    Description

    Jazer Sea in the text

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    The Jazer Sea is a poetic expression used by the prophet Jeremiah in his lament over Moab (Jeremiah 48:32). In this passage, Jeremiah mourns the destruction of Moab and its renowned vineyards, particularly those of Jazer. The phrase "Sea of Jazer" is a metaphorical reference to the abundance and fertility of the vineyards in the region of Jazer. It emphasizes the extent and significance of the vineyards, comparing them to a vast sea. This poetic language highlights the devastating impact of the destruction of these vineyards on the people of Moab and the region's economy.

    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.
