Edert land skall på södra sidan sträcka sig från öknen Sin utmed Edom; och eder södra gräns skall i öster begynna vid ändan av Salthavet. Treasury i Bibeln Kunskap south quarter 2 Mosebok 23:31 Josuaé 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 Mosebok 14:3 Josuaé 3:16 Josuaé 15:2 Hesekiel 47:8,18 Länkar 4 Mosebok 34:3 Inter • 4 Mosebok 34:3 Flerspråkig • Números 34:3 Spanska • Nombres 34:3 Franska • 4 Mose 34:3 Tyska • 4 Mosebok 34:3 Kinesiska • Numbers 34:3 Engelska • Bible Apps • Bible HubBIBELN eller DEN HELIGA SKRIFT -- innehållande -- NYA TESTAMENTETS KANONISKA BÖCKER -- i överensstämmelse med den av KONUNGEN ÅR 1917 -- This is release 3.7 from Projekt Runeberg (//www.lysator.liu.se/runeberg/) of the Bible.
