Description
Kiriath-huzoth in the text
Kiriath-huzoth is mentioned in Numbers 22:39 as a place to which Balak, the king of Moab, brought Balaam after Balaam arrived in Moab. Balak had summoned Balaam to curse the Israelites who were encamped on the plains of Moab. The exact location of Kiriath-huzoth is not specified, and no further details about the place are given in the Bible.
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.
