Esther 9:26 אֶסְתֵּר

Who acts: Jews · What happens: call, name, see, come, word · To what, where: pur, letter · Speech: someone speaks in this verse

This is Esther 9:26 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 — Jews — and what happens in the verse to pur, letter, 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.

עַל־כֵּ֡ן קָֽרְאוּ֩ לַיָּמִ֨ים הָאֵ֤לֶּה פוּרִים֙ עַל־שֵׁ֣ם הַפּ֔וּר עַל־כֵּ֕ן עַל־כָּל־דִּבְרֵ֖י הָאִגֶּ֣רֶת הַזֹּ֑את וּמָֽה־רָא֣וּ עַל־כָּ֔כָה וּמָ֥ה הִגִּ֖יעַ אֲלֵיהֶֽם׃

Wherefore they called these days Purim, after the name of pur. Therefore because of all the words of this letter, and of that which they had seen concerning this matter, and that which had come unto them,

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.

The Targum

בְּגִין כֵּן קָרוּ לְיוֹמַיָא הָאִלֵין פּוּרַיָא עַל שׁוּם פַּיְסָא בְּגִין כֵּן נָטְרִין לֵיהּ זְמַן שַׁתָּא בְּשַׁתָּא בְּגִין כֵּן דִיפַרְסְמוּן יוֹמֵי נִסַיָא וּפִתְגָמֵי מְגִלְתָּא הָדָא לְאִשְׁתְּמָעָא לְכָל עַמָא בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל לְמֶהֱוֵיהוֹן יָדְעִין מָה חֲזוּ לְמִקְבַּע יוֹמֵי פּוּרַיָא הָאִלֵין בְּגִין כֵּן דְאִתְעֲבֵיד בְּהוֹן נִסָא לְמָרְדְכַי וְאֶסְתֵּר וְיֵדְעוּן פּוּרְקָנָא דִמְטַת לְהוֹן:

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

English, JPS 1917

Each sentence on its own page, with its tree and pragmatics. A sentence that runs on into the next verse is listed under the verse it begins in.
