Genesis 23:8 · JPS 1917

And he spoke with them, saying: 'If it be your mind that I should bury my dead out of my sight, hear me, and entreat for me to Ephron the son of Zohar,

Who acts: Abraham, I, my · What happens: speak, say, be, bury, hear, entreat · To what, where: mind, dead, sight, me, Ephron · Speech: someone speaks here

This is Genesis 23:8 · 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 (Abraham, I, my), 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.
