# Leviticus 23:6 · JPS 1917

<!-- .ven lang=en -->
And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread unto the LORD; seven days ye shall eat unleavened bread.

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** ye · **What happens:** be, eat · **To what, where:** feast, unleavened bread

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Leviticus 23:6 · JPS 1917 in the English of the Jewish Publication Society's 1917 translation, from Mova's open Bible corpus. The page gives the sentence's syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies, parsed by Mova and checked by a teacher model — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (ye), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it. The original of the verse links back to its own tree and to the Targum.
