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 — offering, sacrifice, sons — and what happens in the verse to ox, blood, offering, peace offerings, 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. וַיִּשְׁחַ֤ט אֶת־הַשּׁוֹר֙ וְאֶת־הָאַ֔יִל זֶ֥בַח הַשְּׁלָמִ֖ים אֲשֶׁ֣ר לָעָ֑ם וַ֠יַּמְצִאוּ בְּנֵ֨י אַהֲרֹ֤ן אֶת־הַדָּם֙ אֵלָ֔יו וַיִּזְרְקֵ֥הוּ עַל־הַמִּזְבֵּ֖חַ סָבִֽיב׃ [He slew also the ox and the ram, the sacrifice of peace-offerings, which was for the people; and Aaron's sons delivered unto him the blood, and he dashed it against the altar round about,](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/LEV.228/) ## 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:225 # text = וַיִּשְׁחַ֤ט אֶת־הַשּׁוֹר֙ וְאֶת־הָאַ֔יִל זֶ֥בַח הַשְּׁלָמִ֖ים אֲשֶׁ֣ר לָעָ֑ם וַ֠יַּמְצִאוּ בְּנֵ֨י אַהֲרֹ֤ן אֶת־הַדָּם֙ אֵלָ֔יו וַיִּזְרְקֵ֥הוּ עַל־הַמִּזְבֵּ֖חַ סָבִֽיב׃ # verse = LEV.9.18 1-2 וַיִּשְׁחַ֤ט _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_9:18!1|MId=o030090180011|Strong=2050b 2 יִּשְׁחַ֤ט שָׁחַט VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.cut.the.throat.of|Ref=LEV_9:18!1|MId=o030090180012|Strong=7819|Frame=A0:030090120061;A1:030090180032;030090180052;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=LEV_9:18!2|MId=o030090180021|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 4-5 הַשּׁוֹר֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 5 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=LEV_9:18!3|MId=o030090180031|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 5 שּׁוֹר֙ שׁוֹר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=ox|Ref=LEV_9:18!3|MId=o030090180032|Strong=7794 6-7 וְאֶת־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 9 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_9:18!4|MId=o030090180041|Strong=2050b 7 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=LEV_9:18!4|MId=o030090180042|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 8-9 הָאַ֔יִל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 9 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=LEV_9:18!5|MId=o030090180051|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 9 אַ֔יִל אַיִל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 5 conj _ Gloss=ram|Ref=LEV_9:18!5|MId=o030090180052|Strong=0352 10 זֶ֥בַח זֶבַח NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 xcomp _ Gloss=the.sacrifice|Ref=LEV_9:18!6|MId=o030090180061|Strong=2077 11-12 הַשְּׁלָמִ֖ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 12 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=LEV_9:18!7|MId=o030090180071|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 12 שְּׁלָמִ֖ים שֶׁלֶם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 10 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.peace.offerings|Ref=LEV_9:18!7|MId=o030090180072|Strong=8002 13 אֲשֶׁ֣ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 16 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=LEV_9:18!8|MId=o030090180081|Strong=0834|Type=relative 14-16 לָעָ֑ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 לָ לְ ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=[was].for|Ref=LEV_9:18!9|MId=o030090180091|Strong=3807a 15 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 16 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=LEV_9:18!9|MId=o030090180091ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 16 עָ֑ם עַם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 acl:relcl _ Gloss=people|Ref=LEV_9:18!9|MId=o030090180092|Strong=5971 17-18 וַ֠יַּמְצִאוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 וַ֠ וְ CCONJ _ _ 18 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_9:18!10|MId=o030090180101|Strong=2050b 18 יַּמְצִאוּ מָצָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they.brought.forward|Ref=LEV_9:18!10|MId=o030090180102|Strong=4672|Frame=AA:030090180111;A0:030090180142;|Type=wayyiqtol 19 בְּנֵ֨י בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 18 nsubj _ Gloss=the.sons|Ref=LEV_9:18!11|MId=o030090180111|Strong=1121 20 אַהֲרֹ֤ן אַהֲרֹן PROPN _ _ 19 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Aaron|Ref=LEV_9:18!12|MId=o030090180121|Strong=0175 21 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=LEV_9:18!13|MId=o030090180131|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 22-23 הַדָּם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 23 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=LEV_9:18!14|MId=o030090180141|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 23 דָּם֙ דָּם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 18 obj _ Gloss=blood|Ref=LEV_9:18!14|MId=o030090180142|Strong=1818 24-25 אֵלָ֔יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 אֵלָ֔י אֶל ADP _ _ 25 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=LEV_9:18!15|MId=o030090180151|Strong=0413 25 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 18 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=LEV_9:18!15|MId=o030090180152|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 26-28 וַיִּזְרְקֵ֥הוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 27 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_9:18!16|MId=o030090180161|Strong=2050b 27 יִּזְרְק זָרַק VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he|Ref=LEV_9:18!16|MId=o030090180162|Strong=2236|Frame=A0:030090180121;A1:030090180163;|Type=wayyiqtol 28 ֵ֥הוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 27 obj _ Gloss=sprinkled.it|Ref=LEV_9:18!16|MId=o030090180163|Strong=1930a|Type=pronominal 29 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 31 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=LEV_9:18!17|MId=o030090180171|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 30-31 הַמִּזְבֵּ֖חַ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 30 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 31 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=LEV_9:18!18|MId=o030090180181|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 31 מִּזְבֵּ֖חַ מִזְבֵּחַ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 27 obl _ Gloss=altar|Ref=LEV_9:18!18|MId=o030090180182|Strong=4196 32 סָבִֽיב סָבִיב ADV _ Number=Sing 27 advmod _ Gloss=all.around|Ref=LEV_9:18!19|MId=o030090180191|Strong=5439|SpaceAfter=No 33 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 32 punct _ Ref=LEV_9:18!19 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
