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 — words, earth — and what happens in the verse to words, pit, assembly, 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 36 chapters of Numbers on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַיֵּ֨רְד֜וּ הֵ֣ם וְכָל־אֲשֶׁ֥ר לָהֶ֛ם חַיִּ֖ים שְׁאֹ֑לָה וַתְּכַ֤ס עֲלֵיהֶם֙ הָאָ֔רֶץ וַיֹּאבְד֖וּ מִתּ֥וֹךְ הַקָּהָֽל׃ [So they, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into the pit; and the earth closed upon them, and they perished from among the assembly.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/NUM.642/) ## 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:NUM:622 # text = וַיֵּ֨רְד֜וּ הֵ֣ם וְכָל־אֲשֶׁ֥ר לָהֶ֛ם חַיִּ֖ים שְׁאֹ֑לָה וַתְּכַ֤ס עֲלֵיהֶם֙ הָאָ֔רֶץ וַיֹּאבְד֖וּ מִתּ֥וֹךְ הַקָּהָֽל׃ # verse = NUM.16.33 1-2 וַיֵּ֨רְד֜וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_16:33!1|MId=o040160330011|Strong=2050b 2 יֵּ֨רְד֜וּ יָרַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.went.down|Ref=NUM_16:33!1|MId=o040160330012|Strong=3381|Frame=A0:040160330021;040160330032;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 הֵ֣ם הֵם PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 2 nsubj _ Gloss=they|Ref=NUM_16:33!2|MId=o040160330021|Strong=1992|Type=personal 4-5 וְכָל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 5 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_16:33!3|MId=o040160330031|Strong=2050b 5 כָל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 conj _ Gloss=all|Ref=NUM_16:33!3|MId=o040160330032|Strong=3605 6 אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 8 mark _ Gloss=that|Ref=NUM_16:33!4|MId=o040160330041|Strong=0834|Type=relative 7-8 לָהֶ֛ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 ל לְ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=[belonged].to|Ref=NUM_16:33!5|MId=o040160330051|Strong=3807a 8 ָהֶ֛ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 5 acl:relcl _ Gloss=them|Ref=NUM_16:33!5|MId=o040160330052|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 9 חַיִּ֖ים חַי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 obl _ Gloss=alive|Ref=NUM_16:33!6|MId=o040160330061|Strong=2416|Type=adjective 10-11 שְׁאֹ֑לָה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 שְׁאֹ֑ל שְׁאוֹל PROPN _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=Sheol|Ref=NUM_16:33!7|MId=o040160330071|Strong=7585 11 ָה ה X _ _ 10 nmod _ Gloss=to|Ref=NUM_16:33!7|MId=o040160330072|Strong=1886c|Type=directional_he 12-13 וַתְּכַ֤ס _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 13 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_16:33!8|MId=o040160330081|Strong=2050b 13 תְּכַ֤ס כָּסָה VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=it.covered|Ref=NUM_16:33!8|MId=o040160330082|Strong=3680|Frame=A0:040160330102;|Type=wayyiqtol 14-15 עֲלֵיהֶם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 עֲלֵי עַל ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=over|Ref=NUM_16:33!9|MId=o040160330091|Strong=5921 15 הֶם֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 13 obl _ Gloss=them|Ref=NUM_16:33!9|MId=o040160330092|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 16-17 הָאָ֔רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 17 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=NUM_16:33!10|MId=o040160330101|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 17 אָ֔רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 13 nsubj _ Gloss=earth|Ref=NUM_16:33!10|MId=o040160330102|Strong=0776 18-19 וַיֹּאבְד֖וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 19 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_16:33!11|MId=o040160330111|Strong=2050b 19 יֹּאבְד֖וּ אָבַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they.perished|Ref=NUM_16:33!11|MId=o040160330112|Strong=0006|Frame=A0:040160320132;040160270082;040160270092;|Type=wayyiqtol 20-21 מִתּ֥וֹךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 21 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=NUM_16:33!12|MId=o040160330121|Strong=4480 21 תּ֥וֹךְ תָּוֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 19 obl _ Gloss=among|Ref=NUM_16:33!12|MId=o040160330122|Strong=8432 22-23 הַקָּהָֽל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 23 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=NUM_16:33!13|MId=o040160330131|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 23 קָּהָֽל קָהָל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 21 compound:smixut _ Gloss=assembly|Ref=NUM_16:33!13|MId=o040160330132|Strong=6951 24 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 23 punct _ Ref=NUM_16:33!13 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: narrate - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יֵּרְדוּ *they went down* | wayyiqtol · qal | הֵם *they* + כָל־ *all* | | | | | תְּכַס *it covered* | wayyiqtol · piel | אָרֶץ *earth* | | | | | יֹּאבְדוּ *they perished* | wayyiqtol · qal | | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
