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 — children, LORD — and what happens in the verse to children, 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. וַיַּֽעֲשׂוּ־כֵן֙ בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל וַיְשַׁלְּח֣וּ אוֹתָ֔ם אֶל־מִח֖וּץ לַֽמַּחֲנֶ֑ה כַּאֲשֶׁ֨ר דִּבֶּ֤ר יְהוָה֙ אֶל־מֹשֶׁ֔ה כֵּ֥ן עָשׂ֖וּ בְּנֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃פ [And the children of Israel did so, and put them out without the camp; as the LORD spoke unto Moses, so did the children of Israel.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/NUM.193/) ## 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:191 # text = וַיַּֽעֲשׂוּ־כֵן֙ בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל וַיְשַׁלְּח֣וּ אוֹתָ֔ם אֶל־מִח֖וּץ לַֽמַּחֲנֶ֑ה כַּאֲשֶׁ֨ר דִּבֶּ֤ר יְהוָה֙ אֶל־מֹשֶׁ֔ה כֵּ֥ן עָשׂ֖וּ בְּנֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃פ # verse = NUM.5.4 1-2 וַיַּֽעֲשׂוּ־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_5:4!1|MId=o040050040011|Strong=2050b 2 יַּֽעֲשׂוּ־ עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.did|Ref=NUM_5:4!1|MId=o040050040012|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:040050040031;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 כֵן֙ כֵּן ADV _ _ 2 advmod _ Gloss=so|Ref=NUM_5:4!2|MId=o040050040021|Strong=3651 4 בְּנֵ֣י בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 nsubj _ Gloss=the.people|Ref=NUM_5:4!3|MId=o040050040031|Strong=1121 5 יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 4 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Israel|Ref=NUM_5:4!4|MId=o040050040041|Strong=3478 6-7 וַיְשַׁלְּח֣וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 7 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_5:4!5|MId=o040050040051|Strong=2050b 7 יְשַׁלְּח֣וּ שָׁלַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they.sent.away|Ref=NUM_5:4!5|MId=o040050040052|Strong=7971|Frame=A0:040050040031;A1:040050040062;|Type=wayyiqtol 8-9 אוֹתָ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 אוֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=|Ref=NUM_5:4!6|MId=o040050040061|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 9 ָ֔ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 7 obj _ Gloss=them|Ref=NUM_5:4!6|MId=o040050040062|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 10 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=NUM_5:4!7|MId=o040050040071|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 11-12 מִח֖וּץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=from.[the]|Ref=NUM_5:4!8|MId=o040050040081|Strong=4480 12 ח֖וּץ חוּץ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 7 obl _ Gloss=outside|Ref=NUM_5:4!8|MId=o040050040082|Strong=2351 13-15 לַֽמַּחֲנֶ֑ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 לַֽ לְ ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=of|Ref=NUM_5:4!9|MId=o040050040091|Strong=3807a 14 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 15 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=NUM_5:4!9|MId=o040050040091ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 15 מַּחֲנֶ֑ה מַחֲנֶה NOUN _ Number=Sing 12 nmod _ Gloss=camp|Ref=NUM_5:4!9|MId=o040050040092|Strong=4264 16-17 כַּאֲשֶׁ֨ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 כַּ כְּ ADP _ _ 23 obl _ Gloss=just|Ref=NUM_5:4!10|MId=o040050040101|Strong=3509a 17 אֲשֶׁ֨ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 18 mark _ Gloss=as|Ref=NUM_5:4!10|MId=o040050040102|Strong=0834|Type=relative 18 דִּבֶּ֤ר דָבַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=3 16 acl:relcl _ Gloss=he.had.spoken|Ref=NUM_5:4!11|MId=o040050040111|Strong=1696|Frame=A0:040050040121;|Type=qatal 19 יְהוָה֙ יהוה PROPN _ _ 18 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=NUM_5:4!12|MId=o040050040121|Strong=3068 20 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 21 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=NUM_5:4!13|MId=o040050040131|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 21 מֹשֶׁ֔ה מֹשֶׁה PROPN _ _ 18 obl _ Gloss=Moses|Ref=NUM_5:4!14|MId=o040050040141|Strong=4872 22 כֵּ֥ן כֵּן ADV _ _ 23 advmod _ Gloss=so|Ref=NUM_5:4!15|MId=o040050040151|Strong=3651|Type=demonstrative 23 עָשׂ֖וּ עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 parataxis _ Gloss=they.did|Ref=NUM_5:4!16|MId=o040050040161|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:040050040171;|Type=qatal 24 בְּנֵ֥י בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 23 nsubj _ Gloss=the.people|Ref=NUM_5:4!17|MId=o040050040171|Strong=1121 25 יִשְׂרָאֵֽל יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 24 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Israel|Ref=NUM_5:4!18|MId=o040050040181|Strong=3478|SpaceAfter=No 26 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 25 punct _ Ref=NUM_5:4!18|SpaceAfter=No 27 פ פ PUNCT _ _ 25 punct _ Ref=NUM_5:4!18 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יַּֽעֲשׂוּ־ *they did* | wayyiqtol · qal | בְּנֵי *the people* | | | | | יְשַׁלְּחוּ *they sent away* | wayyiqtol · piel | בְּנֵי *the people* | ָם *them* | | | | דִּבֶּר *he had spoken* | qatal · piel | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | | עָשׂוּ *they did* | qatal · qal | בְּנֵי *the people* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
