    Description

    Mamre in the text

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    Mamre was a location near Hebron in Canaan, closely associated with the life of Abraham. It was at Mamre that Abraham pitched his tent and built an altar to the Lord (Genesis 13:18). Abraham's allies, Mamre, Eshcol, and Aner, lived in this area (Genesis 14:13, 24). The Lord appeared to Abraham at Mamre, accompanied by three men, and promised that Sarah would bear a son (Genesis 18:1-15). The cave of Machpelah, which Abraham purchased as a burial site for his family, was located in the field of Ephron the Hittite, near Mamre (Genesis 23:17-19; 25:9; 49:30; 50:13). Abraham, Isaac, and Israel (or 'Jacob') all lived at Mamre (Genesis 35:27).

    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.

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.
