Joshua 6:1 יְהוֹשֻׁעַ

Who acts: none · What happens: shut up, go out, come in · To what, where: Jericho

This is Joshua 6:1 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (Nevi'im — the Prophets). 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 — none — and what happens in the verse to Jericho, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of Targum Jonathan 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 24 chapters of Joshua on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

וִֽירִיחוֹ֙ סֹגֶ֣רֶת וּמְסֻגֶּ֔רֶת מִפְּנֵ֖י בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל אֵ֥ין יוֹצֵ֖א וְאֵ֥ין בָּֽא׃ס

Now Jericho was straitly shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in. —

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.

Pragmatics

form: statement
act: assert
voice: narrator
speech: narration
negation: yes

verb	form · stem	who (A0)	what, whom (A1)	to whom, further (A2)	who makes it happen (AA)
not סֹגֶרֶת [was] shutting	participle active · qal	ירִיחוֹ Jericho
מְסֻגֶּרֶת shut up	participle passive · pual		ירִיחוֹ Jericho

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.

Targum Jonathan

וִירִיחוֹ אֲחִידָא הֲוַת בְּדָשִׁין דְפַרְזְלָא וּמְתַקְפָא בְּעַבְּרִין דִנְחָשׁ מִן קֳדָם בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל לֵית דִנְפַק מִנָהּ לְמֶעְבַּד קְרָבָא וְלֵית דְעָלֵל בְּגַוָהּ לְמִשְׁאַל בִּשְׁלָמָא:

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

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.

Now Jericho was straitly shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in. —
