In this section, you can explore (in either video or text format) what we've deemed to be the three most important difficulties in the Hebrew, and follow our reasoning as we do a deep dive in scholarly work and explain our conclusions.

| Explanation=Semantics is the field of linguistics that examines the ''meaning'' of language.
}}-->
===Lexical and Phrase-level Semantics===
{{FrontPageBlock
| Explanation='''Lexical semantics''' is the study of word meanings. It examines semantic range (=possible meanings of a word), the relationship between words (e.g. synonymy, hyponymy), as well as the relationship between words and larger concepts (conceptual domains). One component of our approach involves not only the study of the Hebrew word meaning, but also of our own assumptions about word meaning in modern languages. Because the researcher necessarily starts with their own cultural assumptions (in our case, those of Western-trained scholars), this part of the analysis should ideally be done afresh for every culture.
 
'''Phrase-level semantics''' analyses the meaning of syntactic units which are larger than the level of the word and smaller than the level of the clause. Specifically, this layer analyses the meaning of prepositional phrases , construct phrases (a special type of construction in Hebrew), phrases formed by a coordinating ''waw'' conjunction, and noun phrases which consist of a noun plus a determiner (such as "the") or a quantifier (such as "all").

===Verbal Semantics===
{{FrontPageBlock
| Explanation=Verbal Semantics focuses on the relationship between verbs, time and modality, and gives details about each verb in the psalm. This is important for interpretation and translation, and how one analyses a verb can have a significant effect on how it is rendered.

  | Title=Story Behind the Psalm (Unit-level Semantics)
  | Heading Level=3
  | Explanation=The Story Behind triangle tells the "story" (reading from left to right, beginning at the bottom left corner) of what might have prompted the psalmist to write this psalm. The events and ideas on the triangle are taken from the Propositions and Assumptions table below.
 
'''Propositional content''' is the part of the meaning of a clause or sentence that is constant, despite changes in such things as voice, illocutionary force, tense/aspect/mode, person/gender/number, etc. It refers to “the kind of situation or event described by the underlying proposition.”
 
 
Once we have identified the propositional content, we ask, “what would the world have to be like for this [proposition] to be true?” That is, what does this proposition presuppose about the world? What does it entail? What might be implied? In what kind of situation does this make sense? In other words, what '''assumptions''' are bound up with this proposition? We distinguish three kinds of assumptions:
<ul>
<li>Common-ground assumptions</li>
<li>Local-ground assumptions</li>
<li>Playground assumptions</li>
</ul>
 
See the Legend accompanying the chart for more details on the types of assumptions.
 
Understanding the assumptions involved will help translators understand the implicit information present in the text, so that they can decide which of these to make explicit in the translation or biblical helps for their audience to understand the text's larger meaning.

  | Title=Participant Analysis
  | Heading Level=3
  | Explanation=This layer examines each participant in the psalm, whether they have speaking roles in the psalm, or are just referenced in the poem. Often, the relationships and interactions among participants sheds much light on the understanding and translation of a psalm. The summary visuals give a view of the participants in the psalm as a whole, while the tables list the participant information for each clause.
