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 — south side, south border — and what happens in the verse to wilderness, end, 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. וְהָיָ֨ה לָכֶ֧ם פְּאַת־נֶ֛גֶב מִמִּדְבַּר־צִ֖ן עַל־יְדֵ֣י אֱד֑וֹם וְהָיָ֤ה לָכֶם֙ גְּב֣וּל נֶ֔גֶב מִקְצֵ֥ה יָם־הַמֶּ֖לַח קֵֽדְמָה׃ [Thus your south side shall be from the wilderness of Zin close by the side of Edom, and your south border shall begin at the end of the Salt Sea eastward;](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/NUM.1249/) ## 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:1215 # text = וְהָיָ֨ה לָכֶ֧ם פְּאַת־נֶ֛גֶב מִמִּדְבַּר־צִ֖ן עַל־יְדֵ֣י אֱד֑וֹם וְהָיָ֤ה לָכֶם֙ גְּב֣וּל נֶ֔גֶב מִקְצֵ֥ה יָם־הַמֶּ֖לַח קֵֽדְמָה׃ # verse = NUM.34.3 1-2 וְהָיָ֨ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 4 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_34:3!1|MId=o040340030011|Strong=2050b 2 הָיָ֨ה הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 4 cop _ Gloss=it.will.be|Ref=NUM_34:3!1|MId=o040340030012|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:040340030031;|Type=weqatal 3-4 לָכֶ֧ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 ל לְ ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=NUM_34:3!2|MId=o040340030021|Strong=3807a 4 ָכֶ֧ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 0 root _ Gloss=you|Ref=NUM_34:3!2|MId=o040340030022|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 5 פְּאַת־ פֵּאָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 4 nsubj _ Gloss=[the].side|Ref=NUM_34:3!3|MId=o040340030031|Strong=6285|SpaceAfter=No 6 נֶ֛גֶב נֶגֶב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 5 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.[the].south|Ref=NUM_34:3!4|MId=o040340030041|Strong=5045 7-8 מִמִּדְבַּר־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=NUM_34:3!5|MId=o040340030051|Strong=4480 8 מִּדְבַּר־ מִדְבָּר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 obl _ Gloss=the.wilderness|Ref=NUM_34:3!5|MId=o040340030052|Strong=4057 9 צִ֖ן צִן PROPN _ _ 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Zin|Ref=NUM_34:3!6|MId=o040340030061|Strong=6790 10 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=NUM_34:3!7|MId=o040340030071|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 11 יְדֵ֣י יָד NOUN _ Number=Dual 4 obl _ Gloss=the.hands|Ref=NUM_34:3!8|MId=o040340030081|Strong=3027 12 אֱד֑וֹם אֱדוֹם PROPN _ _ 11 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Edom|Ref=NUM_34:3!9|MId=o040340030091|Strong=0123 13-14 וְהָיָ֤ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_34:3!10|MId=o040340030101|Strong=2050b 14 הָיָ֤ה הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 16 cop _ Gloss=it.will.be|Ref=NUM_34:3!10|MId=o040340030102|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:040340030121;|Type=weqatal 15-16 לָכֶם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 ל לְ ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=NUM_34:3!11|MId=o040340030111|Strong=3807a 16 ָכֶם֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 4 conj _ Gloss=you|Ref=NUM_34:3!11|MId=o040340030112|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 17 גְּב֣וּל גְּבוּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 nsubj _ Gloss=border|Ref=NUM_34:3!12|MId=o040340030121|Strong=1366 18 נֶ֔גֶב נֶגֶב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.[the].southward|Ref=NUM_34:3!13|MId=o040340030131|Strong=5045 19-20 מִקְצֵ֥ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=NUM_34:3!14|MId=o040340030141|Strong=4480 20 קְצֵ֥ה קָצֶה NOUN _ Number=Sing 16 obl _ Gloss=the.end|Ref=NUM_34:3!14|MId=o040340030142|Strong=7097 21 יָם־ יָם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 20 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.the.Sea|Ref=NUM_34:3!15|MId=o040340030151|Strong=3220|SpaceAfter=No 22-23 הַמֶּ֖לַח _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 23 det _ Gloss=of.(the)|Ref=NUM_34:3!16|MId=o040340030161|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 23 מֶּ֖לַח מֶלַח NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 21 compound:smixut _ Gloss=Salt|Ref=NUM_34:3!16|MId=o040340030162|Strong=4417 24-25 קֵֽדְמָה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 קֵֽדְמ קֵדֶם ADV _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 advmod _ Gloss=eastward|Ref=NUM_34:3!17|MId=o040340030171|Strong=6924a 25 ָה ה X _ _ 24 nmod _ Gloss=|Ref=NUM_34:3!17|MId=o040340030172|Strong=1886c|Type=directional_he 26 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 25 punct _ Ref=NUM_34:3!17 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | הָיָה *it will be* | weqatal · qal | פְּאַת־ *\[the\] side* | | | | | הָיָה *it will be* | weqatal · qal | גְּבוּל *border* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
