    Description

    Luhith in the text

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    Luhith is mentioned in the prophecies of Isaiah and Jeremiah concerning the judgment of Moab. In Isaiah 15:5 and Jeremiah 48:5, the "ascent of Luhith" is described as a place where the people of Moab will go up with weeping and mourning. The exact location of Luhith is not specified in the Bible, but it is associated with the territory of Moab, east of the Dead Sea. The prophecies indicate that Luhith will be a place of sorrow and distress for the Moabites when God's judgment comes upon them.

    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.
