    Description

    Bamoth in the text

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    Bamoth is mentioned in Numbers 21:19-20 as one of the places where the Israelites camped during their journey through the wilderness after the Exodus from Egypt. It was located in the territory of Moab, near the Arnon River. The name "Bamoth" means "high places" in Hebrew, suggesting that it may have been situated on an elevated location.

    Relations

    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.

    Bamoth is named in 2 verses — occurrences of the name in the Hebrew or Greek, counted in the versification of the Berean Standard Bible (v5.7). Every book of the corpus is drawn, its width its share of the 1,189 chapters. 65 of the 66 books never write it. A verse that tells of this subject without writing the name is not counted here.
