Die Ecke gegen Mittag soll anfangen an der Wüste Zin bei Edom, daß eure Grenze gegen Mittag sei vom Ende des Salzmeeres, das gegen Morgen liegt, Biblische Schatzkammer south quarter 2.Mose 23:31 Josua 15:1-12 Hesekiel 47:13,19 salt sea eastward. 70 miles in length, and 18 in breadth. Viewing this sea from the spot where the Jordan discharges its waters into it, it takes a south-easterly direction, visible for ten or fifteen miles, when it disappears in a curve towards the east. Its surface is generally unruffled, from the hollow of the basin in which it lies scarcely admitting the free passage necessary for a strong breeze; it is however, for the same reason, subject to whirlwinds or squalls of short duration. The mountains on each side are apparently separated by a distance of eight miles; but the expanse of water at this point has been supposed not to exceed five or six; as it advances towards the south, it evidently increases in breadth. The acrid saltness of its waters is much greater than that of the sea; and of such specific gravity that bodies will float on it that would sink in common sea-water. It is probably on this account that few fish can live in it; though the monks of St. Saba affirmed to Dr. Shaw, that they had seen fish caught in it. 1.Mose 14:3 Josua 3:16 Josua 15:2 Hesekiel 47:8,18 Links 4.Mose 34:3 Interlinear • 4.Mose 34:3 Mehrsprachig • Números 34:3 Spanisch • Nombres 34:3 Französisch • 4 Mose 34:3 Deutsch • 4.Mose 34:3 Chinesisch • Numbers 34:3 Englisch • Bible Apps • Bible HubLutherbibel 1912 |
