Description

Iye-abarim in the text

In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

Iye-abarim was a place where the Israelites camped during their wilderness journey, as recorded in the book of Numbers. It was located on the border of Moab, east of the Jordan River (Numbers 21:11; 33:44). The name "Iye-abarim" means "ruins of Abarim" or "ruins of the crossings." It was one of the last campsites before the Israelites entered the Promised Land.

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.
