Edom

אֱדוֹם

Edom, a nation descended from Esau that was often in conflict with Israel.

Where the story of Edom happens Edom, and 12 places the claims reach, framed to them: Edom, Salt_Valley, Zin, Addar, Egypt, Elath, Hor_Mount, Kadesh, Midian, Negeb, Paran, Red_Sea, Salt_Sea. Each dot is a coordinate from the gazetteer. The coastline is a modern one, simplified; no border, road or settlement of any period is drawn, and no line joins two points, because the rows state where and not in what order.EdomSalt_ValleyZinAddarEgyptElathHor_MountMidianNegebParanRed_SeaSalt_Sea

Description

Edom in the text

In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

Edom was a nation located southeast of Israel, in the area that is now southern Jordan. The Edomites were descendants of Esau, the twin brother of Israel (or 'Jacob') (Israel). The name Edom means "red", referring to Esau being born red and selling his birthright for red stew.

Edom and Israel had a tumultuous relationship throughout their history. During the Exodus, Edom refused to let the Israelites pass through their territory. Edom was later defeated by King Saul and subjugated under King David. However, they rebelled in later years and were able to establish their independence from Judah.

The prophets Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Amos and Obadiah all prophesied against Edom for its arrogance and for standing by when Judah was invaded by Babylon. Edom helped the Babylonians loot Jerusalem and expressed joy over its destruction. As a result, the prophets declared that Edom would face God's wrath and be completely destroyed.

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.

The pattern

Where Edom is named

Every book of the corpus in the order it is read, each as wide as the chapters it holds. A bar is the verses of that book which write the name, and the flat stretches are as much of the answer as the bars.

Where the name is written across the corpus. 100 verses across 22 of 66 books; 44 write the name nowhere.

100 verses across 22 of 66 books; 44 write the name nowhere. Named in Genesis (7), Exodus (1), Numbers (9), Deuteronomy (1), Joshua (2), Judges (3), 1 Samuel (5), 2 Samuel (3), 1 Kings (7), 2 Kings (11), 1 Chronicles (4), 2 Chronicles (9), Psalms (8), Isaiah (4), Jeremiah (8), Lamentations (2), Ezekiel (6), Daniel (1), Joel (1), Amos (5), Obadiah (2) and Malachi (1).

Edom is named in 100 verses, and the name is written 108 times in them — 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. 44 of the 66 books never write it. A verse that tells of this subject without writing the name is not counted here.
