Description

Hazar-susah in the text

In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

Hazar-susah, meaning "village of horses," was a town located in the Negev, the southern region of the Promised Land. It was part of the territory allotted to the tribe of Simeon within the inheritance of Judah (Josh 19:5). No further details about Hazar-susah are provided in the Bible, and its exact location remains unknown. The name suggests that the town may have been known for its horses or horse-related activities.

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.
