    Description

    Nahalol in the text

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    Nahalol, also known as Nahalal, was a Levitical city in the territory allotted to the tribe of Zebulun (Josh. 19:15; 21:35). It was one of the cities given to the Levites from the tribe of Zebulun, along with Kartah, Dimnah, and Rimmon. Nahalol was located in the Galilean hills, but its exact location is uncertain. According to Judges 1:30, the Zebulunites failed to drive out the Canaanite inhabitants of Nahalol, who remained and were put to forced labor.

    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.
