    Description

    Zered in the text

    In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

    The Zered Brook (also called the Valley of Zered or the Brook of Zered) was a significant geographical marker in Israel's journey from Egypt to the Promised Land. After wandering in the wilderness for 38 years, the Lord told the Israelites to cross the Zered Brook, signifying the end of the wilderness wanderings for that generation (Dt.2:13-14). The crossing of the Zered marked the beginning of the conquest of the lands east of the Jordan. The Zered Brook flowed into the southeastern end of the Dead Sea, forming the boundary between Edom to the south and Moab to the north. It is probably to be identified with the modern Wadi al-Hasa.

    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.

    Zered is named in 3 verses, and the name is written 4 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. 64 of the 66 books never write it. A verse that tells of this subject without writing the name is not counted here.
