloss=priest|Ref=LEV_27:8!18|MId=o030270080182|Strong=3548 32 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 31 punct _ Ref=LEV_27:8!18|SpaceAfter=No 33 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 31 punct _ Ref=LEV_27:8!18 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
