Description
Diblathaim in the text
Diblathaim, also referred to as Almon-diblathaim or Beth-diblathaim, was a place mentioned in the Old Testament where the Israelites camped during their wilderness wanderings after leaving Egypt (Numbers 33:46-47). It was one of the last stops before they entered the Promised Land. The name "Diblathaim" means "two cakes of figs," possibly indicating the presence of fig trees in the area. Beth-diblathaim is mentioned in Jeremiah 48:22 as one of the cities in Moab that would face God's judgment. The exact location of Diblathaim is unknown, but it was likely situated in the plains of Moab, east of the Jordan River.
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.
