Description

Edrei in the text

In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

Edrei was one of the chief cities of Bashan, located east of the Jordan River. It was ruled by Og, king of Bashan, who was defeated by the Israelites under Moses' leadership as they approached the Promised Land (Numbers 21:33-35).

After its capture, the city was allotted to the half-tribe of Manasseh. Edrei is mentioned alongside Ashtaroth as one of the main cities in Bashan. The ruins of Edrei are identified with modern-day Der'a in Syria.

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.
