U+059B "֛" Hebrew Accent Tevir Unicode Character

U+059B "֛" Hebrew Accent Tevir is a cantillation mark used in the Masoretic Text of the Hebrew Bible, functioning as a disjunctive accent that indicates a pause or break in the reading of a verse. It typically appears above or to the left of a stressed syllable, often serving as a secondary divider within a clause that is already separated by a stronger accent like Etnachta or Sof Pasuk. This mark, which is shaped like a small vertical or diagonal stroke, guides the liturgical chanting and grammatical parsing of the biblical text by signaling where a slight pause occurs but not a full stop.
