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 — avenger, bloodguiltiness — and what happens in the verse to manslayer, 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. וּמָצָ֤א אֹתוֹ֙ גֹּאֵ֣ל הַדָּ֔ם מִח֕וּץ לִגְב֖וּל עִ֣יר מִקְלָט֑וֹ וְרָצַ֞ח גֹּאֵ֤ל הַדָּם֙ אֶת־הָ֣רֹצֵ֔חַ אֵ֥ין ל֖וֹ דָּֽם׃ [and the avenger of blood find him without the border of his city of refuge, and the avenger of blood slay the manslayer; there shall be no bloodguiltiness for him;](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/NUM.1303/) ## 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:1268 # text = וּמָצָ֤א אֹתוֹ֙ גֹּאֵ֣ל הַדָּ֔ם מִח֕וּץ לִגְב֖וּל עִ֣יר מִקְלָט֑וֹ וְרָצַ֞ח גֹּאֵ֤ל הַדָּם֙ אֶת־הָ֣רֹצֵ֔חַ אֵ֥ין ל֖וֹ דָּֽם׃ # verse = NUM.35.27 1-2 וּמָצָ֤א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_35:27!1|MId=o040350270011|Strong=2050b 2 מָצָ֤א מָצָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.will.find|Ref=NUM_35:27!1|MId=o040350270012|Strong=4672|Frame=A1:040350270022;A0:040350270031;|Type=qatal 3-4 אֹתוֹ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 אֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=|Ref=NUM_35:27!2|MId=o040350270021|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 4 וֹ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 2 obj _ Gloss=him|Ref=NUM_35:27!2|MId=o040350270022|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 5 גֹּאֵ֣ל גָּאַל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=the.avenger|Ref=NUM_35:27!3|MId=o040350270031|Strong=1350|Frame=A1:040350270042;|Type=participle_active 6-7 הַדָּ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 7 det _ Gloss=of.(the)|Ref=NUM_35:27!4|MId=o040350270041|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 7 דָּ֔ם דָּם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 5 compound:smixut _ Gloss=blood|Ref=NUM_35:27!4|MId=o040350270042|Strong=1818 8-9 מִח֕וּץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=from.[the]|Ref=NUM_35:27!5|MId=o040350270051|Strong=4480 9 ח֕וּץ חוּץ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=outside|Ref=NUM_35:27!5|MId=o040350270052|Strong=2351 10-11 לִגְב֖וּל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=of|Ref=NUM_35:27!6|MId=o040350270061|Strong=3807a 11 גְב֖וּל גְּבוּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 nmod _ Gloss=the.border|Ref=NUM_35:27!6|MId=o040350270062|Strong=1366 12 עִ֣יר עִיר NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 11 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.the.city|Ref=NUM_35:27!7|MId=o040350270071|Strong=5892 13-14 מִקְלָט֑וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 מִקְלָט מִקְלָט NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 compound:smixut _ Gloss=his.refuge|Ref=NUM_35:27!8|MId=o040350270081|Strong=4733 14 ֑וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 13 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=NUM_35:27!8|MId=o040350270082|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 15-16 וְרָצַ֞ח _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_35:27!9|MId=o040350270091|Strong=2050b 16 רָצַ֞ח רָצַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.will.kill|Ref=NUM_35:27!9|MId=o040350270092|Strong=7523|Frame=A0:040350270101;A1:040350270132;|Type=weqatal 17 גֹּאֵ֤ל גָּאַל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 16 nsubj _ Gloss=the.avenger|Ref=NUM_35:27!10|MId=o040350270101|Strong=1350|Frame=A1:040350270112;|Type=participle_active 18-19 הַדָּם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 19 det _ Gloss=of.(the)|Ref=NUM_35:27!11|MId=o040350270111|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 19 דָּם֙ דָּם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 compound:smixut _ Gloss=blood|Ref=NUM_35:27!11|MId=o040350270112|Strong=1818 20 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=NUM_35:27!12|MId=o040350270121|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 21-22 הָ֣רֹצֵ֔חַ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 הָ֣ הַ SCONJ _ _ 22 mark _ Gloss=the|Ref=NUM_35:27!13|MId=o040350270131|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 22 רֹצֵ֔חַ רָצַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 16 obj _ Gloss=killer|Ref=NUM_35:27!13|MId=o040350270132|Strong=7523|Type=participle_active 23 אֵ֥ין אַיִן ADV _ _ 2 parataxis _ Gloss=there.[will].not.[be]|Ref=NUM_35:27!14|MId=o040350270141|Strong=0369|Type=negative 24-25 ל֖וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 ל לְ ADP _ _ 25 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=NUM_35:27!15|MId=o040350270151|Strong=3807a 25 ֖וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 23 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=NUM_35:27!15|MId=o040350270152|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 26 דָּֽם דָּם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 23 nsubj _ Gloss=blood|Ref=NUM_35:27!16|MId=o040350270161|Strong=1818|SpaceAfter=No 27 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=NUM_35:27!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | **not** מָצָא *he will find* | qatal · qal | גֹּאֵל *the avenger* | וֹ *him* | | | | גֹּאֵל *the avenger* | participle active · qal | | דָּם *blood* | | | | רָצַח *he will kill* | weqatal · qal | גֹּאֵל *the avenger* | רֹצֵחַ *killer* | | | | גֹּאֵל *the avenger* | participle active · qal | | דָּם *blood* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
