    Description

    Rimmon in the text

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    Rimmon is mentioned in Joshua 15:32 as one of the towns allotted to the tribe of Judah in the Negev region. It is listed among the towns in the southern part of Judah's territory. In Joshua 19:7 and 1Ch.4.32, Rimmon is included in the list of towns given to the tribe of Simeon within Judah's inheritance. This suggests that Rimmon was initially part of Judah's territory but was later assigned to Simeon. The exact location of Rimmon is not specified, but it was situated in the Negev, the southern desert region of Judah.

    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.
