The cantillation accents encode a state machine. Each verse is a node — condition, observation, or verdict.
Each verse splits into a binary tree at the etnachta accent. Left = PROCESS (conditions, observations). Right = RESULT (verdicts, actions).
Hebrew grammar declares the logic: IF, AND (sibling leaves), OR, NOT. The verse IS the code.
Tree structure maps directly to Python: etnachta = if/then, siblings = AND, depth = nesting. No interpretation — just translation.
48 verses of logic funnel into exactly three outcomes — confirmed by Mishnah Negaim.
Two positive findings (hair white AND deeper than skin). Priest confirms tzaraat.
Inconclusive — tests negative but not resolved. Isolate 7 days, re-examine.
After quarantine: no spread, no change. Priest releases.
Each verse shows: Hebrew text, leaf grid, binary tree, and derived Python.
