    Description

    Naamah in the text

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    Naamah was a town in the Judean lowlands, also known as the Shephelah (Josh. 15:41). It is mentioned only once in the Bible, in the list of towns allotted to the tribe of Judah. The exact location of Naamah is unknown, but it was situated in the western foothills of Judah, between the coastal plain and the Judean mountains.

    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.
