    Description

    Kue in the text

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    Kue is mentioned in 1Ki.10.28 and 2Ch.1.16 as one of the places from which King Solomon acquired horses. The verses state that Solomon's horses were imported from Egypt and Kue, with the king's merchants purchasing them from Kue at a fixed price. The exact location of Kue is not specified in the Bible, but it is likely a region known for horse breeding and trading in the ancient Near East.

    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.
