Bible Location
Meaning: that speaks or prophesies · 3 cross references · Modern-day map available
This Nebo entry refers to the Benjaminite town represented in the return-from-exile lists, not the Moabite town or Mount Nebo. It is important because it preserves another distinct biblical place using the same name. First appears in Ezra 2:29.1
AI summary: Nebo here should be kept separate from the better-known transjordanian entries. Ezra and Nehemiah show it as a restored community location among those returning from Babylon, and the additional reference confirms it as a real settlement rather than only a list-name. The cross references present this Nebo as a Benjaminite or post-exilic town with a distinct identity from the eastern Nebo traditions.1
