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 — This, LORD, children — and what happens in the verse to thing, children, family, 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. זֶ֣ה הַדָּבָ֞ר אֲשֶׁר־צִוָּ֣ה יְהוָ֗ה לִבְנ֤וֹת צְלָפְחָד֙ לֵאמֹ֔ר לַטּ֥וֹב בְּעֵינֵיהֶ֖ם תִּהְיֶ֣ינָה לְנָשִׁ֑ים אַ֗ךְ לְמִשְׁפַּ֛חַת מַטֵּ֥ה אֲבִיהֶ֖ם תִּהְיֶ֥ינָה לְנָשִֽׁים׃ [This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying: Let them be married to whom they think best; only into the family of the tribe of their father shall they be married.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/NUM.1316/) ## 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:1281 # text = זֶ֣ה הַדָּבָ֞ר אֲשֶׁר־צִוָּ֣ה יְהוָ֗ה לִבְנ֤וֹת צְלָפְחָד֙ לֵאמֹ֔ר לַטּ֥וֹב בְּעֵינֵיהֶ֖ם תִּהְיֶ֣ינָה לְנָשִׁ֑ים אַ֗ךְ לְמִשְׁפַּ֛חַת מַטֵּ֥ה אֲבִיהֶ֖ם תִּהְיֶ֥ינָה לְנָשִֽׁים׃ # verse = NUM.36.6 1 זֶ֣ה זֶה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 0 root _ Gloss=this|Ref=NUM_36:6!1|MId=o040360060011|Strong=2088|Type=demonstrative 2-3 הַדָּבָ֞ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 3 det _ Gloss=[is].the|Ref=NUM_36:6!2|MId=o040360060021|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 3 דָּבָ֞ר דָּבָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 1 nsubj _ Gloss=word|Ref=NUM_36:6!2|MId=o040360060022|Strong=1697 4 אֲשֶׁר־ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 5 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=NUM_36:6!3|MId=o040360060031|Strong=0834|Type=relative|SpaceAfter=No 5 צִוָּ֣ה צָוָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=3 3 acl:relcl _ Gloss=he.has.commanded|Ref=NUM_36:6!4|MId=o040360060041|Strong=6680|Frame=A0:040360060051;A1:040360060022;|Type=qatal 6 יְהוָ֗ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 5 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=NUM_36:6!5|MId=o040360060051|Strong=3068 7-8 לִבְנ֤וֹת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=of|Ref=NUM_36:6!6|MId=o040360060061|Strong=3807a 8 בְנ֤וֹת בַּת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 5 obl _ Gloss=the.daughters|Ref=NUM_36:6!6|MId=o040360060062|Strong=1323 9 צְלָפְחָד֙ צְלׇפְחָד PROPN _ _ 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Zelophehad|Ref=NUM_36:6!7|MId=o040360060071|Strong=6765 10-11 לֵאמֹ֔ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 לֵ לְ ADP _ ExtPos=SCONJ 14 mark _ Gloss=(cmp)|Ref=NUM_36:6!8|MId=o040360060081|Strong=3807a 11 אמֹ֔ר אָמַר VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 10 fixed _ Gloss=|Ref=NUM_36:6!8|MId=o040360060082|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:040360060051;|Type=infinitive_construct 12-14 לַטּ֥וֹב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=NUM_36:6!9|MId=o040360060091|Strong=3807a 13 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 14 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=NUM_36:6!9|MId=o040360060091ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 14 טּ֥וֹב טוֹב ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 5 ccomp _ Gloss=good|Ref=NUM_36:6!9|MId=o040360060092|Strong=2896|Type=adjective 15-17 בְּעֵינֵיהֶ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=NUM_36:6!10|MId=o040360060101|Strong=0871a 16 עֵינֵי עַיִן NOUN _ Number=Dual 14 nmod _ Gloss=their.own|Ref=NUM_36:6!10|MId=o040360060102|Strong=5869 17 הֶ֖ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 16 nmod:poss _ Gloss=eyes|Ref=NUM_36:6!10|MId=o040360060103|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 18 תִּהְיֶ֣ינָה הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 14 cop _ Gloss=they.will.belong|Ref=NUM_36:6!11|MId=o040360060111|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:040360060062;|Type=yiqtol 19-20 לְנָשִׁ֑ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=NUM_36:6!12|MId=o040360060121|Strong=3807a 20 נָשִׁ֑ים אִשָּׁה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 14 obl _ Gloss=wives|Ref=NUM_36:6!12|MId=o040360060122|Strong=0802 21 אַ֗ךְ אַךְ ADV _ _ 23 advmod _ Gloss=only|Ref=NUM_36:6!13|MId=o040360060131|Strong=0389|Type=affirmation 22-23 לְמִשְׁפַּ֛חַת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=NUM_36:6!14|MId=o040360060141|Strong=3807a 23 מִשְׁפַּ֛חַת מִשְׁפַּחַת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 29 obl _ Gloss=the.clan|Ref=NUM_36:6!14|MId=o040360060142|Strong=4940 24 מַטֵּ֥ה מַטֶּה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 23 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.the.tribe|Ref=NUM_36:6!15|MId=o040360060151|Strong=4294 25-26 אֲבִיהֶ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 אֲבִי אָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 24 compound:smixut _ Gloss=their.ancestor|Ref=NUM_36:6!16|MId=o040360060161|Strong=0001 26 הֶ֖ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 25 nmod:poss _ Gloss=their|Ref=NUM_36:6!16|MId=o040360060162|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 27 תִּהְיֶ֥ינָה הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 29 cop _ Gloss=they.will.belong|Ref=NUM_36:6!17|MId=o040360060171|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:040360060062;|Type=yiqtol 28-29 לְנָשִֽׁים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 28 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 29 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=NUM_36:6!18|MId=o040360060181|Strong=3807a 29 נָשִֽׁים אִשָּׁה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 1 parataxis _ Gloss=wives|Ref=NUM_36:6!18|MId=o040360060182|Strong=0802 30 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 29 punct _ Ref=NUM_36:6!18 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: no - the frame alone: decl · assert · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | צִוָּה *he has commanded* | qatal · piel | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | דָּבָר *word* | | | | אמֹר | infinitive construct · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | | תִּהְיֶינָה *they will belong* | yiqtol · qal | בְנוֹת *the daughters* | | | | | תִּהְיֶינָה *they will belong* | yiqtol · qal | בְנוֹת *the daughters* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
