    Description

    Terah in the text

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    Terah was a place where the Israelites camped during their wilderness journey, as recorded in Numbers 33:27-28. It is listed among the various campsites in the itinerary of the Israelites' travels from Egypt to the Plains of Moab. Terah is mentioned between the campsites of Tahath and Mithcah, indicating its location along the route. However, the exact geographical location of Terah is unknown, and no other details about this campsite are provided in the Bible. The mention of Terah in the itinerary serves to document the stages of the Israelites' journey and their obedience to God's command to keep a record of their travels (Num. 33:1-2).

    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.
