    Description

    Nebo Mount in the text

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    Mount Nebo, also known as Abarim, was a mountain range east of the Jordan River in Moabite territory. It is most notably the place where Moses was directed by God to view the Promised Land before his death (Deut. 32:49; 34:1). God told Moses to go up to Mount Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, and view the land of Canaan, which He was giving to the Israelites (Deut. 3:27; 34:1-4). After seeing the land, Moses died on the mountain and was buried by God in an unknown location in the valley of Moab (Deut. 34:5-6). The Israelites, after wandering in the wilderness, camped in the mountains of Abarim before crossing the Jordan River into Canaan (Num. 33:47-48).

    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.
