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 — Aaron, sons — and what happens in the verse to hand, head, offering, blood, 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. וְסָמַ֤ךְ אֶת־יָדוֹ֙ עַל־רֹאשׁ֔וֹ וְשָׁחַ֣ט אֹת֔וֹ לִפְנֵ֖י אֹ֣הֶל מוֹעֵ֑ד וְ֠זָרְקוּ בְּנֵ֨י אַהֲרֹ֧ן אֶת־דָּמ֛וֹ עַל־הַמִּזְבֵּ֖חַ סָבִֽיב׃ [And he shall lay his hand upon the head of it, and kill it before the tent of meeting; and the sons of Aaron shall dash the blood thereof against the altar round about.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/LEV.45/) ## 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:45 # text = וְסָמַ֤ךְ אֶת־יָדוֹ֙ עַל־רֹאשׁ֔וֹ וְשָׁחַ֣ט אֹת֔וֹ לִפְנֵ֖י אֹ֣הֶל מוֹעֵ֑ד וְ֠זָרְקוּ בְּנֵ֨י אַהֲרֹ֧ן אֶת־דָּמ֛וֹ עַל־הַמִּזְבֵּ֖חַ סָבִֽיב׃ # verse = LEV.3.13 1-2 וְסָמַ֤ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_3:13!1|MId=o030030130011|Strong=2050b 2 סָמַ֤ךְ סָמַךְ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.will.lean|Ref=LEV_3:13!1|MId=o030030130012|Strong=5564|Frame=A0:030020010012;A1:030030130031;|Type=weqatal 3 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=LEV_3:13!2|MId=o030030130021|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 4-5 יָדוֹ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 יָד יָד NOUN _ Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=hand|Ref=LEV_3:13!3|MId=o030030130031|Strong=3027 5 וֹ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 4 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=LEV_3:13!3|MId=o030030130032|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 6 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=LEV_3:13!4|MId=o030030130041|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 7-8 רֹאשׁ֔וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 רֹאשׁ רֹאשׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=head|Ref=LEV_3:13!5|MId=o030030130051|Strong=7218 8 ֔וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 7 nmod:poss _ Gloss=its|Ref=LEV_3:13!5|MId=o030030130052|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 9-10 וְשָׁחַ֣ט _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 10 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_3:13!6|MId=o030030130061|Strong=2050b 10 שָׁחַ֣ט שָׁחַט VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.will.cut.the.throat.of|Ref=LEV_3:13!6|MId=o030030130062|Strong=7819|Frame=A0:030020010012;A1:030030130072;|Type=weqatal 11-12 אֹת֔וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 אֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=|Ref=LEV_3:13!7|MId=o030030130071|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 12 ֔וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 10 obj _ Gloss=it|Ref=LEV_3:13!7|MId=o030030130072|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 13-14 לִפְנֵ֖י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=before|Ref=LEV_3:13!8|MId=o030030130081|Strong=3807a 14 פְנֵ֖י פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 10 obl _ Gloss=|Ref=LEV_3:13!8|MId=o030030130082|Strong=6440 15 אֹ֣הֶל אֹהֶל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 14 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.tent|Ref=LEV_3:13!9|MId=o030030130091|Strong=0168 16 מוֹעֵ֑ד מוֹעֵד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 15 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.meeting|Ref=LEV_3:13!10|MId=o030030130101|Strong=4150 17-18 וְ֠זָרְקוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 וְ֠ וְ CCONJ _ _ 18 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_3:13!11|MId=o030030130111|Strong=2050b 18 זָרְקוּ זָרַק VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they.will.sprinkle|Ref=LEV_3:13!11|MId=o030030130112|Strong=2236|Frame=A0:030030130121;A1:030030130151;|Type=weqatal 19 בְּנֵ֨י בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 18 nsubj _ Gloss=the.sons|Ref=LEV_3:13!12|MId=o030030130121|Strong=1121 20 אַהֲרֹ֧ן אַהֲרֹן PROPN _ _ 19 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Aaron|Ref=LEV_3:13!13|MId=o030030130131|Strong=0175 21 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=LEV_3:13!14|MId=o030030130141|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 22-23 דָּמ֛וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 דָּמ דָּם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 18 obj _ Gloss=blood|Ref=LEV_3:13!15|MId=o030030130151|Strong=1818 23 ֛וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 22 nmod:poss _ Gloss=its|Ref=LEV_3:13!15|MId=o030030130152|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 24 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 26 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=LEV_3:13!16|MId=o030030130161|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 25-26 הַמִּזְבֵּ֖חַ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 26 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=LEV_3:13!17|MId=o030030130171|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 26 מִּזְבֵּ֖חַ מִזְבֵּחַ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 18 obl _ Gloss=altar|Ref=LEV_3:13!17|MId=o030030130172|Strong=4196 27 סָבִֽיב סָבִיב ADV _ Number=Sing 18 advmod _ Gloss=all.around|Ref=LEV_3:13!18|MId=o030030130181|Strong=5439|SpaceAfter=No 28 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 27 punct _ Ref=LEV_3:13!18 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | סָמַךְ *he will lean* | weqatal · qal | | יָד *hand* | | | | שָׁחַט *he will cut the throat of* | weqatal · qal | | וֹ *it* | | | | זָרְקוּ *they will sprinkle* | weqatal · qal | בְּנֵי *the sons* | דָּמ *blood* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
