Description
Eth-kazin in the text
Eth-kazin is mentioned only once in the Bible, in Joshua 19:13, as part of the description of the border of the territory allotted to the tribe of Zebulun. The verse states that the border "turned eastward to Gath-hepher, to Eth-kazin, and went out to Rimmon, which stretches to Neah."
The exact location of Eth-kazin is uncertain, but it was situated near the towns of Gath-hepher and Neah, likely in the region of Lower Galilee. The name Eth-kazin may be derived from the Hebrew words "eth," meaning "time," and "kazin," meaning "to cut off," possibly referring to a place where some event or decision took place.
Relations
Direct connections
Every entity the graph places in a stated relation with this one, grouped by the kind of link. Each relation is authored once and its inverse derived, so both ends always agree. Rows marked “registry” come from the identity spine rather than from a verse, and a row marked “which bearer is the source’s decision” is one where the name could have meant more than one person. The last group is not a relation at all — it counts the events two entities stand in together.
