Where

And the LORD God planted a garden in Eden, in the east, where He placed the man He had formed.

The name of the first river is the Pishon; it winds through the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold.

But the LORD God called out to the man, “Where are you?”

And the LORD said to Cain, “Where is your brother Abel?” “I do not know!” he answered. “Am I my brother’s keeper?”

From that land he went forth into Assyria, where he built Nineveh, Rehoboth-Ir, Calah,

From the Negev he journeyed from place to place toward Bethel, until he came to the place between Bethel and Ai where his tent had formerly been pitched,

…to the site where he had built the altar. And there Abram called on the name of the LORD.

After Lot had departed, the LORD said to Abram, “Now lift up your eyes from the place where you are, and look to the north and south and east and west,

So Abram moved his tent and went to live near the Oaks of Mamre at Hebron, where he built an altar to the LORD.

“Hagar, servant of Sarai,” he said, “where have you come from, and where are you going?” “I am running away from my mistress Sarai,” she replied.

“Hagar, servant of Sarai,” he said, “where have you come from, and where are you going?” “I am running away from my mistress Sarai,” she replied.

And to you and your descendants I will give the land where you are residing—all the land of Canaan—as an eternal possession; and I will be their God.”

“Where is your wife Sarah?” they asked. “There, in the tent,” he replied.

They called out to Lot, saying, “Where are the men who came to you tonight? Send them out to us so we can have relations with them!”

Look, there is a town nearby where I can flee, and it is a small place. Please let me flee there—is it not a small place? Then my life will be saved.”

Early the next morning, Abraham got up and returned to the place where he had stood before the LORD.

So when God destroyed the cities of the plain, He remembered Abraham, and He brought Lot out of the catastrophe that destroyed the cities where he had lived.

Lot and his two daughters left Zoar and settled in the mountains—for he was afraid to stay in Zoar—where they lived in a cave.

Then God heard the voice of the boy, and the angel of God called to Hagar from heaven, “What is wrong, Hagar? Do not be afraid, for God has heard the voice of the boy where he lies.

Then Isaac said to his father Abraham, “My father!” “Here I am, my son,” he replied. “The fire and the wood are here,” said Isaac, “but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?”

The LORD appeared to Isaac and said, “Do not go down to Egypt. Settle in the land where I tell you.

And may He give the blessing of Abraham to you and your descendants, so that you may possess the land where you dwell as a foreigner, the land God gave to Abraham.”

“My brothers,” Jacob asked the shepherds, “where are you from?” “We are from Haran,” they answered.

When Laban heard the news about his sister’s son Jacob, he ran out to meet him. He embraced him and kissed him and brought him to his home, where Jacob told him all that had happened.

So Jacob sent word and called Rachel and Leah to the field where his flocks were,

I am the God of Bethel, where you anointed the pillar and made a solemn vow to Me. Now get up, leave this land at once, and return to your native land.’”

He instructed the one in the lead, “When my brother Esau meets you and asks, ‘To whom do you belong, where are you going, and whose animals are these before you?’

…but Jacob went on to Succoth, where he built a house for himself and shelters for his livestock; that is why the place was called Succoth.

And the plot of ground where he pitched his tent, he purchased from the sons of Hamor, Shechem’s father, for a hundred pieces of silver.

Then God went up from the place where He had spoken with him.

So Jacob set up a pillar in the place where God had spoken with him—a stone marker—and he poured out a drink offering on it and anointed it with oil.

Jacob called the place where God had spoken with him Bethel.

Jacob returned to his father Isaac at Mamre, near Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had stayed.

For their possessions were too great for them to dwell together; the land where they stayed could not support them because of their livestock.

Now Jacob lived in the land where his father had resided, the land of Canaan.

“I am looking for my brothers,” Joseph replied. “Can you please tell me where they are pasturing their flocks?”

He asked the men of that place, “Where is the shrine prostitute who was beside the road at Enaim?” “No shrine prostitute has been here,” they answered.

Meanwhile, Joseph had been taken down to Egypt, where an Egyptian named Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh and captain of the guard, bought him from the Ishmaelites who had taken him there.

So Joseph’s master took him and had him thrown into the prison where the king’s prisoners were confined. While Joseph was there in the prison,

…and imprisoned them in the house of the captain of the guard, the same prison where Joseph was confined.

And when Joseph saw his brothers, he recognized them, but he treated them as strangers and spoke harshly to them. “Where have you come from?” he asked. “From the land of Canaan,” they replied. “We are here to buy food.”

At the place where they lodged for the night, one of them opened his sack to get feed for his donkey, and he saw his silver in the mouth of the sack.

When Pharaoh heard about this matter, he sought to kill Moses. But Moses fled from Pharaoh and settled in the land of Midian, where he sat down beside a well.

“So where is he?” their father asked. “Why did you leave the man behind? Invite him to have something to eat.”

“Do not come any closer,” God said. “Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.”

I also established My covenant with them to give them the land of Canaan, the land where they lived as foreigners.

But if you will not let My people go, I will send swarms of flies upon you and your officials and your people and your houses. The houses of the Egyptians and even the ground where they stand will be full of flies.

But on that day I will give special treatment to the land of Goshen, where My people live; no swarms of flies will be found there. In this way you will know that I, the LORD, am in the land.

The only place where it did not hail was in the land of Goshen, where the Israelites lived.

The only place where it did not hail was in the land of Goshen, where the Israelites lived.

They are to take some of the blood and put it on the sides and tops of the doorframes of the houses where they eat the lambs.

The blood on the houses where you are staying will be a sign; when I see the blood, I will pass over you. No plague will fall on you to destroy you when I strike the land of Egypt.

Then they came to Elim, where there were twelve springs of water and seventy palm trees, and they camped there by the waters.

Understand that the LORD has given you the Sabbath; that is why on the sixth day He will give you bread for two days. On the seventh day, everyone must stay where he is; no one may leave his place.”

The Israelites ate manna forty years, until they came to a land where they could settle; they ate manna until they reached the border of Canaan.

Moses’ father-in-law Jethro, along with Moses’ wife and sons, came to him in the desert, where he was encamped at the mountain of God.

And the people stood at a distance as Moses approached the thick darkness where God was.

You are to make for Me an altar of earth, and sacrifice on it your burnt offerings and peace offerings, your sheep and goats and cattle. In every place where I cause My name to be remembered, I will come to you and bless you.

If, however, he did not lie in wait, but God allowed it to happen, then I will appoint for you a place where he may flee.

For the generations to come, this burnt offering shall be made regularly at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting before the LORD, where I will meet you to speak with you.

Place the altar in front of the veil that is before the ark of the Testimony—before the mercy seat that is over the Testimony—where I will meet with you.

Grind some of it into fine powder and place it in front of the Testimony in the Tent of Meeting, where I will meet with you. It shall be most holy to you.

The LORD continued, “There is a place near Me where you are to stand upon a rock,

…all the rest of the bull—he must take outside the camp to a ceremonially clean place where the ashes are poured out, and there he must burn it on a wood fire on the ash heap.

He is to lay his hand on the head of the goat and slaughter it at the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered before the LORD. It is a sin offering.

And he is to lay his hand on the head of the sin offering and slaughter it as a sin offering at the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered.

“Tell Aaron and his sons that this is the law of the sin offering: In the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered, the sin offering shall be slaughtered before the LORD; it is most holy.

The guilt offering must be slaughtered in the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered, and the priest shall splatter its blood on all sides of the altar.

…and a white swelling or a reddish-white spot develops where the boil was, he must present himself to the priest.

Then he is to slaughter the lamb in the sanctuary area where the sin offering and burnt offering are slaughtered. Like the sin offering, the guilt offering belongs to the priest; it is most holy.

You must not follow the practices of the land of Egypt, where you used to live, and you must not follow the practices of the land of Canaan, into which I am bringing you. You must not walk in their customs.

You are therefore to keep all My statutes and ordinances, so that the land where I am bringing you to live will not vomit you out.

You must send away male and female alike; send them outside the camp so they will not defile their camp, where I dwell among them.”

“Please do not leave us,” Moses said, “since you know where we should camp in the wilderness, and you can serve as our eyes.

Where can I get meat for all these people? For they keep crying out to me, ‘Give us meat to eat!’

From Kibroth-hattaavah the people moved on to Hazeroth, where they remained for some time.

Is the land where they live good or bad? Are the cities where they dwell open camps or fortifications?

They went up through the Negev and came to Hebron, where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the descendants of Anak, dwelled. It had been built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.

Place the staffs in the Tent of Meeting in front of the Testimony, where I meet with you.

These were the waters of Meribah, where the Israelites quarreled with the LORD, and He showed His holiness among them.

…how our fathers went down to Egypt, where we lived many years. The Egyptians mistreated us and our fathers,

From there they went on to Beer, the well where the LORD said to Moses, “Gather the people so that I may give them water.”

…and from Bamoth to the valley in Moab where the top of Pisgah overlooks the wasteland.

And the angel of the LORD moved on ahead and stood in a narrow place where there was no room to turn to the right or left.

Then Balak said to him, “Please come with me to another place where you can see them. You will only see the outskirts of their camp—not all of them. And from there, curse them for me.”

So Balak took him to the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, where he built seven altars and offered a bull and a ram on each altar.

Then they burned all the cities where the Midianites had lived, as well as all their encampments,

They set out from Marah and came to Elim, where there were twelve springs and seventy palm trees, and they camped there.

They set out from Alush and camped at Rephidim, where there was no water for the people to drink.

But if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land before you, those you allow to remain will become barbs in your eyes and thorns in your sides; they will harass you in the land where you settle.

…where it will turn from Azmon, join the Brook of Egypt, and end at the Sea.

Do not pollute the land where you live, for bloodshed pollutes the land, and no atonement can be made for the land on which the blood is shed, except by the blood of the one who shed it.

Do not defile the land where you live and where I dwell. For I, the LORD, dwell among the Israelites.”

Do not defile the land where you live and where I dwell. For I, the LORD, dwell among the Israelites.”

Where can we go? Our brothers have made our hearts melt, saying: ‘The people are larger and taller than we are; the cities are large, with walls up to the heavens. We even saw the descendants of the Anakim there.’”

…and in the wilderness, where the LORD your God carried you, as a man carries his son, all the way by which you traveled until you reached this place.”

…a land where you will eat food without scarcity, where you will lack nothing; a land whose rocks are iron and whose hills are ready to be mined for copper.

…a land where you will eat food without scarcity, where you will lack nothing; a land whose rocks are iron and whose hills are ready to be mined for copper.

The Israelites traveled from Beeroth Bene-jaakan to Moserah, where Aaron died and was buried, and Eleazar his son succeeded him as priest.
