    Description

    Sinai Wilderness in the text

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    The Sinai Wilderness, also known as the Wilderness of Sinai, was the desert region in the Sinai Peninsula where the Israelites camped after leaving Egypt (Exodus 19:1-2). It was in this wilderness, at Mount Sinai, that God gave Moses the Ten Commandments and established His covenant with Israel (Leviticus 7:38, Numbers 3:4). The Israelites set up the Tabernacle in the Sinai Wilderness (Numbers 1:1,19; 9:1,5). They took a census of the people there (Numbers 1:19, 26:64). The Sinai Wilderness was one of the early stops on Israel's journey from Egypt to the Promised Land (Numbers 10:12, 33:15-16). The wilderness provided a place of testing and preparation for the nation before they entered Canaan. The Sinai Wilderness is synonymous with the region surrounding Mount Sinai, the place of God's revelation to Moses and Israel.

    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.
