Esther 4:17 אֶסְתֵּר

Who acts: Mordecai, Esther · What happens: go, do, command · To what, where: way, Mordecai · Speech: someone speaks in this verse

This is Esther 4:17 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (Ketuvim — the Writings). 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 — Mordecai, Esther — and what happens in the verse to way, Mordecai, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of the Targum 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 10 chapters of Esther on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

וַֽיַּעֲבֹ֖ר מָרְדֳּכָ֑י וַיַּ֕עַשׂ כְּכֹ֛ל אֲשֶׁר־צִוְּתָ֥ה עָלָ֖יו אֶסְתֵּֽר׃ס

So Mordecai went his way, and did according to all that Esther had commanded him.

The 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.

MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant. A0 is the one who acts, A1 what the act is done to or is about, A2 a further participant; AA, with a causative verb, the one who makes it happen.

The Targum

וּנְסֵס וּכְנֵס מָרְדְכַי וַעֲבַר עַל חֶדְוַת חַגָא דְפִסְחָא וְצוֹמָא גְזַר וִיתֵב עַל קִטְמָא וַעֲבַד כְּכָל דִי פַקְדַת עֲלוֹי אֶסְתֵּר:

The Aramaic translation read beside the Hebrew. Text only: Mova has no Aramaic parser yet.
