Genesis 28:6 בְּרֵאשִׁית

Who acts: Esau, Isaac, Thou · What happens: see, bless, send away, take, give, say · To what, where: Jacob, Isaac, wife, charge · Speech: someone speaks in this verse

This is Genesis 28:6 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (The Torah). 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 — Esau, Isaac, Thou — and what happens in the verse to Jacob, Isaac, wife, charge, 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 50 chapters of Genesis on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

וַיַּ֣רְא עֵשָׂ֗ו כִּֽי־בֵרַ֣ךְ יִצְחָק֮ אֶֽת־יַעֲקֹב֒ וְשִׁלַּ֤ח אֹתוֹ֙ פַּדֶּ֣נָֽה אֲרָ֔םפַּדֶּ֣נָֽה אֲרָ֔ם פַּדֶּ֣נָֽה אֲרָ֔ם לָקַֽחַת־ל֥וֹ מִשָּׁ֖ם אִשָּׁ֑ה בְּבָרֲכ֣וֹ אֹת֔וֹ וַיְצַ֤ו עָלָיו֙ לֵאמֹ֔ר לֹֽא־תִקַּ֥ח אִשָּׁ֖ה מִבְּנ֥וֹת כְּנָֽעַן׃

Now Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him away to Paddan-aram, to take him a wife from thence; and that as he blessed him he gave him a charge, saying: 'Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan';

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.

Targum Onkelos

וַחֲזָא עֵשָׂו אֲרֵי בָרִיךְ יִצְחָק יָת יַעֲקֹב וְשַׁלַּח יָתֵהּ לְפַדַּן אֲרָם לְמִסַּב לֵהּ מִתַּמָּן אִתְּתָא כַּד בָּרִיךְ יָתֵהּ וּפַקֵּיד עֲלוֹהִי לְמֵימַר לָא תִסַּב אִתְּתָא מִבְּנַת כְּנָעַן
