Description

Kinah in the text

In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

Kinah was a town located in the Negev, the southern region of Judah (Joshua 15:22). It is mentioned only once in the Bible, in the context of the list of towns allotted to the tribe of Judah during the division of the Promised Land under Joshua. No further information about the town's history or significance is provided in the biblical text. The exact location of Kinah is unknown, but it was likely situated in the arid wilderness region south of Hebron.

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.
