    Description

    Nebo in the text

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    Nebo was a city in Moab, east of the Jordan River (Num. 32:3, 38; 1Chr. 5:8). It was one of the cities rebuilt by the Reubenites after the conquest of Canaan (Num. 32:38). Nebo is also mentioned in prophetic oracles against Moab (Isa. 15:2; Jer. 48:1, 22), indicating its significance in Moabite territory. The city was likely named after Mount Nebo, a prominent peak in the Abarim mountain range, from which Moses viewed the Promised Land before his death (Deut. 32:49; 34:1).

    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.
